Introduction to XR: VR, AR, and MR Foundations
FREE

If you understand the available technologies, how they are used, and what their future holds, you’ll be well equipped to deal with XR as it rapidly evolves and converges. In this course, we will present an introduction to XR using a broadly chronological approach, focusing on how all of the underlying technologies came together at key moments in the history of XR to launch the concepts of Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality into the mainstream consciousness. Throughout the course, we’ll give a brief description of each of the supporting technologies, some history about when it first came into use, limitations and future potential for improvement, and how it’s used for AR, VR, and MR.

Pretty basic information, but good course.

Mainly just a review of key industry terms and equipment. Glad there was a lab to create an app as simple as it was…

Excelente curso para aquellos entusiastas del XR.

Very useful, for someone with AR VR knowledge, it feels in the empty gaps. I recommend the course for all the AR/VR lovers, like me, to take it.

Good course to know about the basics of XR technologies and information about the new headsets
Ruida Z –
Horribly designed peer–reviewed assignment. Unsubscribed.
Obakeng M –
Peer review system makes grading and fair assessment uncertain. Lack of hands on development which may be found in the remaining courses

The course is significantly outdated. Very boring. Assignments have ambiguous formulations; you can wait for verification for several months. Many unscrupulous students. I do not advise you to enter the course or pay for it.

Course needs updating, also it’s boring material and many quizzes have questions not covered on the lectures or materials. Also looks like it’s been abandonned for a while, I di learn something but it can improve. Thanks I did get a buit of a in–depth understanding of XR.
