However, for installing the software and software updates strong and large storage system is required. The less storage and restricted size of the memory card in mobile phone limits the adoption of the augmented reality apps. Other factors limiting the growth of the market are the high cost of the software and devices and lack of knowledge about the technology.

Global AR in Enterprise Market

Segmentation

Software and hardware are two essential components of AR in enterprise solutions. Key hardware components used in augmented reality technology includes cameras, sensors, semiconductors, position trackers, projection display, etc. Whereas, the software components include software development kits, software functions, and cloud-based services. On the basis of the component, the hardware segment accounted for the major market share in the global AR in enterprise market. In 2017, more than 60% of market share was contributed by the hardware segment. For the utilization of augmented reality applications terminal devices with intense hardware, modules are very vital. The key functions such as visibility and operating effects depend on the quality of hardware. Thus the rising demand for the technically advanced and easy to operate hardware for augmented reality is expected to propel the growth of hardware segment over the forecast period.

A head-mounted display, heads-up display, and smart glass are the three major types of displays used in AR in enterprise market. The head-mounted display segment is expected to register the highest CAGR growth of 52.2% between 2017 and 2025. The head-mounted display is one of the basic components in the headsets. It offers advanced vision along with high-resolution 3D images and viewing. The rising adoption of a head-mounted display in augmented reality and decreasing cost of HMDs are factors propelling the growth of this segment in the global market in the coming years. Moreover, the demand for the AR-based heads-up display is also increasing in the aviation and automotive industry thus propelling the growth of the heads-up display segment in the coming years.

The AR technology is being highly adopted by the large enterprises. Owing to the need for the high investments in the technology currently large enterprises are contributing the major share in the global market. Large enterprises invest in advanced technologies in order to increase their output. By making use of AR technology they train their employees and also enhance their customer experiences. In 2017, a major market share of over 60% was contributed by the large enterprises. However, it is anticipated that in the forecast period small and mid-sized enterprises will also be highly embracing this technology owing to its benefits.

Augmented reality technology is being highly used in several sectors such as healthcare, retail, automotive, gaming, etc. Among these, the automotive sector accounted for the major market share of over 31% in 2017. It is anticipated that this dominance will be retained during the forecast period. In the coming years, there will be an increased adoption of the AR technology in enhancing the driver’s experience. Information will be displayed to the drivers via the windscreens with the help of AR technology. AR technology will help in visualizing the general design and the body structure of the vehicle thus benefitting in the manufacturing process. Owing to these increased benefits of AR technology in the automotive sector its popularity will increase in the coming years.

North America is leading in the global AR in enterprise market with a huge market share of over 37% in 2017. The early and the increased adoption of the advanced technologies is the key factor driving the growth of the market in this region. Followed by North America, Europe also holds a significant share in the global AR in enterprise market. Increasing adoption of the augmented reality technology in the automotive sector contributed to the growth of the market in Europe. The strong display manufacturers present in the emerging nations such as China and Japan are contributing to the growth of the AR in enterprise market in the Asia Pacific.
