Extended reality will enable us to share experiences • The next frontier for social • Feels like human teleportation • A third offline-online state
VR will not reach critical mass before at least five years Source: Virtual Reality Isn’t Ready For Marketing Yet Forrester report
Digital platforms bet big on AR, led by Apple • “Augmented reality is profound. I am so excited about it; I just want to yell out and scream.” Tim Cook, CEO at Apple • Significant AR-related acquisitions by Apple over the past few years: Emotient, Faceshift, Flyby Media, Metaio, Perceptio, SensoMotoric Instruments, and, more recently, Vrvana • ARKit will soon be available to more than 400 million Apple users. Apple’s ARKit for iOS11 requires at least an iPhone 6S, iPhone SE, 2017 iPad, or iPad Pro.
Add extended reality to your strategic toolkit • Understand the appetite of your most valuable customers. • Identify where it adds value in your customers’ journeys. • Integrate extended reality in your broader strategy.
Determine your VR opportunity among three experience dimensions • Aspirational brand • Complex path to purchase • Highly experiential and digital offerings
Key takeaways • Extended reality will transform experiences, but AR will scale faster than VR. • Think strategically on how to add value with AR and VR. • Use interaction design, and measure emotions throughout the customer life cycle.
