Course Summary

Extended Realities (XR) explores the expanding realm of immersive experience design, where virtual (VR), augmented (AR), and mixed realities (MR) intersect with physical and spatial environments.  

In this course, you will examine how digital design adapts to places, bodies, sensors, and interaction, moving beyond traditional screens into experiential spaces.  

You will be introduced to key XR concepts, design frameworks, and creative tools, enabling you to think spatially and experiment with immersive technologies.
