Extended Reality (XR) encompasses a broad category of cutting-edge technologies, including [Virtual Reality (VR)](https://www.o2oh.com/glossary/vr-virtual-reality), [Augmented Reality (AR)](https://www.o2oh.com/glossary/ar-augmented-reality), and [Mixed Reality (MR)](https://www.o2oh.com/glossary/mr-mixed-reality), that merge the actual and digital environments to generate innovative experiences.

XR represents a continuum in which the physical and digital worlds merge to varying degrees. It is driven by advanced computing, sensor technology, and [AI](https://www.o2oh.com/glossary/artificial-intelligence), which enable real-time tracking and spatial awareness.

The concept simplifies communication about the spectrum of immersive experiences and the evolving hardware and software that enable them. XR is rapidly becoming a foundational tool across industries for advanced simulation, remote collaboration, and highly engaging training.
