Traditionally, HMDs were used only in defense to make tactical operations. Technological innovations in HMDs provide users an enhanced experience by offering a wide field of view, good-quality projected image, compatibility, and ease of use. Nowadays, HMDs are lightweight, smart, flexible, and easy to access, and have low latency. Technological advancements make HMDs suitable for consumer use. A large number of lightweight HMDs are available in the market, which results in their high penetration in various application areas, such as consumer; enterprise and industry; commercial; medical; engineering and design. Also, AR smart glass manufacturers are continuously working on reducing the weight of smart glasses to fulfill the demands of users, particularly from enterprise and industry which in turn provides opportunity for the market.

There is a strong lack of awareness about HMDs or VR headsets and smart glasses in the least developed or developing countries. People are not aware how HMDs can be used in various application areas, such as medical; industry and enterprise; consumer; and commercial. It is important to create awareness about the benefits of these products to observe acceptance among people or users. Hence, making people aware about the emergence of new technologies is one of the prime tasks of companies
