User Experience for Extended Reality

Extended Reality (XR) is an umbrella term that encompasses Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR). These technologies blend the physical and digital worlds to create immersive experiences. VR transports users to entirely virtual environments, AR overlays digital content onto the real world, and MR allows digital and physical elements to interact in real time.
