According to Perplexity: Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) are technologies that blend digital content with the real world.
AR overlays digital information like images, text, or 3D models onto the real-world environment viewed through a device like a smartphone or AR glasses. It enhances the user’s perception of the real world by adding virtual elements to it.
VR creates a fully immersive digital environment that replaces the user’s real-world surroundings. Users are completely immersed in a computer-generated 3D simulation, typically experienced through a VR headset that blocks out the real world.
