The global virtual mirror industry is projected to hit USD 14.16 billion in 2024 at a pace of 25.4%. It is further forecasted to grow to USD 86.59 billion by 2032 during the forecast period.

Current Scenario of the Global Virtual Mirror Market 

The virtual mirror market growth is projected to emphasize factors such as ease of testing clothing in a virtual business environment, increased hygiene for cosmetic products and other retail products, and virtual product testing in the e-commerce platform before purchasing. In addition, the introduction of multi-sensor body scanners has revolutionized the shopping experience with online platforms. The growth of e-commerce is expected to provide virtual mirror solution providers with great potential to grow.

In the automotive industry, a digital exterior mirror is commonly used since it provides a practical view of the wide-angle camera and the LCD in the vehicle. Their adoption and deployment are projected to be further increased, reassuring the industry about its benefits. The use of an external digital mirror in cars helps automakers reach seasoned buyers while at the same time raising vehicle costs. The use of interactive mirrors with LCD screens in the hotel sector is becoming more common because they integrate text on the monitor and video content to engage and entertain customers in the hospitality sector, providing a practical solution for customer engagement.

MARKET DRIVERS

Digital mirror manufacturers offer a wide range of products to retailers in brick & mortar shops and e-commerce sites. The market is mainly comprised of start-up firms investing in technology for increasing reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) and for artificial intelligence (AI). These start-ups have received substantial financial support, instilling confidence in the market's stability and potential for growth. To develop and market their products, companies offering cost-efficient and creative digital mirror solutions have been bolstered by this support. As mentioned, automotive providers joined the virtual space with solutions like a digital side/outside mirror and a virtual windscreen.

Customers can check clothes and accessories, share photos, and compare different objects digitally via a photo scope or body 3D using kiosks and web portals with AR, VR, AI, facial recognition, and 3D body scanning technology. The better use of a virtual mirror is mainly attributable to the need to determine customer preferences and test clothes without wearing clothes. Hardware components, including cameras, sensors, and display systems, are integral to a virtual mirror in a brick-and-mortar shop fitting room.
