Many virtual reality applications make it their goal to copy real environments, interactions or tasks. This leads to similar experiences as we know them, especially since virtual reality cannot match the real experience at the current state of technology. However, virtual reality also allows us to do and experience things that are not possible in reality. The possibilities are almost unlimited and even override physical limits. Among other things, users‘ abilities can be expanded (physical, cognitive and perceptual). So you can fly in virtual reality, you can lift a virtual house, or you can adjust how you hear or see. Since we primarily draw on our wealth of experience when developing ideas, it is difficult for us to find completely new approaches. As a result, even in the area of developing virtual applications, they are often based on existing real-world approaches. The difficulty, therefore, lies in expanding our imagination. The department Experience and Interaction Design at the University of Applied Sciences Siegen has developed an associative creativity technique for this purpose [1]. The SuperPowers provide heuristics for extending abilities in virtual reality. For the categories „expanded ego,“ „expanded world,“ „expanded action,“ „expanded perception,“ and „expanded thinking,“ the researchers offer 15 heuristics for expanding one’s own creativity. Related to concrete application contexts, these can stimulate innovative ideas to make virtual applications more interesting.
