3D AUDIO MARKET ANALYSIS

3d Audio MarketSize and Trends

Global 3D audio market is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period (2018–2026). The market growth is attributed to continuous advancements in audio technology across various applications in different end-use industries such as cinema, gaming, and VR concerts. Some of the characteristics of 3D audio include volume & attenuation (to give the listener an idea of the distance), panning & direction (to give the listener an idea of direction), and reverberation & acoustics, an idea of the surrounding environment. The 3D audio system manufacturers are continuously trying to make advancements in their products such as 3D sound one module along with the motion tracker in order to give a better quality sound to its customers.

Continuous advancements in audio technology is expected drive growth of the market

Advancements in audio technology such as shift from 2D audio to 3D audio is expected to aid in growth of the market. For instance, audio technology was in two dimension earlier i.e. direction above & below and front & rear equally; however, now 3-dimensional audio gives identical differences of distance (from what distance the sound is coming) and difference in direction such as the above/below/front/rear/left/right, which is a new technology for the users. This is being adopted globally for a real sound experience in different applications such as gaming, cinema, VR concerts, and automobile industry.

Continuous development in the music industry is expected to drive growth of the market

The music industry is continuously evolving with time and there is high availability of instruments and hardware according to the requirement of the user. Increasing demand for audio hardware devices such as headphones and loudspeakers for commercial and personal use is projected to drive the market growth during the forecast period.

Market - Trends

Two advancements in audio technology in terms of hardware include noise-cancellation and wireless connectivity in professional and consumer headphones and earphones. These technologies have evolved the way people listen to music or use audio devices to communicate.
