增强现实（AR）、虚拟现实（VR）、混合现实和延展实境（经常误导性地缩写为XR）是描述技术如何生成或修改现实的常用术语。然而，学术界和专业人士在使用这些术语时一直不一致。这导致了概念上的混乱和界限不清。受先前研究和XR专业人士的定性见解的启发，我们讨论了各种术语的含义和定义，并将其组织在我们提出的框架中。因此，我们得出结论：（1）XR不应用于暗示延展实境，而是作为一种更开放的方法，其中X意味着未知变量：xReality;（2）AR和VR具有根本差异，因此应被视为不同的体验;（3）AR体验可以在从辅助现实到混合现实的连续体上描述（基于本地存在的水平）;以及（4），VR体验可以在从原子VR到整体VR的远程呈现连续体上进行概念化。
Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), Mixed Reality, and Extended Reality (often - misleadingly - abbreviated as XR) are commonly used terms to describe how technologies generate or modify reality. However, academics and professionals have been inconsistent in their use of these terms. This has led to conceptual confusion and unclear demarcations. Inspired by prior research and qualitative insights from XR professionals, we discuss the meaning and definitions of various terms and organize them in our proposed framework. As a result, we conclude that (1) XR should not be used to connote extended reality, but as a more open approach where the X implies the unknown variable: xReality; (2) AR and VR have fundamental differences and thus should be treated as different experiences; (3) AR experiences can be described on a continuum ranging from assisted reality to mixed reality (based on the level of local presence); and (4), VR experiences can be conceptualized on a telepresence-continuum ranging from atomistic to holistic VR.
