1. What are the key differences between AR, VR, and MR?
AR (Augmented Reality) overlays digital content onto the real world (e.g., Pokémon GO). VR (Virtual Reality) immerses users in a fully digital environment (e.g., Oculus Rift). MR (Mixed Reality) blends real and virtual worlds, allowing interaction with both (e.g., Microsoft HoloLens).

2. Explain the role of Unity in XR development.
Unity is a leading game engine used to create cross-platform XR applications. It provides tools for 3D rendering, physics, and scripting, simplifying the development of immersive experiences for AR, VR, and MR.

3. How does ARKit or ARCore enhance AR experiences on mobile devices?
ARKit (iOS) and ARCore (Android) enable advanced AR features like motion tracking, environmental understanding, and light estimation, allowing developers to create realistic and interactive AR apps for smartphones.

4. What hardware components are essential for a VR setup?
Key components include a VR headset (e.g., Oculus Quest), motion controllers, sensors for tracking, and a powerful computer or standalone device to run high-fidelity VR applications.

5. Describe a use case for MR in healthcare or education.
In healthcare, MR can assist surgeons with real-time 3D visualizations during procedures. In education, it enables interactive learning, such as virtual dissections or historical recreations.

6. How do you ensure user privacy and data security in XR applications?
Implement data encryption, anonymize user data, obtain explicit consent for data collection, and comply with regulations like GDPR to protect user privacy in XR apps.

7. What are the challenges of creating immersive VR environments?
Challenges include motion sickness due to latency, high hardware costs, achieving realistic interactions, and designing user interfaces that feel natural in a 3D space.

8. How can XR be used for training and simulation in industries?
XR enables risk-free training simulations, such as flight training for pilots, equipment operation for engineers, or emergency response drills for healthcare workers.

9. What ethical considerations should developers keep in mind when designing XR experiences?
Developers must address addiction risks, avoid manipulative design (e.g., excessive data collection), ensure accessibility, and consider the psychological impact of immersive environments.
