“…Other research explores potential VR software improvements and the extent to which they could support the way work is contacted in geographically distributed teams in the area of product development. Given the benefits of virtual worlds for team collaboration, employees may consider enhancing their skill sets to smoothly adapt to creating 3D objects in the virtual environment (Balzerkiewitz & Stechert, 2020 ). Herbet ( 2014 ) reflects on interactions in a collaborative virtual environment where users are co-located in the same physical space such that they also have a physical presence during their virtual interaction.…”

Metaverses refer to immersive virtual worlds in which people, places, and things of the physical world are represented by their digital representations. The wide adoption of metaverses is expected to widely disrupt the way we interact in the virtual world by elevating our online interactive experiences and bringing a plethora of implications for businesses. Following a structured literature review of related research published in the last decade, we shed light on our current understanding of metaverses and reflect on the potentially transformative value of metaverses for businesses in the near future. We draw on an established research framework to organize the insights of existing literature across different levels of analysis and activities’ purpose. Through this analysis, we reveal eight propositions on the changes brought by the use of metaverses and identify a number of open questions which could serve as future research avenues.

New approach of designing robotics production systems using immersive virtual reality environment

2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Production requirements are growing and companies needs to adapt to the latest trends with state-of-art technologies. Virtual reality (VR) technology promises big changes in Industry sector, even this technology is still evolving. This immersive technology allows to visualization and interaction of complex engineering data in virtual environment, provide various inspection of 3D objects and allows to communicate changes on objects or process between production teams and customers. This paper discus about potential of VR systems in Industry and purpose of usage to improve development process and the use of this technology in the design of future robotic systems. The goal is to compare causal designing methods of robotic work station and method with using VR environment and their possibilities. Development supported by VR systems shortens preproduction phase and brings to user immersive experience with designing product or process without creating physical prototype or real production systems.

“… Participants are the users who interact with the virtual environment and thus manipulate it. A detailed overview of the VR technology can be found in the already published papers of the authors (Balzerkiewitz and Stechert, 2020a;Balzerkiewitz and Stechert, 2020b). Until 2016, VR was mainly use in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction industry (AEC) With the launch of modern Head Mounted Displays (HMD) like the HTC Vive or the Occulus Rift, VR applications increasingly found their way into technical product development.…”
