Evaluation of AR VR in Logistics and Supply Chain Market Ecosystem:
The global AR VR in logistics and supply chain market ecosystem was valued at US$ 78.5 Mn in 2018 and is expected to reach US$ XX Mn with a CAGR of 39% by 2023. Augmented reality’s ability to avoid the wastage of time and errors while searching the location in warehouses has been creating demand for AR VR in logistics and supply chain in recent years. Additionally, the ability of AR VR to save cost and time for training workers is increasing the use of AR in warehouses for wayfinding.
Moreover, virtual reality is used in warehouses for training workers on safety and emergency in a warehouse environment. This is increasing the demand for VR in warehouses. The German logistics provider DB Schenker, in collaboration with Fraunhofer IML, has announced the use of VR for employee training in order to improve order picking and packaging processes.
Head-mounted display dominated the product, parts & devices segment and was valued at US$ 45.63 Mn in 2018 and is expected to grow with a CAGR of XX% in the coming years. HMD is used for real-time object recognition, indoor navigation, and barcode reading, which provide seamless integration of information with the warehouse management system. At the same time, hand mounted devices also provide hands- free intuitive digital support to workers during their manual picking operations, which has been driving the demand for HMDs in recent years.
At the same time, companies such as Google, Recon, Vuzix, Kopin, and others are focusing on introducing smart glasses in order to improve the accuracy and efficiency of warehouse logistics operations. Owing to the benefits offered by smart glasses, logistics companies have increased the use of smart glasses in recent times. DHL increased its productivity by 15% in 2017 by using smart glasses in their operational processes, as smart glasses provide order picking instructions along with information regarding the location of items in warehouses.
