what is the difference between virtual reality and augmented reality?
Augmented/mixed reality. Virtual reality and 360 video both have a common factor: Like a good movie, both of them totally transport you to someplace else, be it computer generated or a real-life remote location. Augmented reality, on the other hand, blends your real-world environment with virtual objects that are perfectly inserted into your field of view. The best example of this right now is Microsoft's HoloLens system.
