DefinitionMR glasses (MRグラス) are head-mounted devices that deliver MR (mixed reality) (複合現実): they read the real space, then place virtual objects so they appear to interact with real things.
ExplanationBecause the device's sensors capture the shape and position of floors, desks and so on, a virtual object can sit on a desk or hide behind a real object. You can also grab and move virtual objects with hand gestures. Besides eyeglass types, there are headset products that fit over the whole head.
AnalogyIt feels like a 3D model on a real desk that seems to stop when you slide it to the desk's edge.
Memory hookMixed means blended: MR blends the real and the virtual in one space.
