===Mixed reality (MR)===
{{main|Mixed reality}}
Mixed reality (MR) blends elements of both augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR). It enables real-time interaction with both physical and digital objects. HCI research in MR concentrates on spatial computing, real-world object interaction, and context-aware adaptive interfaces.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Milgram |first1=Paul |last2=Takemura |first2=Haruo |last3=Utsumi |first3=Akira |last4=Kishino |first4=Fumio |date=1995 |title=Augmented reality: a class of displays on the reality-virtuality continuum |url=https://www.researchgate.net/publication/228537162 |journal=Telemanipulator and Telepresence Technologies |volume=2351 |page=282 |doi=10.1117/12.197321|bibcode=1995SPIE.2351..282M }}</ref> MR technologies are increasingly applied in education, training simulations, and healthcare, enhancing learning outcomes and user engagement.<ref name=speiginer2015>{{cite journal|last1=Speiginer|first1=Grant|title=Mixed reality in education: A review of current and future trends|journal=Educational Technology Research & Development|year=2015|volume=63|issue=6|pages=855–873|doi=10.1007/s11423-015-9381-7|doi-broken-date=
===Extended reality (XR)===
{{main|Extended reality}}
Extended reality (XR) is an umbrella term encompassing AR, VR, and MR, offering a continuum between real and virtual environments. Research investigates user adaptability, interaction paradigms, and ethical implications of immersive technologies.<ref name=milgram1994>{{cite journal|last1=Milgram|first1=Paul|title=A Taxonomy of Mixed Reality Visual Displays|journal=IEICE Transactions on Information and Systems|year=1994|volume=77|issue=12|pages=1321–1329}}</ref> Recent studies highlight how AI-driven personalization and adaptive interfaces improve the usability of XR applications.<ref name=buhalis2022>{{cite journal|last1=Buhalis|first1=Dimitrios|last2=Karatay|first2=Natali|title=Extended reality (XR) and artificial intelligence (AI) revolutionizing the hospitality industry|journal=Journal of Hospitality & Tourism Research|year=2022|volume=46|issue=3|pages=489–508|doi=10.1177/10963480211037322|doi-broken-date=

* their interface designers lacked understanding of related security concepts
* their interface designers were not usability experts (often meaning they were the application developers themselves)
===Feminist HCI===
{{main|Feminist HCI}}
Feminist HCI is a subfield of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) that examines the interaction between people and technology through the lens of [[Feminist theory|feminist]] and [[Critical theory|critical theories]]. This particular research topic consists of many sub-disciplines that examine the role of power, [[Social privilege|privilege]], and other systems of [[oppression]] in the [[design]] and interaction of technology.
