Glossary
Augmented Reality (AR)Technology that superimposes digital elements – images, text, or 3D models – onto the real world, enhancing the user’s visual and interactive experience. Used for training, remote assistance, marketing, and industrial design.
Virtual Reality (VR)A fully digital and immersive environment that simulates real or imagined situations. Using headsets and motion sensors, it delivers high-impact simulation, training, and entertainment experiences.
Mixed Reality (MR)A combination of virtual and augmented reality that integrates physical and digital objects within the same space, enabling simultaneous and realistic interactions between the real and virtual worlds.
Artificial Intelligence (AI)A collection of technologies that enable systems to learn from data and improve over time. It supports process automation, visual and voice recognition, predictive analytics, and the personalisation of user experiences.
Machine Learning (ML)A branch of artificial intelligence that uses algorithms to autonomously learn from data. It underpins applications such as automated recommendations, predictive analytics, and behavioural modelling.
Internet of Things (IoT)A network of connected devices that communicate with each other and with cloud platforms, collecting and exchanging data. Essential for industrial automation and the development of integrated digital ecosystems.
Immersive SimulationTechnology that combines virtual reality, sensors, and digital models to realistically recreate complex scenarios. It is widely used for training, safety, and design.
