Impact and Experience of Immersive Technology in Industries and Enterprises

The goal of this research is to look into how immersive technologies have changed many aspects of industry and corporate work over time, often in many unexpected ways, as well as many seemingly confusing ways, before becoming routine. The term “immersive” refers to technology that surrounds an individual with digital information to create the illusion that it is “real,” including virtual reality (VR) [1], augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MR), and other emerging forms of digital information. More than a few organizations currently believe that this type of technology could allow for more efficient or effective performance of tasks; however, many organizations remain hesitant due to fear of high costs, and/or lack of understanding of what the technology can accomplish. This research project was conducted as a result of rapid changes occurring throughout the world, with the belief that if businesses do not begin to utilize new technologies, they may fall behind many of their competitors [2].
