Abstract

Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), and Mixed Reality (MR) epitomize the technological frontier of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, bearing significant relevance to the construction sector. These immersive technologies, closely aligned with the burgeoning metaverse paradigm, have spawned a variety of applications within the construction industry, notably in the whole construction stage. However, their transition to on-field applications remains limited, especially in South Korea. This study aims to meticulously scrutinize the current landscape of VR, AR, and MR research in construction by delving into various overseas studies that employ these technologies across the construction lifecycle. Utilizing the RISS, Dbpia, KCI database, a systematic accumulation of bibliographic data from pertinent research papers will be conducted to discern the prevailing research trends and the practical implications of VR, AR, and MR in Korean AEC field. The analysis will encompass a review of the goals, methodologies, and outcomes of these studies, providing a scaffold for future research in this domain. The investigation will also shed light on the potential synergy between these immersive technologies and Building Information Modeling (BIM), which encapsulates the whole construction lifecycle, thereby illuminating pathways for enhanced digital model utilization in pre-construction processes. This endeavor not only seeks to bridge the existing research gap but strives to propel the Korean AEC field towards a digitally-augmented horizon by leveraging the capabilities of VR, AR, and MR.
