The Effect of Augmented and Virtual Reality Interfaces in the Creative Design Process

Abstract

The aim of the article is to investigate how virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) interfaces affect the creative design process in design education. The article focuses on how technology traits affect the creative design process. 10 subjects were selected and their design process was analyzed using protocol analysis. The results of the study indicate that epistemic action reduces cognitive load, thereby reducing fixation in the design process and enhancing the creative design process.
