Extended reality in AEC

This article presents a survey on extended reality (XR) application to architecture, engineering, and construc-tion (AEC). A systematic literature review (SLR) of studies found in the Scopus digital library is carried out for that purpose. The SLR comprises 983 relevant papers published between 2011 and 2022. It frames and aggregates research by the AEC field and by the usage of XR technologies. With that aim, specific taxonomies are developed and applied. Research typologies, including used approaches and contributions, are also examined. Furthermore, the limitations and challenges cited in the analyzed studies are addressed. This SLR is primarily addressed to researchers for decision-making in identifying and scoping future research activities. It is also directed to AEC practitioners as a source to determine the conditions in which XR can be used and what its implications are.
