In addition, mobile AR enables certain type of health interventions that can be deployed anywhere the patient is located and at various times. Mobile technologies are an increasingly promising platform for health interventions because they are attractive and familiar to patients and because of their ubiquity. Also, AR technology is more cost efficient than virtual reality and other comparable mobile emerging technologies because many patients already have these devices. All of these factors can increase the adoption of AR applications and the self-efficacy of patients to engage with these interventions. 

Moreover, with the continuous and rapid advancements in the technology sector, AR applications have emerged as a medium that allows companies to interact with consumers in an innovative and easy method. AR has been defined as a visualization technique that superimposes computer-generated data, such as text, video, graphics, GPS data, and other multimedia formats on top of the real-world view, as captured from the camera of a computer, mobile phone, or other devices. Augmented reality is the reality of the future educational system. Technology is already a significant factor impacting the education sector with digital content, smart classrooms, and online assessments. Schools and colleges are changing their traditional methods of teaching with the use of AR applications. 

The global mobile augmented reality (AR) market size is anticipated to witness significant growth during the forecast period.

Covid-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted global economies, resulting in workforce & travel restrictions, supply chain & production disruptions, and reduced demand & spending across many sectors.

Sudden decline in infrastructure development is expected to hamper the market growth for consumer, education, tourism sector. 

The slowdown in productions by OEMs and reduction in demand for mobile devices and other electronics devices has slightly pulled down the market for mobile AR. Shortages of components and materials have significantly impacted the global supply chains. In addition, reductions in various budgets and delay in planned projects in various industries have hampered the global economy.  

However, post-COVID-19, the AR technology is gaining slight traction owing to its benefits in visualization, annotation, and storytelling. AR technologies are aiding online learning and also offering access to cultural events, which is helping users to overcome the isolation of lockdowns. Several countries such as China, Japan, South Korea, and India are also expecting quick control over the outbreak, following a pre-emptive response in the form of lockdowns and social distancing. 

Moreover, as vaccines roll out across the globe and the pandemic situation is better controlled, especially in North America and Europe. This would boost the recovery of the mobile augmented reality (AR) market.
