Interactive Technology

Interactive technology refers to digital tools and systems that enable users to engage in two-way communication or interaction with the technology itself. This encompasses a broad range of devices and applications that facilitate user interaction, such as touchscreens, virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), video games, interactive software applications, and social media platforms. The key characteristic of interactive technology is its ability to respond to user inputs, allowing for a dynamic exchange of information or experiences.

This technology can be used in various fields, including education, entertainment, marketing, and training, enhancing user engagement and participation. For example, in educational settings, interactive technology can make learning more engaging through interactive simulations or online quizzes. In entertainment, it often takes the form of video games or interactive films where the audience can influence the outcome.

Overall, interactive technology aims to create a more immersive and participatory experience for users, as opposed to traditional passive media consumption, fostering a greater sense of connection and involvement.
