What Are The Leading Drivers Of Growth In The Spatial Computing Market?
The growth of the spatial computing market is predicted to be boosted by the escalating adoption of remote work practices. These practices refer to the strategic methodologies that organizations implement to execute work efficiently outside a conventional office setting. They have gained prominence due to advancements in technology, worldwide connectivity, flexible working options, achieving work-life balance, the effects of the pandemic, and employee preferences. Spatial computing is employed to innovate remote work practices by enhancing collaboration experiences, boosting training and orientation procedures, establishing virtual workplaces, facilitating remote support, and crafting specialized productivity tools. The Office for National Statistics, a non-ministerial department based in the UK, reported in February 2023, that from April 27 to May 8, 2022, an estimated 38% of working adults revealed that they carried out their work remotely. Further, between January 25 to February 5, 2023, around 40% of employed adults claimed to have worked remotely at least once in the last week. Hence, the growth of the spatial computing market is being triggered by the increasing uptake of remote work practices.
