Mixed Reality Implementation

Mixed Reality, also referred to as Hybrid Reality is a combination or merging of real and virtual worlds, where both of them can co-exist and interact in real time. Usually, in the MR environment, users will be able to navigate through the real and virtual world at the same time. Instead of replacing the real world, mixed enhances it, offering access to digital information on top of the world in front of us.

Users’ Experience of Mixed Reality:

Users are already well accustomed with the term VR and have experienced the feel of technology through VR headsets or VR gears. But again only a small population owns VR headsets, but today almost everyone has a Smartphone, which is enough to experience the MR application features.

With Pokémon Go, the popular mr game, users have got the first-hand experience of the technology. This first mass player mobile-based game has arrived at a different era, where people have accepted the blend of physical and digital together.

Besides getting the presence in the gaming industries, mixed reality has also made a big leap in the realm of the retail sector, both brick-and-mortar and also online. Companies like Lowe provides mixed reality retail experiences such as holographic home remodeling that instantly demonstrates a variety of customizable design options that gets projected into the physical world.  Mixed reality promises to offer more and more personalized options to the customers than possible in static physical showrooms. Mixed reality is now present across all the industries starting from automotive to clothing.
