Abstract

Purpose Extended reality (XR) is an emerging technology, with its popularity rising in different industry sectors, where its application has been recently considered in construction safety. This study aims to investigate the applications of XR technologies in the safety of construction through projects lifecycle perspective. Design/methodology/approach Scientometric analysis was conducted to discover trends, keywords, contribution of countries and publication outlets in the literature. The content analysis was applied to categorize previous studies into three groups concerning the phase of lifecycle in which they used XR. Findings Results of the content analysis showed that the application of XR in the construction safety is mostly covered in two areas, namely, safety training and risk management. It was found that virtual reality was the most used XR tool with most of its application dedicated to safety training in the design phase. The amount of research on the application of augmented reality and mixed reality in safety training, and risk management in all phases of lifecycle is still insignificant. Finally, this study proposed three main areas for using the XR technologies regarding the safety issues in future research, namely, control of safety regulations and safety coordination in construction phase, and safety reports in the operation phase. Originality/value This paper inspected the utilization of all types of XR for safety in each phase of construction lifecycle and proposed future directions for research by addressing the safety challenges in each phase.
建筑安全中的扩展现实(XR)技术:系统回顾与分析
目的扩展现实(XR)是一项新兴技术,在不同的行业中越来越受欢迎,最近在建筑安全领域也考虑了它的应用。本研究旨在从项目生命周期的角度研究XR技术在建筑安全中的应用。设计/方法/方法进行了科学分析,以发现文献中的趋势、关键词、国家和出版渠道的贡献。内容分析将以往的研究分为三组,涉及其使用XR的生命周期阶段。内容分析结果表明,XR在建筑安全中的应用主要涉及两个领域,即安全培训和风险管理。研究发现,虚拟现实是最常用的XR工具,其大部分应用程序都致力于设计阶段的安全培训。关于增强现实和混合现实在安全培训和生命周期各个阶段的风险管理中的应用的研究数量仍然微不足道。最后,本研究针对未来研究中的安全问题,提出了使用XR技术的三个主要领域,即施工阶段的安全法规和安全协调控制,以及运营阶段的安全报告。独创性/价值本文考察了所有类型的XR在施工生命周期的每个阶段用于安全的情况,并通过解决每个阶段的安全挑战,提出了未来的研究方向。
