Abstract: The rapid advancement of digital technology is revolutionising packaging design through the integration of virtual reality (VR) and semantic segmentation. Traditional two-dimensional design methods are inadequate for accurately conveying three-dimensional structures, textures, and product intricacies, This study presents an immersive packaging design system that leverages VR and deep learning-based semantic segmentation to address these limitations. The system was developed through a structured approach involving framework analysis, extensive data preparation, model training, and the creation of interactive VR environments. A user study with 50 participants demonstrated significant improvements in comprehension (average score: 4.2 vs. 3.0), satisfaction (4.0 vs. 2.8), engagement (4.1 vs. 2.5), and task efficiency (15 minutes to 10 minutes). An empirical case with a beverage brand further validated its effectiveness, showing increased consumer satisfaction, understanding, engagement, purchase intent. These results underscore the system's potential to enable intelligent, personalised, and immersive packaging design experiences.
Keywords: virtual reality; VR; semantic segmentation algorithms; package design; immersive experiences.
