Opportunity: Continuous developments in 5G technology
Immersive VR market is becoming increasingly popular for both personal and business use. It is anticipated that the introduction of 5G technology will solve certain issues by enabling the most efficient deployment of processing power. 5 G's improved performance enhances the VR application user experience through reliable and faster connections. Virtual reality experiences can become more responsive with reduced latency and increased data transmission rates, while graphics can also allow for real-time streaming of complex 3D images and better-quality data.
Challenge: High energy consumption and latency issues
The effectiveness of VR devices is influenced by a few technological factors that need to be carefully considered. The two most significant factors are energy consumption and display latency. Latency, or the interval of time between a user's action in a virtual reality environment and its visual display, influences the user's sense of immersion with these technologies. The slightest delays could result in uneasiness, perplexity, or a sense of being cut off from the virtual world.
