THE EXTENT TO WHICH VIRTUAL-REALITY SIMULATORS AND AUGMENTED REALITY SIMULATORS INFLUENCE INTERACTION WITH THE REAL WORLD

Due to the advent of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) simulators, the way in which society interacts with their surroundings and other people has transformed dramatically. VR and AR have been changing how people interact with the physical world, including the extent to which they need to interact with it in order to achieve a certain objective. The extent of AR and VR influences on human interactions with the real world are expansive, in both exciting and harmful ways. It is important to balance human involvement with AR and VR and not become distracted by a plethora of altered-reality opportunities, so that society at large can enjoy AR and VR with an optimum influence on interactions.
