The worlds of Mixed Reality (MR) and Extended Reality (XR) are moving fast, relative to Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR). Here’s a quick summary from What really is the difference between AR/MR/VR/XR?:
- VR is immersing people into a completely virtual environment
- AR is creating an overlay of virtual content, but can’t interact with the environment
- MR is a mixed of virtual reality and the reality, it creates virtual objects that can interact with the actual environment
- XR brings all three Reality (AR, VR, MR) together under one term
And here’s a video showing just how immersive these experiences are likely to be in the near future:
