The Relevance of Visual Cues in Immersive Environments: Does Pictorial Realism Matter?
This paper aims at contributing to the debate on the extent to which cues of visual perception and pictorial realism in virtual reality (VR) environments are relevant in the context of construction practices. The discussion is conducted with the support of literature on human visual perception in physical and virtual environments. The article provides and develops on the argument that for various current VR applications in the construction industry VR environments may not need to resemble the physical world, especially in the design phase. Understanding the intricate relationship between our visual perception processes and information demands in the various construction activities could lead to the identification of visual aspects that are actually relevant for effective VR experiences. The discussion is merged into a summary on the power, limitations, and suitability of VR technology in building construction, followed by final considerations.
