Over the past two decades, there have been big strides in the technological development of XR products. In the early '90s, a number of headsets were released that allowed the user to view a video on a headset from an external device. Then in the next decade, devices such as the Google Glass Explorer were released. These captured the imagination of many people, and it was one of the first "augmented reality" products available to consumers. Although this did not take off, it paved the way for other products to be developed. Later in the decade, more VR and AR products were released; for example, in 2019, Magic Leap released its first product after years of funding. Oculus also released a VR headset that does not need to be connected to a computer – the Quest – proving that VR does not need to be tethered to a computer. IDTechEx has created a market research report which combines deep industry knowledge and insights to provide you with the information to understand this complex market.
