Global Augmented Reality Market is estimated to grow with approx. 50.49% CAGR between the years 2017–2025. AR technology displays computer-generated images and provides relevant information about objects in the real world. The growth of global augmented reality market is primarily driven by following factors:

  • Increasing demand for AR applications in healthcare sector
  • Entertainment industry: a major user of AR technology
  • Growing integration of AR in mobile devices
  • Rising demand for AR based games

The important driver increasing growth in the global augmented reality market is rising demand for AR applications in the healthcare sector. Augmented reality in healthcare has been a game changer, and it has helped to transform the medical sector by facilitating to provide real-time data assistance during complex surgeries and supporting aftercare. Doctors and patients are also benefiting from this technology by using connected devices such as a smartphone or tablet to add crucial data to their treatment. The development in connected lenses and glasses is expected to help access the information more seamless in the coming years. For patients, the quality of treatment received from healthcare provider can be significantly improved with the use of AR technology.

 The augmented reality market has been segmented on the basis of product which includes mobile devices, smart glasses, and head mounted displays (HMD’s). Currently, mobile devices are the most extensively used devices for AR. However, smart glasses are expected to grow fast over the forecast period. Mobile AR technology is gaining traction at a rapid pace, driven directly by the increase in the number of mobile users adopting this technology. Several large companies such as Facebook, Apple, and Google are expected to launch AR apps that will enable more improved interaction with the real world.

Hardware limitations & compatibility issues are one the major drawbacks hindering the growth of global augmented reality market. Mobile devices need to possess enhanced features to support AR technology. Though processing power, sensors, and cameras are basic features on mobile devices, only those devices with enhanced features can use AR technology. High-end devices may seamlessly function while running AR apps, but low-end devices lack that capability. A depth-sensing 3D camera is one feature that can enhance the user experience; but still, is not common compatible with mobile devices.

The global augmented reality market segments are categorized by product and by the end users.

Products are segmented into:

  • Mobile devices
  • Smart Glasses
  • HMD’s

End users are segmented into:

  • Mobile devices AR end user
  • Smart glasses AR end user
  • HMD’s AR end user

The report scope is widely categorized on the basis of the type of augmented reality products and its end users. Moreover, the market revenue estimates and forecast includes only augmented reality market and exclude any other services, software or solutions related to augmented reality.

Geographically, the global augmented reality market has been segmented on the basis of four major regions, which includes:

  • North America – U.S. & Canada
  • Europe – UK, France, Germany Rest of Europe
  • Asia Pacific – Japan, China, South Korea, Rest of Asia Pacific
  • Rest of World

Geographically North America dominated the global AR market in 2016. The high adoption and acceptance of the latest technologies have led to increased usage of AR apps in mobile devices. The investments in AR technology by large corporations such as Apple, Google, Intel, and Qualcomm has increased the awareness about AR among the public. Furthermore, the US DoD was the first defense organization to adopt HMDs and the probability of more units being adopted during the forecast period is very much likely. APAC countries such as China and Japan are much ahead in term of adoption of AR as compared to their counterparts. However, the ability of the region to produce low-cost AR hardware could potentially propel the growth of the market in this region.

On the basis of the end user, the market has been segmented into Mobile devices AR end user, Smart glasses AR end user, and HMD’s AR end user. In mobile devices AR market, marketing and advertising hold the largest market whereas the gaming is expected to grow fastest. In smart glasses AR market, military defense holds the strong position and healthcare sector is anticipated to grow at a healthy rate. In HMD’s AR market, defense segment held the largest market share for the end user and is expected to continue this dominance throughout the forecast period. However, consumer sector is anticipated to grow fast. The military and defense sector are the highest adopters of HMDs. These devices are used by defense personnel to create a simulated environment to help train the graduating soldiers. They are also used to create virtual battleground simulations to develop important strategies.
