By Vishakha Thakur
Mixed Reality is one of the most important elements of the metaverse as it essentially offers the users a 3D immersive virtual experience. Mixed Reality (MR) combines the best aspects of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR). With Mixed Reality, we can share knowledge and understand the world with a smart and connected approach.
What is Mixed Reality?
Mixed Reality combines both real and virtual entities to produce new simulated environments and visuals. This reality technology is based on advancements in computer vision, graphical processing, display technologies, input systems, and cloud computing.
It overlays images or videos over a screen showing reality through a mobile camera, smart glasses, or headsets. This ability to interact with both physical and virtual objects gives mixed reality technologies a huge number of potential applications.
Applications of Mixed Reality
The applications of MR technology spans in various sectors such as Education, Medical, Engineering and many more.
Education:
It makes learning more interesting and interactive via 3-d projections and simulations.
Medicine:
It helps medical professionals and practitioners view and share patient records and data in a more interactive manner providing a base for image-guided surgery.
Video conferencing & Skype calls:
Mixed Reality meetings are often impressive and interactive.
Holograms:
Mixed Reality helps people generate holograms to show scenes or objects or avatars.
Engineering:
Mixed reality in engineering is going to be a game changer.
There can be real-time simulation of engineering processes. MR can also be used with an industrial IoT device to monitor services
According to various reports, all mixed reality technologies will have a massive impact on our lives in the future. It will not only impact all work-related situations but will also impact us on a personal level.
