Overview

All immersive technologies, such as Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR), are together referred to as Extended Reality (XR). It describes settings where virtual and real-world components coexist and interact in real time, as well as when digital and physical objects are present.

Thus, the term “extended reality” (XR) provides a broad definition for the entire range of immersive technologies, from completely virtual settings to augmented environments that enhance and interact with the real world. Because of its adaptability, XR may be used in a wide range of sectors, such as manufacturing, education, gaming, and healthcare, where immersive experiences can improve teamwork, training, and visualization.
