Global Market for Head Mounted Display Products is Anticipated to grow at a Significant Pace i.e., USD 38.1 Billion during the Forecast Period 2025 - 2030

Published Date: Mar, 2024

The global head mounted display market is expected to witness a CAGR of 46.2% during the forecast period 2025-2030. The key factors contributing to the growth of the global head-mounted display market are the increase in investments by the industry players, increasing prominence of VR and AR technologies as a result of COVID-19, low-cost HMDs, rise in digitalization, and technological development in the head-mounted display. However, the lack of standardization of HMD design, health issues related to low resolution and lack of motion, screen delay, and power consumption will impact the overall performance of the VR devices, which may create obstacles in the head-mounted display market globally. Nevertheless, the increase in funds in head-mounted displays will offer potential opportunities for market growth. The rise in demand for mobile-based AR applications, the introduction of lightweight wearable technology, and lightweight display manufacturers are positioning head-mounted display as a consumer product, thus contributing to the growth of the global head-mounted display market.

Microsoft has won a USD 22 billion contract for manufacturing Augmented Reality Gear from the US Army. It would start manufacturing Integrated Augmentation Systems under the contract, which is for over a timeline of 10 years.

The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the global head-mounted display market as the manufacturing units of the key players are temporarily shut down due to stringent lockdown and limited supply of raw material and a lack of skilled labor. Due to the pandemic, many scheduled product launches and related developments have been postponed. However, during the forecast period, the impact of COVID19 is expected to decrease.
