Smartphones are witnessing impressive growth rates despite market saturation. There is a huge potential for smartphone sales in India, China, Indonesia, Brazil, and other emerging economies. Tablets and laptops also have a substantial share in the market due to the rising tech requirements of consumers. The consumers often opt for devices which are integrated with advanced technologies such as gesture recognition, thereby boosting the market growth.

Emergence of gestures as new medium of communication with machines

Innovative technologies in PCs is very attractive to the users, and gesture recognition is one of those technologies that has gained acceptance not only in PCs but also in mobile devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and portable PCs,” says Chetan.

When combined with augmented reality (AR), gesture recognition technology proves to be highly useful for graphic designers, artists, engineers, and other parties that are involved in designing. The combination of AR and gesture recognition not only facilitates better 3D visualization of designs but also eases the interaction between 3D computer designs and designers.
