“…Such communication methods are not limited but just verbal or written communication [ 54 ] but also include graphical and visual communication. Members can also communicate through gestures and body movement using VR tracking [ 14 ]. Additionally, they have the opportunity to choose the preferred communication method for them which motivates discussion and, hence the creativity behind concepts [ 7 ].…”

“…With regard to facilitation, further research is encouraged on how the appearance of the moderator can positively create proteus and social identification affects, particularly within the design engineering field. Regarding stimulation, further research is required to further enhance communication and comprehension between members such as the effects of eye contact, facial expressions, and gestures [ 14 , 56 , 77 ]. Such developments require further technological advancements in the fields of VR and AI aimed at supporting the user experience.…”

“…Another important element of ideation is communication through body language. The experiment by Ide et al [ 14 ] aimed to understand the impact of symbolic gestures to express pre-determined intentions and emotions and therefore, enhance communication amongst team members through avatars. A limitation of this study was the learning process involved for members to apply specific gestures; however further research is expected.…”

Creativity plays a significant role in competitive product ideation. With the increasing emergence of Virtual Reality (VR) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies, the link between such technologies and product ideation is explored in this research to assist and augment creative scenarios in the engineering field. A bibliographic analysis is performed to review relevant fields and their relationships. This is followed by a review of current challenges in group ideation and state-of-the-art technologies with the aim of addressing them in this study. This knowledge is applied to the transformation of current ideation scenarios into a virtual environment using AI. The aim is to augment designers’ creative experiences, a core value of Industry 5.0 that focuses on human-centricity, social and ecological benefits. For the first time, this research reclaims brainstorming as a challenging and inspiring activity where participants are fully engaged through a combination of AI and VR technologies. This activity is enhanced through three key areas: facilitation, stimulation, and immersion. These areas are integrated through intelligent team moderation, enhanced communication techniques, and access to multi-sensory stimuli during the collaborative creative process, therefore providing a platform for future research into Industry 5.0 and smart product development.

“…For example, to participate in a task anonymously in a virtual environment, which supports an equal social environment. Participants can freely express their ideas and provide feedback, which encourages them more voluntarily to share their ideas, and more free communication and avoids several negative external motivations such as a strict hierarchy, thus improving creativity [60,98,121]. Other extrinsic motivators, such as collaborative exploration, co-modification, and mutual co-exploration, encouraged individuals to generate original solutions and inspired them to discover unexpected new solutions [94].…”

The metaverse, enormous virtual-physical cyberspace, has brought unprecedented opportunities for artists to blend every corner of our physical surroundings with digital creativity. This article conducts a comprehensive survey on computational arts, in which seven critical topics are relevant to the metaverse, describing novel artworks in blended virtual-physical realities. The topics first cover the building elements for the metaverse, e.g., virtual scenes and characters, auditory, textual elements. Next, several remarkable types of novel creations in the expanded horizons of metaverse cyberspace have been reflected, such as immersive arts, robotic arts, and other user-centric approaches fuelling contemporary creative outputs. Finally, we propose several research agendas: democratising computational arts, digital privacy and safety for metaverse artists, ownership recognition for digital artworks, technological challenges, and so on. The survey also serves as introductory material for artists and metaverse technologists to begin creations in the realm of surrealistic cyberspace.CCS Concepts: • Human-centered computing → Mixed / augmented reality; Graphical user interfaces; • Computing methodologies → Machine learning approaches.
