Market Trends of 3D Telepresence Industry
Enhanced User Experience is expected to Drive the Growth in software segment.
- The tele-immersion technology and 3D technology provide an increased presence for remote users, whether bundled with virtual or augmented reality (AR). Aside from enhancing the user experience in terms of communication, which is currently performed with 2D video conferencing, there is a potential use of this technology in several other areas that would reduce the need for travel.
- Moreover, applications, such as in remote collaboration, where multi-disciplinary teams have to work closely with 3D data or models, like in design, manufacturing, medicine, physical sciences, architecture, astronomy, digital humanities, and education, among various other applications, are expected to drive the demand for these solutions.
- Further, initiatives aimed at pushing the deployment of standard video conferencing to achieve real-world experience are driving the market growth. For instance, in the previous year, researchers from Facebook Reality Labs announced the development of a virtual telepresence system that utilizes photorealistic avatars to capture and convey the gaze and eye contact signals of social interactions in the real world.
- Statistical forecasts suggest that an organization could boost its productivity by up to 40% due to quick decision-making, saving travel costs and travel time because of the 3D telepresence systems.

Europe to have a Dominant Share in the Market
- Various research studies are conducted to ensure an immersive experience in 3D telepresence systems. For instance, researchers from the De Montfort University in Leicester, United Kingdom, are working on a project to develop new algorithms that could reduce lossy compression of point clouds whose usage is widely observed in 3D telepresence.
- Compared to traditional video technology, 3D point clouds offer various advantages, such as free-viewpoint rendering and a mix of natural and synthetic objects. The EU-funded OPT-PCC project is developing new data compression algorithms to optimize the image rate-distortion performance with efficient compression methods that could increase storage capability and improve bandwidth usage.
- The growing adoption of advanced technologies, such as AR and MR, is expected to pave the path for increased adoption of the 3D telepresence market.
- As part of its industrial development strategy, the United Kingdom government announced an investment of EURO 400 million (USD 433.28 million) the previous year to back cutting-edge R&D projects across the country, covering immersive technologies like AR, VR, and MR. Such investments are expected to increase opportunities for United Kingdom-based businesses to create new apps, tools, and virtual experiences.
- Mixed reality (MR) based startups regularly attract investors' funds for product innovations to seize market growth opportunities. For instance, Zapper announced raising investments for its MR device. The startup recently released the next version of its app.
- Similarly, the previous year, Hyper, a London-based startup, created an innovative Mixed Reality (MR) co-design platform that addresses the bottleneck. Hyper has introduced a spatial design platform that can successfully merge VR with physically accurate, motion-tracked models, owning to the EIT Digital-supported "HyperCRC" innovation activity.
- Moreover, Hyper provides a spatial design platform that combines VR with real-world motion-tracked models. The company offers a standard design package that allows customers to choose from 40 different materials and customize four objects within four immersive 3D environments. Furthermore, the technology enables the company's clients to collaborate and co-design remotely.
