Study Notes
Mixed Reality (MR) Overview
- Mixed reality (MR) merges real and virtual worlds.
- Digital and physical objects coexist and interact in real-time.
- MR combines virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR).
Virtual Reality (VR)
- VR creates a completely digital environment.
- Users wear headsets to block out the real world.
- The user experiences a computer-generated, immersive world.
Augmented Reality (AR)
- AR enhances the real world with computer-generated 3D content.
- AR adds elements to the real world, but virtual elements don't change surroundings.
- Common AR examples: apps like Pokémon Go, and AR glasses.
Applications of MR
- Automotive Industry: Vehicle design and engineering reviews (reducing costly prototypes).
- Healthcare: Pain relief in burn injuries, non-invasive pain management.
- Tourism: Users can experience a holiday before buying it.
- Entertainment: Highlighting experiences and connecting emotionally with characters.
- Education: Immersive lessons, interaction with 3D models (e.g., imagining ancient Egypt).
Creating MR
- MR creation involves software and hardware components.
MR Hardware Components
- Headsets: HoloLens (Microsoft), Windows Mixed Reality Headsets, Apple Vision Pro.
- Sensors: Depth cameras, gyroscopes, and infrared cameras.
- Processing components: CPUs for computational tasks, GPUs for 3D graphics rendering.
- Input devices: Motion controllers, hand tracking.
MR Software Platforms
- Unity: Popular game engine for MR content creation.
- Unreal Engine: Powerful game engine for MR, supports high-quality graphics and various MR devices.
- Microsoft Mixed Reality Toolkit (MRTK): Collection of tools for building MR applications, works with Unity and Unreal Engine.
- Azure Mixed Reality Services: Cloud services supporting MR development.
