    For me, augmented reality(AR) and virtual reality(VR) are't new concepts. Once in my childhood, I dreamed that with the help of virtual reality, someone else would sit at school instead of me. It was my secret plan) My eight-year-old nephew recently asked me to explain the difference between VR, AR, MR, and RR. Who has had exciting ideas? How can this be explained? I only found VR vs AR vs MR vs XR: Plunge into Virtual Universe | Jelvix[^]this

      Aw, there's still so much of the alphabet to go through. Wait until they're done creating new version of reality and then answer the the tyke. An interesting option for you: in CR (Convenient Reality) he never asked the question. . . I mean, really, in the subject you have VR, AR, MR, and XR whilst withing the body of your post have

        Having your holograph sit in on a class would be "mixed reality". Augmented and mixed include reality, virtual does not. Mixed reality is aware of reality (via space mapping), the others are not. XR just means any of the "_R" types. RR is rest and relaxation.

          **Reality**, dude. What a concept!

          The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

            I saw a chair I wanted but couldn't decide if it fit in the car I was driving, and I didn't want to haul it out to the parking lot, etc. A virtual box or virtual passenger door / trunk would have been handy. Virtually pack your moving van to get it right the first time, and so on. No more "packing problems".
