showing the real world plus digital content then it’s augmented reality
But it isn’t. AR means direct optical contact with the real world augmented with a digital layer. What Apple’s VR does is recreate the real pov digitally using cameras, so it’s VR. Google Glass was an example of AR.

I can assure you, there exists no such consensus on the definition of any of the terms.
The most universal you’ll get for AR is the combination of primarily real-world with some digital aspects.

I’ve read extensively on the topic. Albeit a couple of years ago.

According to that page I’d consider this headset to be augmented virtuality. But yeah these are all gray areas
