The augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) is experiencing heavy penetration in the training and infotainment market. The major reason behind heavy penetration is the wide spectrum of application areas for these technologies. Early in 1960’s virtual reality based machines started to be patented and were considered as the beginning of virtual reality. Virtual reality is the three dimensional interactive world produced by a computer. The term “augmented reality” was introduced as a variation of virtual reality; it is a form of technology used to enhance real time object by imposing virtual image over it. Augmented reality application was first used for the development of virtual advertisement on television then it expanded its applications in gaming and entertainment.
Augmented reality is still under progressive stage and focuses on wearable technology like goggles, contact lens and so on which will be commonly used in future. Many research and development are taking place in application areas like healthcare, education, military, enterprise, and so on. The increase of demand in virtual reality application in healthcare industry shows a tremendous growth and it act as a major driver for the market. The market growth has resulted in exponential increase in the number of companies operating in the augmented reality /virtual reality domain. The companies which provide virtual reality and augmented reality tools to the developers are reinforcing their position due to the increase in the competition.

By Components and Sensors:
The component and sensor market for augmented reality and virtual reality are also covered in the report. Components such as: displays, gloves, head gears, processors, engines, and so on are taken in to account. Sensors are required at the input side of the system. They are usually used to detect the position, location, and orientation of user. Thus, mostly position related sensors such as accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer are used. Image sensor is also required to capture the real world in the device.
By Application:
The application chapter includes various applications such as: automotive, e-commerce and retail, marketing, medical, military & defence, and education. Among the mentioned applications, e-commerce and military are the one’s seeing maximum penetration currently. However, other applications are expected to emerge rapidly by the year 2015.
By Geography:
The global report is split by four major regions. It includes North America, Europe, APAC, and ROW. The split gives an insight about the regional untapped potential and preference.
