Global Virtual Reality (VR) Market Size Study & Forecast, by Device (Head-Mounted Display (HMD), Gesture-Tracking Device (GTD), Projectors & Display Wall (PDW)), by Technology (Semi & Fully Immersive, Non-immersive), by Component (Hardware, Software), by Application (Aerospace & Defense, Consumer, Commercial, Enterprise, Healthcare, Others), and Regional Analysis, 2023-2030
Global Virtual Reality (VR) Market is valued at approximately USD 59.96 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 27.5% over the forecast period 2023-2030. Virtual Reality (VR) is a computer-generated simulation or recreation of a three-dimensional world that is designed for interaction and exploration. A head-mounted display (HMD) that shows the virtual environment, collectively with other sensory equipment such as motion trackers and hand controllers, is often worn by the user when engaging in VR. The Virtual Reality market is continuously evolving, with advancements in technology, improved hardware, and expanded content offerings. The surging adoption of HMDs in different industries, rising investments in the VR sector, rapid digitization, and increasing use of virtual reality (VR) in instructional training, coupled with a growing emphasis on enhanced user experiences are the most prominent factors that are propelling the market demand across the globe.
Moreover, the rising trend of live virtual entertainment is exhibiting a positive influence on the market expansion. The concept of live virtual entertainment is expanding as people are inclined towards watching live performances and events from the comfort of their own homes using technology. The demand for live events, such as sports games or music concerts, is significantly increasing as a result of the potential of technology to engage consumers in a real-world setting. For instance, in April 2022, the rock band Foo Fighters had their performance on the Meta virtual stage, presenting 180-degree live-streaming footage using the Meta Quest headset. Likewise, in March 2021, a virtual event platform with real-time, personal engagement and interaction was made available by 3D-VR LiVE. Therefore, it is anticipated that the growing demand for virtual live entertainment is associated with virtual reality technologies, which is augmenting the market growth during the estimated period. Furthermore, the rapid penetration of HMDs in healthcare and architectural applications, as well as the rising adoption of VR in aerospace & defense for training and simulation presents various lucrative opportunities over the forecast years. However, the health concerns relating to low resolution and lack of movement, along with display latency and energy consumption affect the overall performance of VR devices and are hindering the market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.
