There isn’t always a single right solution for an immersive enterprise application. Selecting the right combination of technologies and tools depends on your business goals, user needs and understanding the different options available.
VR places the user in a simulated, immersive environment. VR systems typically consist of a head-mounted display (HMD), which completely replaces the user’s reality with a virtual one. Advanced VR systems can utilize sound, motion tracking and haptic feedback to immerse all of the user’s senses.
AR presents additional digital data over the user’s real world. Digital visual and audio is layered over the user’s real surroundings. Popular mobile AR applications use smart phone cameras and displays to gather data on real world objects. The future of AR promises integration into everyday wearables like eyeglasses, to minimize the intrusion of technology without compromising comfort or functionality.
MR is a hybrid of VR and AR. Interactive, simulated objects and experiences are composited into the user’s real-world surroundings, in real-time. MR also relies on HMDs to create virtual elements that seamlessly interact with the user’s true surroundings.
Using Microsoft’s HoloLens mixed reality headset, Vectorform and Microsoft enabled Ford Motor Company’s designers and engineers to view 3D holographic versions of exterior body options (e.g. side mirrors, grilles) overlaid on top of the physical vehicle prototypes.
