The virtual reality technology, which set out with the slogan of making a revolution in the digital world, could not be adopted due to many reasons such as the cost of helmets, the cost of source computers and insufficient content support in the mobile world. . However, there has been a rise in recent years.
Record VR sales
According to analysis by TrendForce, around 14 million virtual reality helmets are expected to be sold in 2022. About ten percent of this belongs to rich reality equipment.
9.86 million units were sold in 2021, over 50 percent there will be a large increase. In 2023, sales of around 18.8 million are expected. It is understood that the annual growth will slow down a bit.
It is estimated that virtual reality equipment will come to the fore, especially with the metaverse wind. The Oculus Quest 2 is the best-selling helmet in the consumer market, with price tags ranging from $200-$400. Brands such as HTC and PS VR are also operating in the market. On the corporate side, HoloLens 2 attracts more attention.
It is thought that important virtual reality projects of companies such as Sony, Apple and Meta may be delayed for a while. In this regard, the forecasts for 2023 vary.
