Exploring VR and AR Technologies

What is the primary purpose of Virtual Reality (VR)?

• To enhance traditional video games with 2D graphics.

• To replace physical reality with augmented reality.

• To provide basic computer training for users.

• To create immersive experiences that simulate real or imagined environments.

How does Augmented Reality (AR) differ from Virtual Reality (VR)?

• AR and VR are the same technology used for gaming purposes.

• AR enhances the real world with digital elements, while VR creates a fully immersive digital environment.

• VR enhances the real world with digital overlays and information.

• AR creates a completely virtual world without any real elements.
