Augmented reality (AR) is a Branch of XR Technology! Extended Reality (XR) is an umbrella term encapsulating Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), Mixed Reality (MR), and everything in between.
AR is an interactive experience of a real-world environment where the objects that reside in the real world are enhanced by computer-generated perceptual information.
“AR is a technology that enhances or augments your experience of the world around you.” – Tom Emrich
VR is the use of computer technology to create a simulated environment. It provides complete immersion and creates a sense of physical presence in real or imagined worlds.
MR "is a blend of physical and digital worlds, unlocking the links between human, computer, and environment interaction. This new reality is based on advancements in computer vision, graphical processing power, display technology, and input systems." – Microsoft
