AR HUD Market

The global AR HUD market was valued at USD 2.14 Billion in 2020 and is projected to reach USD 13.97 Billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 26.43%% from 2021 to 2028.

Augmented reality (AR) head-up displays (HUDs) are the next evolution toward creating a better driving experience. Instead of showing secondary static information, AR HUDs can display graphics that interact with the driver’s FOV, overlaying critical information directly onto the real world. This requires the integration of a vast amount of real-time vehicle sensors data. An AR HUD can identify threats by directly marking them within the driver’s FOV.

The global AR HUD market is segmented based on by Application, Sales Channel, regions, and countries. The regional segmentation provides current and forecast demand across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. All the segments have been analyzed on the basis of present and future trends. Rising demand for AR HUD  in various countries such as the U.S., Germany, China, India, and Japan, among others is likely to support the growth of the market. Numerous companies are focusing on investing heavily in this application to cater the end user requirements effectively. The report provides comprehensive analysis of the market based on drivers, restraints, opportunities, trends, competition, and industry-authenticated data. The market is estimated from 2016 to 2020 with forecast from 2021 to 2028.

The increasing safety concern from consumers is anticipated to augment the AR HUD market growth during the forecast period. AR graphics are overlaid onto real world objects in such a way that the driver can immediately recognize the threat and quickly take appropriate action, such as braking for a road obstacle. Presenting ADAS alerts in this manner could significantly increase driver situational awareness, especially when driving at night or in low visibility conditions are factors driving the market.

The increase need for connected vehicles is expected to support the growth of the AR HUD market in the years to come. The connected vehicle comes with safety features that offer superior convenience, comfort, and entertainment available in passenger cars. The traffic congestions have resulted in increase in the time spent inside a car and has increased the demand for in-car infotainment and connected features. The augmented reality HUDs are an essential part of connected vehicles. The connected car include infotainment units that offer audio and visual entertainment to the consumers and also enhances the driving experience by offering convenience and safety features.

The major factor that may hamper the growth of the AR HUD market is the complexity in designing them. This is because the processing and displaying of graphics based on the vehicle’s sensor data, commonly referred to as sensor fusion is very complex. Integrating real-time vehicle sensor data and the HUD HMI software to accurately overlay symbols on a rapidly changing environment presents a significant design challenge.
