Virtual Reality (VR) is well introduced and highly accepted in the international society of institutional research. It is intuitively the correct man machine interface for all product design process stages. The application of VR in manufacturing possesses immense potential and challenges, both in the field of research and industrial applications. Manufacturing industry in particular the aerospace and automotive industry shares this excitement about VR. Research has provided a virtual manufacturing (VM) environment to these industries for simulating process design and reducing the cost. The potential future role of VR in manufacturing is discussed at the end of the text.
