Abstract
This paper describes and categories benefits of the use of VEs in
design review meeting collected from two industrial case studies. Main
benefits are: (1) the information and knowledge sharing; (2) the user
participation and requirement management; (3) the design decision making and
learning; (4) the visualisation and immersion of VE systems; (5) the
enhancement of designers' experience of the use of product; (6) the evaluation
of different lifecycle phases, and (7) the time and cost savings. Based on
this and other studies it has become clear that there are different types of
benefits and classifying and defining them in e.g. cost, time or effort is
difficult. This paper classifies these benefits in three categories: (1) VEs;
(2) design, and (3) business, and describes relations between them.
