Virtual Reality, Mixed Reality & Augmented Reality
Virtual reality (VR) is an artificial environment that is created with software and presented to the user in such a way that the user suspends belief and accepts it as a real environment. On a computer, virtual reality is primarily experienced through two of the five senses: sight and sound. - Whatis.com
Augmented reality (AR) is a live, direct or indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented (or supplemented) by computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data - Wikipedia
Mixed reality (MR) - sometimes referred to as hybrid reality - is the merging of real and virtual worlds to produce new environments and visualizations where physical and digital objects co-exist and interact in real time. - Wikipedia
