Augmented and Virtual Reality
Augmented and virtual reality are garnering much attention after a CES 2015 with many new products in the market. Major companies, such as Samsung and Facebook, are getting involved with their own products, including hardware, software, and content. Standalone, mobile-reliant, and tethered devices will all see major growth over the next 5 to 10 years, with mobile-reliant devices experiencing the most early growth. AR devices will see the most success in enterprise uses, such as logistics and engineering, while VR devices will be centered on consumers and the gaming market.
