LONDON, May 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Between 2008 and 2015, augmented reality (AR) was a technology gimmick looking for a market. Innovators struggled with technical limitations, hype for smart
glasses, and weak use cases. Starting in mid-2015, the market began a period of recalibration.

Where it was once imagined that mobile AR, using smartphones and tablets, would be the strict purview of consumer use cases, the slow development of smart
glasses married with the practicality and the ubiquity of mobile devices has opened legitimate, sustainable markets for enterprise use cases as well. As we move through 2017, AR will start to become an increasingly embedded mobile capability through software development kits (SDKs) and other platformization strategies, and AR will live within social media platforms, e-commerce apps, maps, and business applications. Mobile AR capabilities will increasingly be made available in "point and click" means to non-developers. Mobile AR will power one of the next great user interface applications – visual search – and will, therefore, play a central role in determining the future success of internet giants.
