Market Overview
Augmented Reality (AR) is the fusion of digital information with the real-world environment. It is able to offer such an immersive experience with various digital visual elements and sensory stimuli through holographic technology. AR includes three features – integration of the physical and digital world, real-time interactions, and precise 3D identification of real & virtual elements. It offers an enhanced way to curate, design, and deliver instructions by overlapping the digital information on the user's environment in real-time. It thereby serves a wide variety of purposes, from assisting in decision-making to entertainment.

Growth Drivers
- Surging usages of Augmented Reality devices are likely to fuel the growth of the global market.
The growing number of users of Augmented Reality devices is one of the primary reasons for the exponential growth of the global Augmented Reality market. The high penetration of smartphones has made them a basic necessity for people all across the globe. Additionally, the inclusion of new features and services by the service providers, along with their high availability at economical prices, is the driving force behind the growing demand for Augmented Reality devices.
Furthermore, the fast development of telecom infrastructure and the high disposable income of people is encouraging more people to purchase high-tech smartphones. As a result, the increase in the user base of different hand devices, including tablets and smartphones, is encouraging companies to leverage mobile Augmented Reality technology, which is likely to further accentuate the growth rate of the global Augmented Reality market.
Restraints
- Health issues associated with the high use of Augmented Reality are likely to impede the growth of the global market.
The growing popularity of AR-based games has increased health problems among users. The highly immersive and interactive content engages gamers for long hours, causing various health problems like eye issues, obesity, migraines, anxiety, lack of concentration, etc.
Apart from these, exposure to electromagnetic radiation can cause severe and chronic medical problems. As a result, these factors are likely to hamper the growth of the global Augmented Reality industry.
Opportunities
- The rapidly growing travel and tourism sector will open new growth opportunities in the global market.
Travel and tourism are one of the fastest-growing industries worldwide. The tourism market works on the information. Therefore, AR plays a crucial role in offering information to users to improve the experience of travelers and tourists. Also, it is used in different cultural institutions to increase the engagement rate of visitors through real-time navigation. It is also used for outdoor applications. Tourists use different handheld devices to point out any physical objects and locations. It allows them to learn and gain knowledge about anything and everything that comes their way.
For instance, if a visitor wants to visit a nearby vegetarian restaurant with 5-star reviews – AR can help this visitor by showing a list of restaurants with said filters. Therefore, it significantly enhances the travel experience of tourists. Thereby offering high ROI to the industry.
Challenges
- Reconfiguration of AR applications on different platforms is the biggest challenge in the global market.
Major applications in AR are built for a particular software program. Hence, not every program can be configured using the same design. Therefore, it requires extra time and effort to customize each software. Also, AR has many limitations related to Android versions, operating systems, programming languages, and platforms.
Segmentation Analysis
The global Augmented Reality market can be segmented into application, device type, offering, technology, and region.
On the basis of application, the market can be segmented into automotive, energy, aerospace & defense, healthcare, manufacturing, commercial, consumer, and others.
