Extended reality (XR) is a term referring to all real-and-virtual combined environments and human-machine interactions generated by computer technology and wearables. It includes representative forms such as augmented reality (AR), augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) and the areas interpolated among them. The levels of reality range from partially sensory inputs to immersive reality, also called virtual reality. — Wikipedia
