The XR Market
summary
Panel gives concrete forecasts and milestones: industry forecasts peg AR at about $30 billion by 2022 and ARKit/ARCore installs near 900 million this year, 3.5 billion in five years; e‑commerce shows an 11x sales uplift from mobile AR. Demonstrations that matter are Google Maps live AR navigation and image‑persistence/cloud anchors enabling synchronous multiplayer. Short‑term catalysts are Oculus Go holiday sales and Qualcomm’s XR1 chipset; long game hopes for smartphone‑tethered smart glasses around 2020. Big blockers remain hardware size/price, monetization of the AR cloud, and privacy/regulation.
