Abstract

There is widespread confusion over the terms augmented reality, mixed reality, and virtual reality, but there is a further term as well, augmented virtuality. A new term, Extended Reality, or XR, promises to do away with the confusion by gathering all of the terms under its umbrella label. But there is also the apparently new concept of the Metaverse, which has again confused, inspired, or irritated. Rather than attempt to cover all the major developments of this rapidly changing field, this chapter selects highlights that provide particular opportunities and issues of concern for the field of virtual heritage.

I have also seen it referred to as Cross Reality, but that, I believe, is not widespread.

OpenXR is similar to WebXR (originally WebVR, it was designed to run inside a browser), but they are run by different organizations.
