The growing penetration of the Metaverse

By Offering: Software segment to account for the larger market share in the forecasted year.

The software segment accounted for the largest share of ~52% of the virtual reality market in 2029. Software enables virtual reality experiences such as informative overlays, interactive games, and navigation aids. In contrast, virtual reality software creates entirely digital environments where users can explore, interact, and manipulate objects. This software often includes 3D modeling, physics simulations, and rendering engines to provide immersive virtual reality experiences like gaming, simulations, training, and virtual tours. Virtual reality software is critical for delivering the content and interactions that define the user's experience within these immersive environments. Increasing penetration of virtual reality software solutions and their compatibility with existing hardware devices are expected to grow the virtual reality market for software during the forecast period.

By Application: Consumer application to account for the largest market share in the forecasted year.

Consumer segment accounted for the largest share of ~44% of the virtual reality market in 2029. The growth in consumer segment is attributed as VR offers a level of immersion that traditional gaming can't match. By placing you right in the center of the action, VR lets you feel like you're truly part of the game world.  Imagine dodging bullets or swinging a sword, all while feeling the virtual environment around you. Also, Museums are using VR to create captivating experiences that bring collections and exhibits to life. VR allows visitors to virtually travel through time and space, immersing themselves in historical periods or getting up close and personal with artworks in ways that wouldn't be possible otherwise.
