Report ties growth of global augmented reality market to rise of smart phones
According to the report, Mind Commerce suggests that augmented reality is currently a niche market opportunity. The technology is capable of presenting consumers with a wide array of digital content and entertainment. Because the entertaining aspects of augmented reality are so prolific, the technology has seen limited practical use, thus is less appealing than other interactive technologies that can provide practical services. This is likely to change, however, as companies like Google, Samsung, and Qualcomm begin finding new ways to make use of augmented reality.
Growth may be powered by government interests and cloud computing technology
The report predicts that the global augmented reality market will see exceptional growth over the next several years. Developers of augmented reality applications are expected to benefit greatly from the growth the market experiences, especially as the world’s governments begin showing more interest in the technology. Cloud computing is also expected to contribute to the growth of the augmented reality market, enabling more robust services to become available to consumers.
