Market Dynamics

Driver: Increased adoption of AR & VR technologies

Increasing importance of VR and AR technologies in business and consumer solutions has resulted in the wide adoption of HMDs across the globe. The major reason for adopting AR and VR technologies is to eliminate the need for a user to be physically present in environments. For example, a 3D interpretation of patient images, product designs, and factory layouts allows people and facilities to be remotely monitored and attended to as needed, in real time.

The flexibility offered by AR technology makes it a leader for enterprise application for adoption over the long term. However, both AR and VR technologies drive the market as a new computing platform, much like mobile computing drove advancements in the smartphone market. In the consumer application, HMDs are mostly used for gaming and entertainment. Enterprises and industries are adopting AR and VR technologies for upgrading infrastructure and creating an ecosystem of VR-related applications. Growing potential of AR HMDs in the commercial application (used for advertising and promoting products to enhance the sale) has resulted in the increased adoption of HMDs in this application. Rapid advancements in computing technology and the rise of video games helped VR technology make smaller and more immersive devices. AR has been based on taking information from the real world and displaying an interpreted version of the idea. VR and AR technologies are a key to the resumption of growth in the HMD market
