Recently, there has been a growing interest in issues related to maintenance performance management, which is confirmed by a significant number of publications and reports devoted to these problems. However, theoretical and application studies indicate a lack of research on the systematic literature reviews and surveys of studies that would focus on the evolution of Industry 4.0 technologies used in the maintenance area in a cross-sectional manner. Therefore, the paper reviews the existing literature to present an up-to-date and content-relevant analysis in this field. The proposed methodology includes bibliometric performance analysis and a review of the systematic literature. First, the general bibliometric analysis was conducted based on the literature in Scopus and Web of Science databases. Later, the systematic search was performed using the Primo multi-search tool following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The main inclusion criteria included the publication dates (studies published from 2012–2022), studies published in English, and studies found in the selected databases. In addition, the authors focused on research work within the scope of the Maintenance 4.0 study. Therefore, papers within the following research fields were selected: (a) augmented reality, (b) virtual reality, (c) system architecture, (d) data-driven decision, (e) Operator 4.0, and (f) cybersecurity. This resulted in the selection of the 214 most relevant papers in the investigated area. Finally, the selected articles in this review were categorized into five groups: (1) Data-driven decision-making in Maintenance 4.0, (2) Operator 4.0, (3) Virtual and Augmented reality in maintenance, 4) Maintenance system architecture, and 5) Cybersecurity in maintenance. The obtained results have led the authors to specify the main research problems and trends related to the analyzed area and to identify the main research gaps for future investigation from academic and engineering perspectives.

There has been a rapid increase in the use of collaborative robots in manufacturing industries within the context of Industry 4.0 and smart factories. The existing human–robot interactions, simulations, and robot programming methods do not fit into these fast-paced technological advances as they are time-consuming, require engineering expertise, waste a lot of time in programming and the interaction is not trivial for non-expert operators. To tackle these challenges, we propose a digital twin (DT) approach for human–robot interactions (HRIs) in hybrid teams in this paper. We achieved this using Industry 4.0 enabling technologies, such as mixed reality, the Internet of Things, collaborative robots, and artificial intelligence. We present a use case scenario of the proposed method using Microsoft Hololens 2 and KUKA IIWA collaborative robot. The obtained results indicated that it is possible to achieve efficient human–robot interactions using these advanced technologies, even with operators who have not been trained in programming. The proposed method has further benefits, such as real-time simulation in natural environments and flexible system integration to incorporate new devices (e.g., robots or software capabilities).

“…There are also several other surveys that are not focused specifically on the Metaverse but on its related technologies. This includes the taxonomy of cybersecurity challenges faced in VR environments presented in Odeleye et al [ 20 ], where they systemically classify existing VR cybersecurity threats against existing defenses; the work by Böhm et al [ 21 ], who conducted a structured literature review on the combined use of AR with digital twin technology in the context of cybersecurity and discussed the benefits and security-related application areas for these combined technologies; and the survey by De Guzman et al [ 22 ] that reviewed various protection methods that have been proposed to ensure user and data security and privacy in mixed reality (MR). Other related work includes a survey on edge computing with digital twin technology [ 23 ] and a Metaverse digital twin resource allocation framework [ 24 ].…”

“…The concept of a digital twin is a virtual representation of a physical real-world object in the virtual world. Böhm et al [ 21 ] suggest that AR and digital twin technology can be used to enhance situation awareness for security professionals and domain experts through the direct connection of real-world objects in cyberspace, which can help facilitate the decision-making process when dealing with cyber threats.…”

The popularity of the Metaverse has rapidly increased in recent years. However, despite the attention, investment, and promise of the Metaverse, there are various cybersecurity issues that must be addressed before the Metaverse can truly be adopted in practice for serious applications. The realization of the Metaverse is envisioned by many as requiring the use of visualization technologies such as Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR). This visual aspect of the Metaverse will undoubtedly give rise to emerging cybersecurity threats that have not received much attention. As such, the purpose of this survey is to investigate cybersecurity threats faced by the Metaverse in relation to visualization technologies. Furthermore, this paper discusses existing work and open research directions on the development of countermeasures against such threats. As the Metaverse is a multidisciplinary topic, the intention of this work is to provide a background of the field to aid researchers in related areas.
