“…As can be seen in Figure 14, in the second stage the central theme of the path evolved into mixed reality, with telepresence as the only keyword directly linked to it, which shows the evolution of the research theme of the metaverse toward technological exploration. Mixed reality aims to make real objects interact with 3D digital content and increase mutual understanding by mixing the physical world and the virtual world (Zhang et al, 2022). At present, mixed reality has been widely used in medicine (Balci et al, 2022;Ogunseiju et al, 2022), education and other fields.…”

PurposeThe rise of the metaverse has brought profound changes to the economic and social operation models and injected new vitality into academic research. Although a large number of studies have emerged, there are few quantitative analyses of development frontiers and trends.Design/methodology/approachFrom a bibliometric perspective, this paper selects 183 pieces of metaverse-related literature in the WoS core database since 2000 as the object of analysis. This paper sums up the characteristics of the literature using the methods of descriptive statistical analysis, keywords analysis, thematic evolution analysis and summarizes the core themes and the laws of metaverse development in each stage.FindingsThe digital economy vision brought by the metaverse has led to an increasing number of researchers and achievements in this field. But the depth and breadth of research are still insufficient and unevenly distributed in the region, and the cross-fertilization fields need to be expanded. From the industry's point of view, VR games represented by Second Life and My World have contributed to the popularity of the metaverse. As technology progresses, the research hotspots in the field of metaverse gradually develop from conceptual research to artificial intelligence, blockchain, NFT and other technical applications. However, academic research has not yet caught up with the industry's pace and stays more in the concept discussion and preliminary application stage.Originality/valueA systematic overview of the current status, knowledge structure and hot issues of metaverse research is shown, which provides a thematic axis for this field, enriches and improves the quantitative analysis of its literature and provides a clear picture for researchers to continuously promote the development of this field. At the same time, it is necessary to warn that technological development is a double-edged sword. The process of metaverse development should return to rationality, respect the laws of its development and guarantee the healthy development of the metaverse by strengthening legal regulation and the ethical review of science and technology.

As “Industry 4.0” progresses, construction machinery is evolving toward large-scale, automation, and integration, resulting in the equipment becoming increasingly sophisticated, and the designs more difficult. Labor costs, transportation, and time will be huge challenges for construction machinery, and mixed reality technology is one of several possible ways to solve this challenge. The research presented in this paper develops a holographic visual verification platform for a digital prototype of construction machinery based on virtual terminal equipment, through investigating the synchronous remote collaboration of multiple terminal devices in a mixed reality scenario. These included semi-physical virtual-real fusion assembly, multi-person real-time voice communication, dynamic loading of MR model based on a cloud server, virtual imitation control, interface design, and human-computer interaction. The effectiveness of this paper’s method is demonstrated through remote collaborative design cases. These included a double drum roller, loader, and milling planer welding production line, as well as tractor modeling review and virtual simulation manipulation of an aerial work platform. The experimental results show that this visual verification platform is a feasible, low-cost and scalable solution, which brings a qualitative breakthrough to the design, research and development, production and other stages in the field of construction machinery.
