How XR Works
Extended reality, a cornerstone of spatial computing, works by blending the physical and digital worlds using immersive technologies like augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR). AR overlays digital content onto the real world, VR fully immerses users into a virtual environment, and MR seamlessly combines real and virtual elements, enabling interaction between the two. These experiences are powered by advanced hardware like NVIDIA GPUs, optimized drivers, and versatile SDKs, which process complex data in real time to deliver lifelike visuals, synchronized interactions, and responsive environments.
