Reduction in the price of Kinect sensors is the primary factor that propels growth in this market. The launch of new games that can be played with gesture recognition is another factor that will increase the demand for Kinect sensors. The availability of multifunctional gaming consoles that not only support games but also enable gamers to watch videos, listen to music, browse the Internet, and download videos will augment the prospects of growth in this market.
“Pico projectors are tiny, lightweight next-generation devices that are very portable compared to traditional projectors. In 2012, Samsung released the Galaxy Beam, and in 2014 it was upgraded to include a tiny projector. LG and Micromax also have smartphones with projectors, and we can expect many more smartphones in the future with pico projectors,” says Faisal Ghaus, Vice President of Technavio.
“These projectors can be placed in smartphones and tablets to beam videos and photos onto any surface. But in the near future, we can expect gaming consoles to be integrated with 3D cameras, pico projectors, and depth sensors to create amazing experiences for users.”
