Sensor opportunity
 Evolving growth of sensor usage
  on HMDs – Increasing use of
  sensors to capture context
   • AR – Initially just IMUs, a basic
     camera, and a microphone,
   • Now seeing multiple IMUs, cameras,
     and microphones, along with other
     additions
   • VR – Different set of priorities, still a
     limited use of IMUs, but growing use
     of cameras, especially for inside-out
     position tracking

Essential Advice
 Offer buyers end-to-end solutions with precisely targeted projects that
  drive discernable benefits that don’t overpromise and underdeliver.
 Driving AR into more enterprise companies will require platforms for
  managing AR and developing compelling content – focus on your
  ecosystems
 AR vendors must accommodate an IT organization’s eventual move
  from mobile AR to headset-based solutions. For VR, most organizations
  will not understand the complexities of deploying VR; partners will be
  critical.
 The opportunity is now, evaluate partners on ability to execute now, in
  addition to a vision for the future.
 For VR, technology will drive platforms, but use cases must be
  demonstrated and ROI established for enterprise opportunities.
