The sensory information that is superimposed may be harmful or beneficial, adding to or subtracting from the natural environment. This experience is so completely integrated with the real world that it appears to be a realistic component of the setting. In contrast to virtual reality, which substitutes the user's real-world surroundings with a simulated one, augmented reality modifies one's continuous perspective of a real environment.
Mixed reality and computer-mediated reality are words that are related to augmented reality and are mostly interchangeable. A simulated experience known as virtual reality (VR) can be quite similar to or very dissimilar from the actual world. Virtual reality has applications in business, education (such as healthcare or military training), and entertainment especially video games such as virtual meetings.
Augmented reality and mixed reality, sometimes known as extended reality or XR, are further different forms of VR-style technology. Present-day standard virtual reality systems either employ virtual reality headsets or multi-projected environments to deliver convincing sights, audio, and other sensations that simulate a user's physical presence in a virtual world.
A user can see around the virtual world, move within it, and interact with virtual features or objects while utilizing virtual reality technology. The impression can also be produced by specially built rooms with numerous large screens, although it is most frequently produced by VR headsets that have a head-mounted display with a small screen in front of the eyes. Virtual reality normally includes audio and visual feedback, but haptic technology may also enable additional types of sensory and force feedback.
