2.

The merging of real and virtual worlds to produce new environments and visualizations, where physical and digital objects co-exist and interact in real time. Learn more in: This History and Evolution of Virtual Reality

3.

Mixed Reality is the overarching term for a variety of technologies on a continuous spectrum between the two poles of reality and virtuality. Well-known variants of MR technology are virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR). Compared to other media, MR has some distinctive characteristics such as immersion and spatiality.
