The International Conference on eXtended Reality (XR Salento) is an event dedicated to eXtended Reality (XR), an umbrella term that includes Augmented Reality (AR), Virtual Reality (VR), and Mixed Reality (MR). XR describes all immersive technologies that merge the physical and virtual worlds, transforming the way we interact with the world around us.
XR Salento is the evolution of previous editions of the International Conference on Augmented Reality, Virtual Reality, and Computer Graphics (Salento AVR), which has brought together the AR/VR community since 2014.
XR Salento offers a unique opportunity for discussion and collaboration among scientists, engineers, educators, and students, allowing them to connect with entrepreneurs and companies in the XR sector. It also provides a platform to explore and experience applications of these emerging technologies.
XR Salento 2025 is organized by the Augmented and Virtual Reality Laboratory and supported by the University of Salento.

OTRANTO (LECCE), ITALY
Otranto is a town that offers something for everyone, from history enthusiasts and nature lovers to those simply seeking relaxation by the sea. With its mixture of historical sites, stunning landscapes, and vibrant local culture, Otranto provides a rich and fulfilling travel experience that captures the essence of Puglia’s unique charm.
Otranto sits right on the Adriatic sea, gazing out across its eponymous strait towards the Balkans and Greece, a strategic position that has profoundly influenced its history. The imposing castle, thick perimeter walls and robust towers dominate much of the town, giving way to a small port, a series of sea-front promenades with excellent fish restaurants and the town's very own beautiful white sandy beach and turquoise waters.
