Globally, nearly 53% of the global population (more than 4 billion people) is connected to the internet, and nearly all of them (92.6%) go online using their mobile devices. Internet connectivity has presented an opportunity of hassle-free shopping - anytime, anywhere. The internet accessibility, mobile technology and digital innovations are changing consumer's shopping experiences. With the building customers' trust in buying high-value products including electronics on the Internet, the number of online shoppers is skyrocketing. Therefore, with the increased penetration of online shopping in consumers’ lives, the value of electronics e-commerce market is expected to only rise but not slowdown. The lack of an integrated end-to-end logistics platform for delivery of electronics purchased online is a key factor challenging the growth of this market. This is because supply is more important that demand, and in developing countries, there is a significant logistical barrier. For instance, in India, there are 6000 cities and 600,000 villages that account for nearly 70% of the country’s population. The retail e-commerce can deliver to only an estimated 200 cities in India which means for a major proportion of population these services are not available. The logistics performance differs significantly in each country. The differences include local logistics infrastructure, delivery choices, mode of delivery, and warehousing. These poise challenges for businesses keen to expand across borders. Additionally, catering services for same-day and next-day deliveries, along with managing change requests for time slots simultaneously, is another major ongoing logistical challenge for retailers. These factors are therefore hindering the growth of consumer electronics e-commerce market. Augmented reality (AR) technology enhances online shopping experience. AR technology is a solution for online shopper's 'uncertainty' about a product that they wish to purchase online.

AR helps online retailers significantly reduce returns by providing ‘try-before-you-buy’ digital experience. For example, Augment is an augmented reality tool that allows customers to view a product in real time. Augment helps customers to rotate and see products so that it can be visualizes in a natural setting. Also, customers can change the product colours and finishes.
