A meta-analysis of the presently available, empirical findings on transfer of training from virtual (VR), augmented (AR), and mixed reality (MR) and extended reality (XR)-based training found that extended realities are as effective of a training mechanism as the commonly accepted methods.

The value of XR then lies in providing training in circumstances, which exclude traditional methods, such as situations when danger or cost may make traditional training impossible.
