      APAC to account for the largest share of augmented reality market during the forecast period

      The flourishing enterprises (manufacturing) sector in China and Japan is projected to fuel the growth of the augmented reality market in APAC. The gaming industry in this region has also witnessed significant growth, thereby contributing to the increased demand for augmented reality technology in APAC. Additionally, rising investments in commercial applications of augmented reality are also expected to contribute to the growth of the market in APAC. Moreover, the thriving healthcare and automotive sectors in Japan are also projected to drive the demand for AR technology in the region.

      The novel coronavirus has affected the global economy to a large extent. The economies in APAC, including Japan, China, South Korea, India, and Australia, have a significant contribution toward the global economy as they are home to various manufacturing and assembly plants in the world. China, which is known as the manufacturing hub of the world, faced a serious economic crisis owing to the spread of the virus and brought all economic activities to a standstill for weeks. The other countries, such as India, Australia, South Korea, and Japan, have also witnessed a downfall in the economic activities across various sectors.

      Some of the key companies operating in the market are Google, Inc. (US), PTC Inc. (US), Seiko Epson (Japan), Microsoft (US), Lenovo (Hong Kong), Samsung Electronics (South Korea), Apple (US), and so on.
