WIMI Hologram Cloud’s AI + AR is developing a 5G application ecosystem while Apple plans to launch MR / AR helmets to once again lead the industry
HONG KONG, Mar 31, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – MobiusTrend, the fintech market research organization, recently released a research report, “AI + AR from WIMI Hologram Cloud Develops 5G Application Ecosystem While Apple Plans to Bring MR / AR Helmets to Market Again “. Recently, TianFeng International (TFI) Security analyst Guo Mingqi published an analytical article in which he said that MR (Mixed Reality) and AR (Augmented Reality) are the next 10 year trend in the tech industry and forecast the blueprint from Apple MR / AR products. After the development of the next three product generations has been predicted by Apple, a new report will be published. It is predicted that in 2022 Apple will launch VR Head Mounted Display (HMD) and AR glasses around 2025 to shape and guide the future field of virtual reality. Guo Mingqi predicts that Apple’s MR / AR products will be divided into three phases, helmet-type products in 2022, glasses-type products in 2025, and contact lens-type products in 2030-2040. It is predicted that helmet-mounted products can offer AR and VR experiences, while glasses-based products and contact lens-based products are more likely to focus on AR services. It is worth noting that contact lens-type products will move people from the era of “visible computing” to the era of “invisible computing”. However, due to its size, it is unlikely to have independent processing power and storage capacity, and it is likely to rely on connection with iPhone or other devices. The Apple Mixed Reality helmet prototype is currently known to weigh 200-300 grams, but Apple is focused on a technical issue. If it can be solved, the final weight of the product will be reduced to 100-200 grams, which is much lighter than most current VR devices. The configuration will be equipped with Sony’s micro OLED display and multiple optical modules to ensure a see-through AR experience and an immersive experience that is vastly better than existing VR products. It will also feature more than a dozen hand-tracking cameras and advanced eye-tracking technology. There is also good news that Apple will position this device as a “wearable” device. Although it will not be fully “mobile” like the iPhone, it will have independent computing power and storage space, and as technology improves, the mobility of the product will continue to increase. In terms of price, Guo Mingqi predicts that due to its intricate design, the final price may be the same as the high-end iPhone, which will be around $ 1,000 in the US. In addition, Apple can greatly integrate this helmet with video applications (like Apple TV +, Apple Arcade, etc.) which will also significantly increase Apple’s sales. Some analysts predict that the release time of Apple glasses will coincide with the release time of Apple’s electric cars, which means these two products will be integrated to some extent. In the future, Apple glasses may become the default configuration for driving Apple cars. Guo Mingqi claims that Apple’s advantage lies in the definition of an innovative human-machine interface and ecological integration. Looking at Apple’s prospects in the MR / AR space positively, it is expected that Apple will accelerate environmental and industrial growth after introducing MR / AR hardware products. AR stands for Augmented Reality and has always been a hot word in the field of science and technology. It overlays digitally created content in the real world of the user. Augmented Reality technology is a new technology that integrates information from the real world and information from the virtual world “seamlessly”. It’s about overlaying the physical information (visual information, sound, taste, touch, etc.) that is difficult to experience in a given time and space in the real world by computers and other science and technology, and then the virtual information overlay the real world. This can be perceived by the human senses for a sensory experience that transcends reality. The real environment and the virtual objects are superimposed in real time on the same screen or room. Augmented Reality technology not only displays information from the real world, but also virtual information at the same time. The two types of information complement and overlap. In visual augmented reality, users can use the helmet-mounted display to combine the real world with computer graphics and then they can see the real world that surrounds them. Digi-Capital predicts that the global AR and VR market will reach $ 150 billion by 2020. Among them, the AR market size is $ 120 billion and the VR market size is $ 30 billion. Digi-Capital pointed out in the report that the reason the AR market is bigger than the VR market is because virtual reality technology offers a full, closed-loop experience that is great for gamers attractive but of little value to mass users. Digi-Capital believes that due to the nature of VR headsets, VR can only be used in a “controllable environment”, while AR can be used in any situation as the latter does not affect or hinder the user experience. In addition, the use of VR technology is largely limited to the console, PC games, 3D movies, and other sub-fields. However, the use of AR technology can be extended to areas such as advertising, the Internet, live video, business communications, and social media. As a holographic AR company listed on Nasdaq, Weibo and other institutions have strategically invested $ 61.58 million in WIMI, again attracting public attention. WIMI uses its strong technical skills and infrastructure to provide excellent products and services. In the meantime, it has won the offer for China Mobile and the second phase of the holographic remote interaction of the Media Cloud platform and redefines the communication method of China Mobile through “5G + holographic remote”. WIMI’s core business is holographic AR technology for software engineering, media manufacturing services, cloud and big data. WIMI Hologram Cloud was founded in 2015. The focus is on holographic cloud services, mainly in holographic AR HUDs for vehicles, LiDAR for holographic 3D pulses, holographic devices for head-mounted light fields, holographic semiconductors, holographic cloud software, holographic car navigation and other professional fields that use multiple connections of AR -Cover technology, including holographic vehicle-mounted AR technology, holographic pulse 3D LiDAR technology, holographic vision semiconductor technology, holographic software development, AR holographic advertising technology, AR holographic entertainment technology, ARSDK holographic payment, interactive communication, holographic, etc. It is a comprehensive provider of technical solutions for the holographic cloud. AI-MBTWIMI by WIMI, a powerful WIMI holographic cloud management platform developed by the company, is mainly used to provide three service systems to companies, groups, organizations or individuals: AR3D application and holographic entertainment, AR3D application and AR3D holographic advertising Application & Holographic Technology Services. Depending on the application scenario, the cloud platform is divided into To B (for companies) and To C (for customers). There are some differences in functionality and feature support. To B mainly provides holographic virtual content and technical support for advertising, cinema, home improvement, catering, entertainment and other businesses. To C mainly offers the WIMI-Cloud-AI-MBTNSDK holographic and its plug-ins for mobile photography and APP applications to provide various value-added personal services. In the future, it can also be used in AR, Virtual Reality, Smart Glasses and DLP (Digital Optical Processing) that are poured onto the retina. It also has SDK plug-ins and a smart billing system. If the bandwidth requirements for the 5G holographic communication network change, the market for 5G holographic applications will explode. High-end applications such as holographic interactive entertainment and holographic conferencing are gradually becoming popular in holographic social, holographic communication, holographic navigation, and home holographic applications. WIMI Hologram Cloud plans to use AI holographic face recognition technology and AI holographic face alteration technology as core technologies. In addition, several technologically innovative systems are used to support holographic cloud platform services and holographic 5G communication applications. With the rapid development of the Internet, the AR smart wearable industry has entered a new era. Given the fundamentally clear construction plan for the 5G infrastructure, it is assumed that the AR headset industry will also initiate the phenomenon that the strong will become stronger and the weak weaker in the face of tough competition. As AR headset products expand and the system continues to improve, AR technology will reshape traditional industries. In the future, both the content and the hardware of the AR industry are likely to be the dominant business model and spawn new product forms.
