Answer

Augment derives from the Natural Language System (NLS), a revolutionary text-based interface developed at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the early 1960s. NLS was a pioneering effort in human-computer interaction that allowed users to communicate with the system using natural English sentences. It laid the foundation for the development of future augmented reality systems by introducing the concept of natural language processing and real-time interaction with computers.
