3. NVIDIA (US), Roblox Corporation (US), Unity Technologies (US) and Meta Platforms Inc. (US) are leading players in Metaverse Market

The global metaverse market for automotive is projected to grow from USD 1.9 billion in 2022 to USD 16.5 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 31.4%. Factors such as increasing demand for smart manufacturing (using digital factories and virtual twins for manufacturing), virtual car design (to save costs in the design and testing phase), in-car AR/VR based infotainment systems, virtual showrooms (for providing immersive experiences to users), simulation & training along with virtual advertisement will increase demand for metaverse in the automotive industry.

Advancements in supplementary technologies like 5G, IoT, cloud and edge computing, blockchain, 3D modeling and real-time rendering, AI, and ML will lead to the rapid development of the metaverse market for automotive. These technologies enable the use of metaverse as a whole and are the foundation of building metaverse systems. Further, developments in AR/VR/MR technologies in the form of hardware and software will increase the demand for the metaverse market across industries, including the automotive industry. Companies have already started working on the development of AR/VR-based in-vehicle safety and infotainment systems. WayRay (Switzerland), for instance, was the first amongst its competitors to develop this technology to some extent. It showcased an AR-based display for driver safety on actual roads in March 2022.
