Past Achievements and Future Opportunities in Combining Conceptual Modeling with VR/AR: A Systematic Derivation.

Despite the increased interest in virtual and augmented reality in recent years, they are not yet mainstream technologies for everyday use in industry. We argue that a promising approach to facilitate the application of virtual and augmented reality is to combine it with conceptual modeling. In this paper, we thus conducted a systematic literature review on the combination of conceptual modeling with virtual and augmented reality within the last two decades. For this purpose, we reverted to a manual literature search, computational topic modeling, and an expert-driven classification process. This analysis highlights the areas in which such a combination of virtual and augmented reality and conceptual modeling already exists, as well as the aspects that are not yet covered or that would offer opportunities for further research.
