"Virtual and augmented reality have become a trend more recently due to advances in artificial intelligence. They’ve grown to be more commonly utilized tools for interpretation of ideas in a variety of fields. VR is an immersive technology experience. Though it was commonly used in the gaming industry, it’s now being applied to a variety of fields. For example, companies can make use of simulated interviews and best choose candidates for the job when recruiting and training. AR on the other hand, supplements and enhances reality that already exists. Social media filters are a good example of this. Another example, the furniture company IKEA recently used this immersive technology to help shoppers envision how furniture would look inside their home."

VR and AR more and more are being applied to a variety of fields. More notably associated with gaming, VR and AR are proving useful in less glorified areas like job interviews and job training. In addition, it is enhancing the shopping experience, saving time and money. Lastly, in the area of art, it is being used to spice up exhibits giving patrons an alternative way of appreciating artwork. All in all, VR and AR are revolutionizing our world, pushing the boundaries of creativity and enhancing how people perceive it.
