WIMI's Industry

With the introduction of the underlying platform by system vendors such as Apple and Google, it is much more convenient for developers to create and apply diverse AR contents, enabling AR technology to quickly reach a large number of users. In addition, stores offering AR experiences are penetrating rapidly into shopping malls in China, which has enabled consumers to enjoy the AR experience at a low cost and promoted consumers' acceptance of AR.

Currently, advertisement is the biggest vertical of AR. According to Frost & Sullivan, the market size was estimated at RMB1.5 billion in 2016, and it is expected at RMB7.8 billion by 2020, with a CAGR of 71.6%, much higher than the online advertising market, which had a CAGR of 32.4%. As AR technology keeps evolving to satisfy advertisers' growing needs, it will be used increasingly in advertisement. Entertainment, including gaming and video, takes a huge share of AR sector as well, and it is expected to have a higher growth rate. The market size of RMB0.6 billion in 2016 is expected at RMB6.8 billion by 2020, with a CAGR of 83.5%.

Driven by the availability of AR SDK, improvements in smartphone performance and prospects of the gaming industry, AR entertainment is expected to have a promising future with market size of RMB180 billion by 2025, indicating a CAGR of 92.6%, and surpassing advertisement to be the biggest application scenario of AR.
