Definition of Extended Reality in brief

Extended Reality is the umbrella term for an environment that blends the physical and virtual world together combining Augmented Reality, Mixed Reality and Virtual Reality. Extended reality has many applications for enhanced consumer experiences and the Immersive XR Stage is just one example of how it’s changing the corporate event landscape

How XR technology is used across various industries

1. Healthcare Hospitals, for example, are using VR to help patients regain dexterity and motion. For healthcare professionals, XR is also being used for training and assisting in the performance of critical procedures.

2. Manufacturing and Engineering On a larger scale, an organization building a new plant, for example, can virtually walk around the 3D plans for the building at scale. XR is also being increasingly used for employee safety training.

3. Management Organizations use XR experiences to hire new employees with no location limitations, meeting them in a shared virtual space and even testing them on relevant practices or procedures. Management can securely share content with specific employees, as well as track employee use, engagement, and performance, all within one cloud-based system, and from anywhere in the world.

Challenges XR faces

1. First, XR technologies collect and process huge amounts of very detailed and personal data about people. So this data needs to be protected as privacy and trust is of utmost important to everyone.

2.Secondly, the cost of implementing the technology needs to come down; otherwise, many companies will be unable to invest in it.

1. Thirdly, There are significant technical and hardware issues to solve that include but are not limited to the display, power and thermal, motion tracking, connectivity and common illumination—where virtual objects in a real world are indistinguishable from real objects especially as lighting shifts.

Future of Extended Reality

With XR, we can be physically local while at the same time digitally global. So, the way we work, interact, and play with one another is going to fundamentally change because of extended reality. Also, our experiences and how we interact with computers will shift towards fully immersive environments. In a couple of years, we may find that students attend school with global peers in virtual environments. Physical office environments may become obsolete. Sporting events may be attended remotely in VR.

The future of VR will include an immersive digital experience.
