augmented realities
Digitally layered worlds
Augmented realities is the plural of augmented reality, technology that overlays digital information—images, sounds, text—onto the physical world in real time.
Unlike virtual reality, which replaces surroundings entirely, augmented reality enhances what's already there: The app showed augmented realities of how furniture would look in my living room.
The plural typically refers to multiple implementations or experiences of the technology.
