“…In an entirely new form of a virtual or hybrid synthetic human experience such as in spatial computing, the paradigm shifts content generation and consumption from representational to localized and often embodied, producing an effect of body awareness and self-presence within the content and the information that it carries. VR refers to digital, computer-generated three-dimensional environments that are completely separated from physical reality [28]. The cutting edge of immersive VR technology uses head-mounted displays to create the sense of occlusion and separate the human senses from the physical environment that takes full control of them.…”

“…Therefore, the research strategy to comprehend the existing research landscape differentiates the term XR into VR, AR, and MR. These terms have already been analyzed in different research projects through taxonomies from a general perspective [47,48], for educational use cases [49], and from a technological perspective [50]. Secondly, the understanding of the term value creation within the context of XR technologies must be shaped.…”

With increasing computing power and data transmission performance of information technologies, the application scenarios for Extended Reality (XR) technologies in industries are growing. Despite the ongoing scientific investigation of industrial XR applications for over 25 years, these technologies are still considered emerging. Within this paper, we present an industry- and business-process agnostic approach for classifying the deployment purposes of XR technologies in value creation. We identified two major research streams regarding the role of XR technologies in value creation: (1) the research initiatives focusing on business-process-specific use case analysis and (2) industry-oriented research reviews. This results in limited identification of suitable application scenarios for new use cases and restricted transferability of the existing use case to future deployments. First, we provide a qualitative analysis of the current research streams. Then, in the second step, by abstracting the XR technology from the existing business processes and the industry-specific context, the generic purposes for XR technologies in value creation are identified and defined. The summary of these deployment purposes results in a taxonomy that enables the identification and transfer of potential use cases of XR technologies in value creation.

“…It can describe extended reality, mixed reality (similar to MR), cross reality, or serve as generic term with 'X' being a placeholder for M(R), A(R), or V(R). [9][10][11] In this paper, we use it in the latter meaning.…”

Conventional flight simulators usually include a complex and expensive outside vision projection system. Especially scenarios where the helicopter pilots look far to the side or through the windows near the pedals require a large projection dome to provide an image of the outside world. Additionally, simulators used for research need to be highly customizable: For rapid prototyping of new flight deck designs, the cockpit mockup must be adaptable enough to change the appearance and arrangement of its elements. The recent technological advancements of head-mounted displays (HMDs) offer many new ways to create a simulator that fulfills the stated requirements at moderate cost. A non-see-through HMD can immerse the pilots into a computer-generated cockpit with "unrestricted" virtual out-the-window view. The downwards view is even better than with dome projections. Such a fully virtual approach, however, requires complex finger-tracking and haptic feedback solutions to enable the user to interact with the cockpit. By contrast, a video-see-through HMD allows us to selectively combine a highly customizable virtual world with a video-stream of the real surroundings. One can, for instance, show the pilot's hands and relevant parts of the physical flight deck mockup, enriched with virtual elements and virtual out-the-window view. In such a mixed setup, the pilots can naturally and directly interact with conventional input devices in an otherwise virtual environment. The paper presents our implementation of a mixed reality simulator with the Varjo XR-3 video-see-through HMD. We assess different variants, discuss implementation details like real-to-virtual-world-alignment, and explain the major challenges of such setups.
