About the Course

This first course in the XR for Everybody specialization creates a foundational understanding of the differences between AR, VR, MR, and XR. The course provides learners with a broad overview of the rapidly evolving XR space and the tools to characterize future XR developments and assess their potential and limitations. It establishes key concepts and dives into the XR device landscape, helping learners to differentiate current and future platforms and devices as well as critique the use of VR or AR in applications. The course pivots in the second half to look more at how to shape the future of XR, by analyzing trends and raising issues such as COVID-19, social and ethical concerns, accessibility and equity, as well as privacy and security. The course comes with an honors track in which learners will try out and classify existing XR applications, pick technologies when designing solutions for various XR application scenarios, and dive into the issues contributing to the larger discussion around trends and the future of XR....

This course is an exceptionally thorough overview course for beginners with no XR experience at all. Highly recommend if you are interested in learning more about the technologies and issues in XR.

Good Course as it provides a complete overview of AR/VR/XR technologies for anyone curious to learn about this field. I believe however, the assessments were fairly simple and could have been slightly better.

The course pace is pretty slow. It repeats the same points over and over again. Discussions and lectures are very long. If you are a high school student and have no idea about technology, then it would provide a basis for you. If you are an engineering student, or a tech-savvy person, then you can move the lectures quickly by fast forwarding or checking the main points quickly.

I started the honour track, but then I stopped it as it was unnecessarily long. I did not see much value in honour track when I check the learning/time-spent factor.

But of course there are new things I learnt here too such as Reality–virtuality continuum and some other things.

Every lesson is like repeating one main idea. You can learn the whole material of this course by asking ChatGPT "What is AR|VR", etc.
