What's the Difference Between XR, VR, AR, and MR?
The metaverse needs to break away from being tied so closely to virtual reality because in many cases the metaverse will be best experienced through augmented reality or mixed reality. The problem is that all of the XR terms – including VR, AR, and MR – are used so interchangeably without consideration for what is actually being referred to. Thus, Ryan put together a refresher video on the differences between Extended Reality (XR), Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR) – along with a number of XR apps that are premiere examples of the metaverse in motion.
