Abstract

This comprehensive literature review explores the diverse landscape of immersive realities, offering a thorough examination of key technologies from Virtual Reality (VR) to the emerging and innovative concept of the Metaverse. The article concentrates the nuances of Extended Reality (XR), Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR), providing an in-depth understanding of their individual functionalities, applications, and evolving interplay. The paper also mentions about wearable technologies which play key role in the realization of these immersive realities. The article begins by explaining the fundamental principles of each immersive reality, tracing their technological evolution and highlighting distinctive features that define their user experiences. It then navigates through the complex intersections and synergies between these immersive technologies, shedding light on how they collectively contribute to shaping the future of digital interaction. The paper unfolds how the journey of immersive realities lead to the Metaverse which is relatively a novel paradigm that transcends individual immersive realities, creating a unified, interconnected digital space. The exploration of the Metaverse encompasses its conceptual foundations, potential social impacts, and the fusion of various immersive technologies within this evolving ecosystem. With an inclusive approach, this paper caters to both novices and seasoned professionals in the field, offering insights into the practical applications associated with different immersive realities. By fostering a comprehensive understanding of these technologies, the paper aims to empower readers to navigate and contribute to the dynamic landscape of immersive realities.
