Definition
Mixed Reality is the merging of real world and virtual worlds to produce a new environment where physical and digital objects can co-exist and interact. A mix of augmented reality and virtual reality. (Wikipedia).
Types of systems
Benford identifies 3 major lines of research
- (Some kinds of) Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVEs)
- (Some kinds of) Telepresence systems
- Collaborative Augmented Environments
See shared spaces for Benford's typology of shared spaces.
