Mixed Reality (MR) is an advancing technology with the potential to revolutionize the realm of information and communication technology (ICT). By combining the strengths of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR), MR creates an immersive and interactive user experience. Its applications in ICT are extensive, encompassing education, training, entertainment, and healthcare. However, MR is a relatively new technology and faces numerous challenges that must be addressed before its full realization. Many technical aspects and requirements remain unclear. This paper aims to emphasize the applications of mixed reality in the ICT industry. It provides an overview of MR in education, explores opportunities, challenges, and future prospects. Additionally, the authors discuss the opportunities and challenges in MR development. MR technology is widely utilized in art and design, particularly in product design, display design, and interactive design. The paper concludes by summarizing the future trends of mixed reality technology, considering market and industry factors. While the application of mixed reality technology in the field of art design gains increasing attention from industry, it still lacks sufficient attention from the academic community
