The 21st century witnesses innovative concepts in the field of technology and multimedia integrated with networking. The new
concept is referred to as Virtual Reality, which is a combination of multimedia and networking. Virtual Reality is wholly different
from other advanced technologies that are visually appealing. The main features of virtual reality are identified as spatial
conception, perception comprehensiveness, and information interaction. Apart from the above, other specialties of virtual reality
are the generation of 3D images and presenting information in a unique way. These features are generally applied across different
fields, such as environmental design, architecture, public art design, and other industries. Virtual Reality processes the precise data
calculation and then optimises the display experience of the users/customer. It also fulfills customers’ needs and enhances user
satisfaction by exchanging valuable information. The entire gaming industry applies Virtual Reality, and thus, the world looks
more mature. Even the tourism industry has started using Virtual Reality which has the potential to bring novel experiences and
vitality to the audience. Therefore, it can be confirmed that the application of Virtual Reality will undergo continuous development
and advancement, adjusting to the needs of the industries. The primary aim of this study is to gain an in-depth understanding of
the Virtual Reality concept and the application of Virtual Reality in art design and to examine the impact of Virtual Reality on
public art design. This article also reviews the features of Virtual Reality and its application in art designs. The advantages of
Virtual Reality will also be discussed broadly. At last, this study proposes a feasibility model of Virtual Reality that can be applied
in public art design.

Virtual Reality is an advanced computer technology that
permits users to interact with one another in an artificially
created real world. This technology absorbs special inputs
and outputs from various devices and provides a great
experience with regard to the artificially created environ-
ment, where the users feel that they live in the real world.
This system allows users to search, find, and interact in a
three-dimensional virtual world, predominantly created by
the software designer. VR technology enables users to
perform all kinds of activities that are very similar to things
that can be performed in the real world. For instance, the
users can play cricket, badminton, tennis, and so on by
sticking to the rules of those games in real life [1]. The users
will be able to fly through space, throw a cricket ball, catch a
created world. The most interesting part about the VR
application is that all the abovementioned activities can be
made possible with just one nod or gesture.
Virtual Reality processes the precise data calculation and
then optimizes the display experience for the users or
customers. It also fulfills the needs of customers and en-
hances customer or user satisfaction by exchanging valuable
information [2]. The entire gaming industry applies Virtual
Reality, and thus, the world looks more mature. Even the
tourism industry has started applying Virtual Reality which
has the potential to bring novel experiences and vitality to
the audience. Therefore, it can be confirmed that the ap-
plication of Virtual Reality will undergo continuous de-
velopment and advancement, adjusting to the needs of the
industries.
2 Mobile Information Systems
Generally speaking, Virtual Reality is an advanced
computer technology that simulates reality in a computer-
based environment that is interactive and engaging. This
advanced application enables users to enter a fascinating and
magical world, which is ideal for the real world outside. In
order to develop a virtual reality system, the designer should
have a fair understanding of computer graphics and spatial
relationships. Indeed, these designers should have the right
knowledge of subjects such as physics, mathematics, human
psychology, and even arts. Various topics such as speed,
gravity, resistance, and so on should be taken into con-
sideration during the development stages of the VR appli-
cation. Only then, the designers will be successful in creating
the so-called virtual or artificial environments. With in-
creasing support of computer software, hardware, and in-
tegration of the virtual world, VR technology is growing as
each day passes [3]. They aim to move towards perfection,
which will ultimately showcase the real world in a more
realistic, flexible, and dynamic way. Such advanced tech-
nologies come with the capability of reacting to users’
language, facial expressions, form, and so on immediately
after they establish real-time communication between the
real world and the virtual/artificial world. For these reasons,
VR applications attract the attention of corporations,
companies, academicians, and so on.
Computer modelling and other simulations are applied
in the process of developing Virtual Reality. As we already
know, VR applications primarily allow user interaction
within a 3D multimedia environment. With the aid of ar-
tificial interactive devices, VR applications encode and de-
code messages to the users. Some of the interactive devices
come in the form of headsets, body suits, goggles, gloves, and
so forth. In short, VR applications simulate the presence of
the real world into an artificial environment to make it look
more realistic. Hence, it can be concluded that virtual reality
application has been successful in creating a realistic-looking
world by using computer graphics and simulation activities
[4]. Therefore, the primary aim of this study is to gain an in-
depth understanding of the Virtual Reality concept and the
application of Virtual Reality in art design and to examine
the impact of Virtual Reality on public art design. This study
also reviews the features of Virtual Reality and its application
in art designs. The advantages of Virtual Reality will also be
discussed broadly. At last, this study proposes a feasibility
model of Virtual Reality that can be applied in public art
design. This study follows the layout given below. Section 2
presents an examination of the available literature. Section 3
discusses the methodology adopted in the study and the
ways to gather data. Section 4 presents the prominent
findings derived from the study, followed by a discussion.
Section 5 presents the conclusion of the study.
2. Review of the Literature
Seminal contributions have been made by past researchers
on the advancements of Virtual Reality applications and its
wide use across the industries. With the aim of breaking the
existing limitations in the field of art design, designers are
striving hard to improve the usage of VR technology in art
design [5]. The improvements to the technology were
identified as having enhanced display features to meet the
needs of the users, implementing innovative ideas of art
design to attract the users/customers, and lastly, adding the
element of charm in the designs. A few other studies found
that the application of Virtual Reality technology is devel-
oped with the aid of the latest technology algorithms such as
simulations, embracing multimedia and network technology
[6, 7]. These technologies create an entirely new experience
and, thus, provide real-time interaction with the world.
Virtual Reality technology is recognised as a three-dimen-
sional aspect, which requires computer graphics and sim-
ulation technologies to create a unique user experience in the
virtual/artificial environment [8, 9]. Therefore, users will
find it easy to establish connections and interactions in the
real world created by the designers.
Prior research discussed the characteristics of Virtual
Reality technology, which include mobilizing human senses
like touching, hearing, vision, and so on. As a result, the
user’s feelings will be maximized, irrespective of time and
space [10]. Virtual Reality application principally focuses on
four aspects like interiors, audio-visual display, planning and
design, and landscape [11, 12]. Previous studies discussed
the main functions of Virtual Reality application when
applied to public art design as follows: it enhances the el-
ement of interactivity and art designs; it can save costs with
regard to designing; it can effectively reduce the risks as-
sociated with designing; and it improves the nature of public
art design [10, 12–15].
A few other studies defined Virtual Reality Technology as
one of the emerging technologies that integrate advanced
technologies such as multimedia technology, network
technology, computer graphics, and simulation technology,
to provide great user experience. Using these technologies,
VR applications build a three-dimensional virtual or arti-
ficial environment that allows interaction through different
devices within the artificial built environment [16–18]. This
newly developed Virtual Reality Technology is developed by
integrating advanced technologies to provide a broad ex-
perience to the users/customers. Recent studies also dis-
cussed the need, significance, and usage of Virtual Reality
applications in the fields of engineering and found that VR
technology has the capability to reproduce actual working
environments [19, 20].
Different technologies such as hand gloves, 3D mouse,
sensors, video cameras, space balls, head-mounted displays,
and full-body suits are used in developing Virtual Reality
applications. The advantages and limitations of VR tech-
nology were also identified and discussed in this study [21].
Several studies discussed the need for virtual reality in this
modern world. VR technology fulfills the increasing needs of
users and customers. This technology has also made the lives
of humans much simpler. The limitations of augmented
reality were answered with the emergence of VR technology
[22]. Other growing needs of virtual reality include simu-
lating the real world with the integration of computer
hardware, computer software, and other integrating network
technologies, providing a physical presence in the imaginary
world (as shown in Figure 1, visualizing the working

environment using computer graphics and other simulation
techniques.
Past studies also confirmed that Virtual Reality is
widely applied in areas such as entertainment, medicine,
engineering, training, design, business, education and
conferencing, sales and marketing, museum and art design,
mobile and gaming applications, sports applications, data
visualization, military applications, architecture design,
prototyping, planning and maintenance, human factor
analysis, operations in a hazardous environment, and vi-
sual prototyping [23]. A Virtual Reality application is being
used within the business community that covers 360 de-
grees of business products, provides training to new em-
ployees; and conducts virtual tours of the business
environment. In addition, Virtual Reality applications are
also used to conduct training simulations, which allows
them to conduct professional training in the virtual en-
vironment, for instance, providing military training. VR
applications are predominantly used in the fields of en-
gineering and design as they facilitate changes as and when
required, reducing time and cost. Examples of engineering
and design include designing cars, constructing buildings,
and so on. Entertainment is one of the significant industries
that make use of virtual reality. Examples of entertainment
include virtual theme parks, virtual exhibitions, virtual
gaming, and virtual museums. In the fields of education
and conferencing, virtual reality has adopted for the
process of teaching and learning. VR technology allows
large groups to interact with one another in a three-di-
mensional environment [24–28].
In Virtual Reality, the computer automatically detects
the inputs given by the user and alters them immediately
using real-time technology, later producing output in the
virtual/artificial world. Usually, the VR visual experiences
are displayed on the screen of a computer or projector.
However, some technologies require additional access to
headphones/speakers. At times, the users get the opportu-
nity to use a keyboard or mouse and provide standard inputs
in a virtual environment, which becomes an interaction.
Along with all these advantages, VR applications also have
their own disadvantages such as technical limitations. The
resolution of the images, the power required to process the
images, and other technical limitations would be some of the
foreseeable difficulties when it comes to practicing Virtual
Reality applications. Nevertheless, these limitations can be
overcome by increasing the additional usage of updated
3
imaging technologies and using powerful processors that are
cost effective.
3. Research Methodology
Research knowledge accumulation can be built as a foun-
dation only through literature review. The literature review
provides a base for the theories, their expansions, identifies
research gaps, helps to close research gaps, and finally
discusses uncovered areas in any topic of the research area.
The key research areas that have not been focused so far will
be identified and explained in literature review. This research
adopts the systematic literature review (SLR) method to gain
an in-depth understanding of the Virtual Reality concept,
application of Virtual Reality in art design, and examine the
impact of Virtual Reality on public art design. This study also
reviews the features of Virtual Reality and its application in
art designs. SLR process includes the following steps: (1)
identifying the research questions; (2) systematically ana-
lysing the existing literature (search for literature); (3)
identifying the inclusion and exclusion criteria; (4) selection
process and data extraction; and (5) data synthesis. By
adopting the SLR method, researchers, as well as practi-
tioners, will be able to easily identify the findings of the study
to understand the analyse and identify the factors that
promote and hinder knowledge management as well as
knowledge sharing within the organizations and further
provide the inferences consequently. Moreover, researchers
and practitioners across the world can make use of the
findings and compare their knowledge management systems
or processes with those of other countries and industries. In
a nutshell, the SLR method identifies, analyses, and inter-
prets the results within the specific period related to the topic
in five phases as shown in Figure 2.
3.1. Frame Research Questions and Protocol. In order to trace
the appropriate publications during the period of 2010–2020
on the application of VR technology to art design, the re-
searcher raised the following research questions: (1) What
are the characteristics of Virtual Reality technology? (2)
What are the Virtual Reality presentation principles? (3)
What are the advantages of applying Virtual Reality tech-
nology? (4) What are the advantages of applying Virtual
Reality technology in art design? Table 1 presents the
identified research questions and key themes derived from
them. The questions and the respective themes were drawn
and identified from the gaps in knowledge and the re-
searcher’s experience with respect to VR technology, its
development and application in public art design. The
themes for the study were identified based on the theoretical
support. To analyse and identify the factors that examine the
impact of virtual reality on public art design, the study
discussed various identified themes and research questions.

Virtual Reality application, VR, VR implementation prin-
ciples, advantages of VR technology, application of VR in art
design, and so on. The research for the articles was carried
out from multiple electronic databases, which includes
Wiley Online Library, Science Direct, Springer, and other
digital libraries.
3.3. Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria. The study includes the
articles and research papers that include “Virtual Reality
Technology” in the titles, summary, abstract, keywords, and
the body of research that were published during the period of
2010 to 2020. Basically, the inclusion criteria were as follows:
(1) research studies, (2) research journals, and (3) unpub-
lished thesis. Similarly, the exclusion criteria in the study were
as follows: (1) research articles written in English; (2) research
articles that were not fully available in the electronic database.
3.4. Critically Appraising the Articles and Data Extraction.
The total number of research articles found was 50. Of those,
20 duplicates were eliminated. The articles selected for the
study were based on their quality, title, keywords, and
veloped, the data collected were synthesized and further
supported the content analysis of the selected research ar-
ticles. Thus, the study presents the inferences from content
analysis, which is a qualitative technique used to focus on
text. Content analysis includes two components, namely,
mechanical and interpretative. The mechanical component
allowed the researcher to organize the data collected into
different topics. While the interpretative method allowed
researchers to explore more of the content according to the
research questions. Later, the data synthesized were
reviewed by a three-peer group and identified the themes.
This peer review helped this research get more clarity on the
themes or research questions. Table 3 presents the items used
to examine and collect the research papers.
3.6. Review of the Articles. This section will present the re-
sults and discussions related to the research questions. As the
significance of Virtual Reality technology is increasing
nowadays across industries, they have been encouraged to
apply Virtual Reality technology. Past studies also confirmed
that Virtual Reality is widely applied in areas like

nance, human factor analysis, operations in hazardous en-
vironments, visual prototyping, and so on. Virtual Reality
technology and its application in the world is one of the most
promising research areas for the next 30 to 40 years.
3.7. Characteristics of Virtual Reality Technology. From the
analysis of the selected papers, it is observed that almost all
the studies on Virtual Reality technology found that
interactivity, efficiency, and multisensory perception are the
significant characteristics of VR technology. As virtual re-
ality technology is interactive by its nature, application of the
same, irrespective of the industry, certainly brings in the
features of interactivity into the virtual scenes, impossibly
making them realistic. The designers do have the flexibility
to add interactive features and modify the imaginary scenes
or objects. All these changes will be displayed on the
computer screen. The simulation technology applied in VR
technology makes it possible to note down the changes that
take place in the virtual scenes at certain places. All the shock
effects can be achieved with the addition of interactivity to
the artificial/virtual scenes. Furthermore, Virtual Reality
Technology can construct and modify the virtual models or
scenes in the art designs. A few other studies found that VR
technology has the potential to imagine the virtual envi-
ronment and create a structure to meet the requirements of
the users or customers, which is simple and virtual in nature.
This technology can also adjust the content as per the virtual
structure created by the designers. Therefore, it can be
confirmed that virtual technology can independently create
simulation scenes of the real world artificially to fulfil the
demands of the users or customers who are looking for a
different user experience [25].
Another significant characteristic of Virtual Reality
technology is its efficiency of the designs within the budgets
provided. In general, budget constraints turn out to be a
hindrance to building an efficient VR technology. In order to
be precise and complex, virtual reality technology comes up
with high requirements such as integrating simulation
technologies and networking technologies. This integration
gives the design perfection, which can even be modified
later. Above all, Virtual Reality technology has a few peculiar

design specifications, which can be created. However, the
quality of the designs cannot be completely guaranteed.
Designers also pay much attention to the user’s sensory
experience, which can have a double effect on the user [19].
Displaying 3D images altogether brings in different viewing
experience for the users. Also, use of sensors provides the
users a real tactile experience. Including all these factors can
enhance the real experience of the user in a virtual
environment.
4. Virtual Reality Presentation Principles
This study tried to analyse the journals that published and
discussed virtual reality presentation or implementation
principles. The study also analyzed those research articles
that identified the factors that promote virtual reality pre-
sentation principles. The selected papers are placed in a
database with the year of publication along with their titles.
Identifying the research studies that discussed largely on
virtual reality implementation principles across the indus-
tries helped them to produce better performance outcomes.
In fact, this study helped the researchers, practitioners,
policy makers, educational reformers, academicians, and
others to develop and support the experts in that research
field. As the human brain is much complex, Virtual reality
cannot be immersive. Bringing in the immersive experience
is quite difficult, as VR technology uses powerful computer
graphics. Only a computer’s external hardware will provide
such an immersive experience to the users. In addition, the
image processing ability should also be high, apart from
having powerful hardware and other required equipment.
Figure 3 presents the basic working principle of Virtual
Reality technology.
From Figure 3, it can be analyzed that the main hardware
equipment of virtual reality includes high performance
computers, shooting 360-degree camera arrays, head
tracking technology, and eyeball tracking technology, which
gives a 3D immersion experience of the art designs. It was
found that Virtual Reality technology would require external
hardware devices, that have powerful computing features.
These powerful computing functions capture key informa-
tion or data. Thus, computers with powerful performance
capacity are the core principle of VR technology. Likewise,
Virtual Reality glasses provide the user with an immersive
experience. This visual difference is primarily due to the
camera that can shoot 360-degree videos. These shooting
images provide three-dimensional effects when supported

by the visual wear equipment. Virtual reality enables a
panoramic interaction between people and 360° virtual vi-
sualization experience. Apart from the above, it also permits
the users to interact with the artificial world created by the
designers. Hence, three-dimensional technologies are one of
the fundamental features of VR technology [20, 22, 23].
A few other studies found that VR technology is highly
sensitive to having a head tracking technology apart from the
powerful imaging technologies. It was discussed that head
tracking technology captures human movements. It can also
predict the head movements of humans in the virtual world.
With the help of head tracking technology, the movement in
the real world and virtual world can be synchronized. It also
improves the experience of the user. Lastly, eyeball tracking
technology is also considered important because it can
provide users with an immersion experience. As the eyeball
is the primary focus of Virtual Reality technology, eyeball
tracking technology can be enabled to track the information
passed by the eyeball. Here, the computer tracks the eye
movements and transforms them into the computer through
algorithms, thereby providing a high immersion experience
for the users/customers [7, 8, 10].
4.1. Advantages of Applying Virtual Reality Technology.
Several research studies proved that there are several ad-
vantages of Virtual Reality technology that can be applied
across a wide range of industries. Virtual Reality is widely
applied in areas like entertainment, medical, engineering,
training, design, business, education, conferencing, sales and
marketing, museum and art design, mobile and gaming
applications, sports applications, data visualization, military
applications, architecture design, prototyping, planning and
maintenance, human factor analysis, operations in hazardous
environments, visual prototyping, and so on [11, 16, 18].
Virtual Reality application is being used within the business
community that covers 360 degrees of business products;
provides training to new employees; and conducts virtual
tours of business environment. In addition,, Virtual Reality
application is also used to conduct training simulations,
which allows them to conduct professional training in the
virtual environment, for instance, providing military training.
VR applications are predominantly used in the fields of
engineering and design as they facilitate changes as and when
required, reducing time and cost. Examples of engineering
and design include designing cars, the construction of
buildings, and so on. Entertainment is one of the significant
industries that makes use of virtual reality. Examples of en-
tertainment include virtual theme parks, virtual exhibitions,
virtual gaming, and virtual museum. In the field of education
and conferencing, virtual reality is adopted for the process of
teaching and learning. VR technology allows large groups to
interact with one another in a three-dimensional environ-
ment. The main advantages of applying Virtual Reality
technology are identified as providing multi-sensibility for the
users. With the implementation of 3D technology and other
simulation technologies, the display and music are highly
equipped to attract the attention of the audience. VR tech-
nology brings the users into a virtual/artificial realistic word
created by the designers, by breaking the traditional notions of
designing. Moreover, VR technology adds sensors that can
provide sensory experiences to the users, such as touching,
hearing, and vision, thereby simulating new experiences.
Much of the recent work discussed the budget accuracy of VR
technology and found that this technology has the capability
to achieve accuracy in terms of budget. Designers can come
up with a precise budget by calculating the simulation ma-
terials, decoration materials, design structure, and so forth, to
avoid the reduction of budget proposed by the customers.
Another significant advantage of VR technology is that it
provides unique interaction to the users at their convenience.
Virtual Reality technology enhances the element of inter-
activity with a high powerful display experience [4, 7].
4.2. Applying Virtual Reality Technology in Art Design.
Several studies state that applying Virtual Reality Technol-
ogy to art design improves the efficiency of art designs. It also
reduces the cost of trial and error. As art designs are
commonly complex in nature, they include several risks and
workloads at each stage of the designing process. Due to the
rapid increase in the cost of employment, the cost of art
designs is also increasing with each passing day. Therefore,
the trial-and-error cost also increased, which has become
one of the major expenses of designing companies. The
current aim of the designing companies is to reduce the trial-
and-error cost and at the same time increase the efficiency of
the VR experience, which will meet the needs of users and
customers. As the demands and perceptions of people keep
changing, the aesthetic ability of art designs are also growing
along with individual needs across industries. In Table 4, the
difference between virtual reality and traditional art design
technology, along with their advantages and disadvantages
are compared.
Likewise, the modelling process of Virtual Reality
technology, specifically for art design is considered the key to
enhancing human artistry and art design. Figure 4 represents
the modelling process of VR technology in art design.
Past studies confirmed that Virtual Reality Technology
is no more two-dimensional plans. Instead, it uses
powerful 3D imaging technologies to build artistry with
the addition of human values. With the help of computer
software, VR is used to build art models that have ele-
ments of interactivity and sensory perception. Hence, the
new technology enriches the user experience in modern

5. Conclusion
This study conducted a systematic literature review to have an
in-depth understanding of the Virtual Reality concept and its
application of Virtual Reality in Art design and to examine the
impact of Virtual Reality on public art design. This paper also
reviews the features of Virtual Reality and its application in art
designs. Findings of the study state that Virtual Reality
technology enhances the user experience by adding the ele-
ment of interactivity. It enhances the designing experiences in
terms of creativity and art. VR technology enhances the
designing process of art by implementing all the VR prin-
ciples. Results of the study state that VR technology enhances
the efficiency of art designs by reducing the cost of trial-and-
error designing, and lastly, integrating new technologies to
highlight art and human value. The needs of art can be better
reflected through Virtual Reality technology, as the designers
have the capability to reproduce the real world in an artificial
environment. The findings of the study aid the practitioner,
academicians, researchers, and others to identify the im-
provements that can be made in VR technology. However, it
should be noted that the study has limitations. The findings of
this study are inferences made from the existing literature.
Thus, future researchers can conduct empirical tests to derive
accurate results rather than mere inferences.
