Some Interesting Statistics & Facts on Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR)
- Over the most recent 5 years, the quantity of VR users has become from under 1 million to 150+ million.
- The virtual reality market made a stunning $54 billion of every 2018 from devices alone.
- VR market is expected to achieve the sign of $186 billion altogether from offers of devices and services by 2020.
- Augmented reality will be an innovation most loved for some industries in the following couple of years, particularly to gaming, healthcare, entertainment and retail.
- In 2016, income from AR mobile applications added up to $725.4 million around the world.
This figure is radically expanding from that point forward.

Latest Advancement in Virtual Reality (VR)
It's an exciting time for VR we've come a long way since the dreaming about VR in the 80s and VR technology has advanced more in the last two years than it has in the past 30 here the top five latest VR technologies that are changing our reality at an ever-increasing rate.
1. Control VR
The first thing that most people do when they first experience VR is, put their hands in front of them and realize they aren't there.
Control VR are working on a solution to this problem by using motion sensor technology to allow you to see your hands and body within the VR world. Allowing you to have a fully immersive experience they've used military-grade motion trackers that track all armed hand and even finger motions to one tenth of a degree behind the project lies.
The possibilities control VR will bring are endless including picking up objects, loading weapons and even going to work in your very own VR world.
2. VR Gloves
VR gloves will revolutionize the virtual experience by allowing visual and vibratory feedback. Whilst being emerged imagine being able to sit down at a grand piano in a packed out concert hall and play all the tunes you learnt on your Casio keyboard when you were 10 years old, well soon you can.
VR glove technology is still at an early age but developers have already created gloves to track motion detect objects, apply touch sensations and one day will even apply heat when touching hot objects in the virtual world. This is exciting technology with endless possibilities for development companies and future games.
3. 8K VR Headsets
Primax VR is an 8K VR headset that offers dual 4k resolution display for each eye. This amazing headset has 16 million pixels which is more than six times the resolution of current VR headsets.
Primax VR also supports eye tracking and full positional tracking for a more realistic experience when in the virtual world. Primax is also collaborating with industry partners such as Steve, NVIDIA and Valve, as well as also working with big names such as Disneyland to create new VR simulation rides that will take virtual reality to new levels.
Just try not to cry when your favorite roller coasters get demolished because they are not realistic enough anymore. 8K headsets will the way in VR technology, the future is bright literally
4. VR Motion Chairs
VR motion chairs are becoming increasingly popular amongst developers due to their ability to provide a more immersive experience when used with VR leading developers.
This advanced technology is being designed to take the VR experience to new levels by incorporating a full 360 degree motion, which is perfect for flight simulations and theme-park simulators. Other developers are leading the way in bringing this technology to your very own home with their racing cubes simulator.
This powerful home simulator provides plug and play into your home PC and is currently engineered to work with over 80 games. Other less advanced designs such as the VR go are more likely to find themselves wrapped up under a Christmas tree.
Within the next 5 years offering a simpler lighter more compact VR chair designed for all ages this hands-free. VR chair may not be as advanced as others but it's a great starter chair for the future of VR gaming
5. Omnidirectional Treadmills
Omnidirectional Treadmills have you ever wished that. The holodeck in Star Trek was real. Well omnidirectional treadmills are the first stages to this leading-edge technology.
Imagine being able to realistically walk around the personal world such as in GTA. Well this could soon be a reality, thanks to its developers. With the axon VR exosuit users will be able to walk around as well as climb stairs and even play sports.
Using the latest treadmill technology along with the cyber avert, relies err with its innovative design that holds you steady, allowing your legs to walk, jump and crouch just like in the real world. Designs like these are being designed for home use as well as commercial arcade use. Omnidirectional treadmills will be the future of VR gaming as their groundbreaking technology becomes more affordable.
This technology has endless possibilities including online virtual worlds such as Second Life becoming more realistic. Who knows maybe one day we will all prefer virtual reality than reality.
Latest Advancements in Augmented Reality (AR)
1. Advanced AR Wearables
AR is coming into the front line with various wearables out there that are reinventing AR and removing it from the mobile screens and putting them on AR goggles.
This innovation is ending up progressively fit and increasingly develop.
Consequently, viewpoints like profundity of field and 3-dimensional sound experience are turning into a progressively multifaceted piece of AR and making a completely independent gadget that is untethered.
The video resolution and color quality are enhancing steadily. An objective during the current year is to make AR run faster as it works with real-time data but then go for low power utilization.
2. AR Drive Holographs
The present-day case of AR holograph would be a holographic navigation system for vehicles. A progressed augmented reality interface gives you clear bearings and an abundance of accommodating data intended to accept you to your goals as fast and securely as could be expected under the circumstances.
Because of this, solution drivers don't have to wear any uncommon eyewear or headgear as the AR visuals are anticipated straightforwardly to the front windshield of the vehicle.
3. AR Hololens
The Hololens is an independent holographic computer that enables you to view and interact with digital content that it anticipates onto your general surroundings.
Using special sensors, advanced optics, and a holographic processor; it aims to transform the way in which we work, play, share and learn.
Since 2016, there have been several applications developed for the Hololens users for them to experience augmented reality in new and innovative ways.
General Advancements in AR and VR in 2019
Iris recognition is a good direction to work on this year. With AR and VR sets having no specific keyboard to sign in, the users would then be able to sign into their preferences by iris identification technology.
The screen door effect always been an irritating problem that each user and provider needed to confront. All the big organizations are attempting to minimize the screen door effect of AR and VR sets.
The VR and AR application development trend will always be around and stay strong. All the augmented and virtual reality projects can only begin with a mobile app, but that would be just the first step.
