The metaverse isn’t just AR or VR, it’s both of them and more. It includes virtual reality, augmented reality, the internet and several other technologies. Microsoft is already using holograms and is working on developing mixed reality and extended reality (XR) on the Microsoft Mesh platform. It even intends to bring mixed reality in the form of holograms and virtual avatars to Microsoft Teams in 2022.The biggest difference between AR & VR and the metaverse is that AR and VR have very clear definitions while the metaverse is a very vague concept that has not been clearly defined as yet.
