Technavio Report: Mobile Augmented Reality Market to Grow by USD 83.48 Billion from 2022 to 2027
The Mobile Augmented Reality Market is set to experience significant growth in the coming years, with a potential difference of USD 83.48 billion between 2022 and 2027. This growth is being primarily driven by the increasing dependence on apps and the proliferation of AR apps for various activities. The widespread use of smartphones and the availability of affordable mobile devices have expanded the potential user base for AR applications, leading to increased demand and usage.
One of the key factors fueling the growth of the market is the availability of high-speed Internet and the expansion of 4G and 5G networks, which enable real-time data processing for seamless AR experiences that require constant data exchange. Industries such as real estate, architecture, and corporate environments are utilizing AR applications for virtual tours, visualizing designs, and enhancing productivity and efficiency through maintenance, repair, and training purposes.
However, stringent government regulations on data privacy pose a major challenge to the market’s growth. Regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe can increase costs and compliance needs for AR developers and service providers. Non-compliance with these regulations can result in penalties and reputational damage, limiting the growth of market players. Additionally, regulations on content, copyright, and intellectual property can impact the development and distribution of AR content, affecting functionality and user experience.
Despite these challenges, the market is expected to grow significantly, especially in the marketing and advertising segment. AR offers interactive experiences that traditional advertising methods cannot match, engaging consumers and allowing them to interact with virtual objects in real environments. Brands are leveraging AR to reach consumers through social media platforms, enhancing the reach of marketing campaigns.
Key companies in the mobile augmented reality market include Alphabet Inc., Apple Inc., Magic Leap Inc., and PTC Inc., among others. The market has been segmented by application, end-user, and geography to provide a comprehensive analysis of the industry landscape.
