In terms of revenue, the global virtual and augmented reality market is estimated to expand at a CAGR of 38.9% during the forecast period, owing to numerous factors, regarding which TMR offers thorough insights and forecasts in its report on the global virtual and augmented reality market.
Augmented reality is an advanced version of the real physical world, which uses technology to deliver digital information on an image and is majorly used in apps for tablets & smartphones. On the other hand, virtual reality is a technology that generates a simulated environment offering real user experiences with the support of computer technology such as special goggles with a screen built-in with sensors.
The rising trend of virtual reality becoming progressively social & collaborative, along with the rapid penetration of smartphones and tables is expected to offer several growth opportunities to the virtual and augmented reality market during the forecast period. Other factors boosting the demand for virtual and augmented reality includes increasing application of virtual and augmented reality in architecture and increase in research & development investments. As a result, the virtual and augmented reality market is anticipated to witness healthy growth rate during the forecast period.
Virtual and Augmented Reality Market: Dynamics
In the early days, hardware components of virtual and augmented reality were massive in size and less ergonomic. However, for large masses, hardware solution providers prefer providing a headset and controller of smaller size with high mobility focus. The headsets and controllers are expected to become more compact with the option of integration with mobile devices. This may also influence the demand for wireless devices, long battery life, and better ergonomic value in virtual and augmented reality hardware. Headsets currently available in the market, such as Sony Morpheus, HTC Vive Cosmos, Google Daydream, and Epson Moverio Pro BT350 are designed keeping in mind end user comfort and requirement. Furthermore, rising competition among players is expected to drive technology innovations and subsequently drive the demand for compact hardware virtual and augmented reality devices in the future.
