Vision for Next-Gen XR Future XR technologies must transcend current limitations to offer deeply realistic and impactful experiences tailored to understand users’ unique contexts, preferences, and interactions. Such advancements are vital for broadening XR’s application in areas with significant social and economic benefits, like personalized education, daily support, rehabilitation, immersive training, and tele-presence solutions. Achieving this requires XR systems that not only meet but exceed our expectations, presenting responses and interactions that align seamlessly with human perception. Historically, R&D in XR has focused on spatial user and environment tracking, resulting in static, non-adaptive visual representations. Despite recent strides in AI, including IoT for real-time interaction tracking, machine learning for behavior prediction, and NLP for voice commands, these technologies have been integrated into XR systems as isolated components. The challenge ahead lies in synthesizing these advances into cohesive, intelligent systems that genuinely understand and adapt to individual user needs, setting the stage for a revolution in how we interact with digital environments.
