    (University of Žilina, 2024) Dulina, Ľuboslav; Zuzik, Ján; Biňasová, Vladimíra; Furmannová, Beáta; Matys, Marián
    Extended Reality (XR) technologies, encompassing Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR), are rapidly transforming various industries, offering innovative solutions for training, design, and collaboration. However, the integration of XR into work environments introduces new ergonomic challenges that must be addressed to ensure user safety, comfort, and performance. This article explores the role of ergonomics in XR, emphasizing the importance of physical, cognitive, and organizational ergonomics. It highlights the need for well-designed XR devices to minimize physical strain, the optimization of cognitive load to avoid mental fatigue, and the adaptation of organizational workflows to enhance collaboration in virtual spaces. Additionally, the article discusses the emerging issue of simulator sickness and its impact on XR applications. By increasing awareness of these ergonomic considerations, this work aims to contribute to the development of safer and more effective XR environments, ultimately enhancing user experience and productivity.
