Abstract
This work looks into previous use of augmented and virtual reality in the context of conducting and communicating science in Antarctica and similar environments. A pattern observed in previous work quantity and keywords used. I found similarity of previous work in Antarctica in its unique isolated confined environment was done to prepare for missions to outer space. Then I report on potential future directions for the use of AR/VR in Antarctica and we suggest few applications where this might be useful in the future.
