Global Virtual Reality Market, Component (Hardware, Software), Device Type (Head Mounted Displays, Gesture Tracking Devices), Technology (Semi-Immersive, Full-Immersive), Industry Vertical (Consumer Electronics, Aerospace & Defense) - Forecast till 2027
Synopsis of the Global Virtual Reality Market
Technology in the field of virtual reality is getting innovative, resulting in new virtual reality components. VR headsets which provide semi immersive technology will be replaced by entirely immersive technology-based products such as suits which allows haptic to full body. Fully Immersive virtual reality is the appearance of an artificial surrounding which replaces user’s real-world surroundings. Immersiveness is a significant component of virtual reality applications like VR gaming and VR therapy.
The virtual reality market is in its initial stage at present and is expected to show a tremendous growth rate during the forecast period. The market is majorly affected by increased digitization, enhancement, and integration with augmented reality and increased adoption of virtual reality in gaming and entertainment. The head-mounted displays are the key components that are supporting the market growth. Many developers are sticking to HMD technology since they do not require any other additional hardware for controlling. On the contrary side, the high costs of manufacturing due to SoC (System on Chip) integration is hampering the market growth. Manufacturers are working to cut down the costs by innovating new design patterns and new technologies for VR equipment.
5G technology will be a boost to mobile data performance which benefits the virtual reality. Industry experts consider that the onset of 5G technology will reveal the full potential of virtual reality. There will be a lot of data to be processed within the input mechanisms of VR. 5G faster speeds and lower latency helps in bridging the gap between the VR and speed data requirements. Technologists estimate that by implementing 5G in virtual reality helps in improving traffic capacity, network efficiency and decrease latency over 4G.
