Exploring Factors Impacting User Adoption of Virtual Reality in Projects: A Literature Survey

Virtual Reality (VR) can assist in projects through project development and sustainable growth. DeLone-McLean theory of information systems success suggests that the use and user satisfaction with technology can impact the net benefit such as project performance. Borrowing from this, in the context of this research, the user acceptance of VR should impact positive outcomes for projects. Therefore, this paper aims at exploring the factors impacting user acceptance of VR in projects. Many researchers have explored the drivers of the user acceptance of technology, however there is a lack in literature surveys that provide a big picture of the drivers of user acceptance of VR in projects. Therefore, collecting data from a pool of journal papers that have dealt with the topic, this study collects and presents factors impacting user acceptance of VR in projects in a structured manner. Identifying factors impacting user adoption of VR in projects can assist practitioners particularly in the engineering and construction sector to increase project performance and success for professional practice.
