There are four realities in Mixed Reality (MR) continuum. 1. Real Environment: This is the real world i.e. the physical world. 2. Augmented Reality: In this, Digital objects
Augmented Reality (AR) is a real time direct or indirect view of the physical real world that is enhanced or augmented with computer generated information. AR is both interactive and registered in 3D, combining real and virtual objects. AR enhances a user’s perception of the real world and the way they interact with it. The augmented Reality’s main purpose is simplifying the user’s life, by bringing virtual information to their immediate surroundings through an indirect view of the real-world environment
known as Augmented Realty (AR). AR is a technology that layers computer-generated enhancements over an existing reality; making it more meaningful through the ability to interact with it. (1) Interestingly, Both VR and AR can be combined to create a mixed reality through the use of HMD’s or three dimensional (3D) glasses. Two examples of such devices that make this technology possible are Microsoft’s HoloLens and the ZSpace 300. Microsoft’s HoloLens is a wireless augmented reality HMD that lets

The basic idea of the mixed economy is that it allows the people free will to make decisions except for when the government steps in creating an indirect influence over the economy. India functions in a mixed economy system. I believe that the happiest and most prosperous people live in a market economy. The people living in a centrally planned economy are probably

In these mixed economies, it is unlikely to have a completely even mix because of a inclination in one direction or the other.
