DEFINITION

The expression ‘mixed reality’ used in the context of this disclosure refers to, but is not limited to, a hybrid reality that merges real and virtual environments to produce a visualization, where physical and digital objects co-exist and interact in real time.

The expression ‘augmented reality’ used in the context of this disclosure refers to, but is not limited to, a live, direct or indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented by a computer-generated sensory input such as sound, video, or graphics data.

The expression ‘virtual reality (VR)’ used in the context of this disclosure refers to, but is not limited to, an immersive multimedia or computer-simulated reality that simulates a physical presence in a real world or an imagined world, allowing the participant to interact in that world.

These definitions are in addition to those expressed in the art.
BACKGROUND
Typically, video conferencing provides global interaction between multiple participants who are at different locations. There are many systems that provide video conferencing, such as TeleCon, WebEx, Skype, Google Talk, and the like. But, the video conferencing does not provide feel of the physical presence, i.e. face to face interaction, between the participants who are present at different locations and the participants who are physically present in a room. The physical presence of the participants makes more impact than being on a call or on a video.
Therefore, there is a need to provide a system that limits the aforementioned drawbacks by providing an immersive experience of bringing participants from the different locations to one room for an interactive assembly.
