ai in vr and ar

AI improves the authenticity, interactivity, and personalization of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR). AI in VR is responsible for the generation of dynamic environments, the powering of intelligent NPCs, and the facilitation of natural user interfaces such as voice and gesture recognition. AI facilitates object recognition in AR, allowing virtual objects to connect with the real world in a seamless manner. AI also optimizes content, personalizes experiences, and analyzes user behaviour to gain insights. Games, education, healthcare, and virtual meetings are among the applications that render VR and AR more immersive and user-centric. Gesture recognition is one such application.

A simulated experience known as virtual reality might resemble the real world or be entirely unrelated to it. VR generally entails the use of headgear that produces an entirely immersive experience, frequently including sound and vision, to immerse people in an alternate reality. Additionally, by superimposing digital content on the actual world, augmented reality improves how users perceive their surroundings. Virtual items are placed in the real environment with AR, which is mostly encountered through devices like smartphones, tablets, or AR glasses. More natural & intuitive interactions in VR and AR settings are made possible by AI's ability to recognize hand gestures, facial expressions, and body motions. AI systems also examine user behaviour and preferences to customize AR and VR experiences.

The market growth is propeled by various factors including technological advancements, increasing demand for immersive experiences, growth in e-commerce and retail, expansion in education and training, advancement in mobile technology and many others. However, high development costs and privacy and security concerns are expected to slowdown market growth during the forecast period.

InsightAce Analytic follows a standard and comprehensive market research methodology focused on offering the most accurate and precise market insights. The methods followed for all our market research studies include three significant steps – primary research, secondary research, and data modeling and analysis - to derive the current market size and forecast it over the forecast period. In this study, these three steps were used iteratively to generate valid data points (minimum deviation), which were cross-validated through multiple approaches mentioned below in the data modeling section.

Through secondary research methods, information on the market under study, its peer, and the parent market was collected. This information was then entered into data models. The resulted data points and insights were then validated by primary participants.

Based on additional insights from these primary participants, more directional efforts were put into doing secondary research and optimize data models. This process was repeated till all data models used in the study produced similar results (with minimum deviation). This way, this iterative process was able to generate the most accurate market numbers and qualitative insights.

Secondary research

The secondary research sources that are typically mentioned to include, but are not limited to:

  • Company websites, financial reports, annual reports, investor presentations, broker reports, and SEC filings.
  • External and internal proprietary databases, regulatory databases, and relevant patent analysis
  • Statistical databases, National government documents, and market reports
  • Press releases, news articles, and webcasts specific to the companies operating in the market

The paid sources for secondary research like Factiva, OneSource, Hoovers, and Statista

Primary Research:

Primary research involves telephonic interviews, e-mail interactions, as well as face-to-face interviews for each market, category, segment, and subsegment across geographies

  • Industry participants: CEOs, CBO, CMO, VPs, marketing/ type managers, corporate strategy managers, and national sales managers, technical personnel, purchasing managers, resellers, and distributors.
  • Outside experts: Valuation experts, Investment bankers, research analysts specializing in specific markets
  • Key opinion leaders (KOLs) specializing in unique areas corresponding to various industry verticals
  • End-users: Vary mainly depending upon the market

Data Modeling and Analysis:

In the iterative process (mentioned above), data models received inputs from primary as well as secondary sources. But analysts working on these models were the key. They used their extensive knowledge and experience about industry and topic to make changes and fine-tuning these models as per the product/service under study.

The standard data models used while studying this market were the top-down and bottom-up approaches and the company shares analysis model. However, other methods were also used along with these – which were specific to the industry and product/service under study.
