Overview

Advancing Extended Reality Experiences

Extended reality (XR) gives us a new view of the world, creating a more immersive and interactive experience where users can do almost anything—interact with friends and family, learn, work, shop, create, game, and enjoy entirely new experiences. XR encompasses augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR). While all three ‘realities’ share features, each has different purposes.

 

The Arm compute platform delivers a high-performant, efficient and secure solution with AI capabilities to meet the needs of XR wearable devices and experiences, both now and in the future.

Augmented Reality

AR enhances our view of the real world by overlaying what we see with computer-generated information. This technology is prevalent in smartphones and smart glasses.

Virtual Reality

VR completely replaces a user’s view, immersing them within a computer-generated virtual environment. This technology is primarily for social and entertainment experiences, such as gaming, concerts, films, and sports.

Mixed Reality

MR merges the real and virtual worlds where virtual objects are superimposed into real-world environments. This technology is mostly found in smartphones, wearable devices, video games, and on streaming platforms.
