Extended reality includes virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR). Discover how digital experiences can change what we see, create, and learn.

Two ways to expand your world.

IMMERSIVE DIGITAL WORLDS

Virtual reality (VR)

Explore a simulated digital environment. Imagine investigating a virtual habitat or testing an idea in a simulation.

HOW THE IDEAS CONNECT

Explore the connections.

AI can help make digital experiences responsive. Robotics brings code into physical action. Cybersecurity helps protect data, devices, and the people using them.

AR and VR are experiences in their own right; AI can enhance them but is not required.
