It's the year 2025 and you begin your day by drinking your morning coffee in Paris. you visit your parents in India fight aliens in Mars during your lunch break and attend a business meeting in New York all from the comfort of your office in Zurich.


This is made possible by extended reality the next evolution in human computer and environment interaction extended reality or XR.

We will discuss about the mind-blowing technology which is revolutionizing the present and the future that is none other than immersive technology.

Immersive technology comprising of  virtual reality (VR) augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR) are amongst the fastest growing and fascinating technology .



Immersive technology create or extend reality and this is done by immersing the user in a digital environment having application in different domains.

This technology is gaining momentum with every passing day and are transforming and helping us re imagine the future.

Virtual reality (VR)  applications use headsets to fully immerse users in a computer-simulated reality. These headsets generate realistic sounds and images, engaging all five senses to create an interactive virtual world.
 

Augmented Reality (AR) is not a new reality, but a layer on top of your existing one. Rather than immersing users, AR relies on a device – usually the camera in your phone or tablet – to overlay digital graphics and sounds into a real-world environment. Pokémon Go and Snapchat filters are commonplace examples of this kind of technology.
 


Mixed Reality (MR) lies somewhere in between VR and AR. It blends real and virtual worlds to create complex environments where physical and digital elements can interact in real time. Like AR, it overlays synthetic content in a real-world environment; and like VR.
