        abstract = {In this research paper, we will discuss how AR and VR revolutionize the landscape of HCI. Digitized experiences have moved far beyond the traditional 2D interfaces: new immersive ways of interacting with virtual content have emerged in the form of AR and VR. This paper, therefore, extends the review of existing literature, user studies, and system prototypes in order to examine the significant influence of AR and VR technologies on HCI. We evaluate how the usability, effectiveness, and challenges of these AR/VR systems differ from traditional interfaces by combining qualitative insights from the interviews of the users with the use of quantitative performance metrics. The findings reveal that even though AR/VR greatly improves the interaction of a user, usability issues, hardware, and user adaptation still present some of the major challenges. Conclusion In this paper, we discussed how high-tech technology has been applied in both virtual reality experiences as well as exhibiting potential areas in future research and development in technologies for augmented realities.},
