N2 - The industry is currently operating in the fourth industrial revolution, also called Industry 4.0, the central element of which is the digitization of companies. One promising implementation of Industry 4.0 is the use of virtual reality (VR). Due to its development in terms of better affordability and accessibility in recent years, VR has gained increasing popularity. This creates new opportunities especially for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to use VR to boost business and optimize their product development and processes. In this paper, we aim to identify the potentials and challenges of using VR in SMEs by means of a systematic literature review. Therefore, we focus on analyzing the current state of the art, including use cases, used technology, opportunities, and challenges faced by the companies.
