Market Growth Factors
Growing need for high-speed wireless communication and data transfer for high-bandwidth applications such as ultra-HD video streaming, real-time gaming, and virtual meetings is one of the factors fuelling the growth of the WiGig market. As per the industry reports, the next-gen wireless communication market will be $133.77 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 17.76% from 2024-2032. Emerging technologies such as 5G (in which it is expected that 80% of mobile data traffic will be carried), and the interoperability and ease of integration of WiGig with next generation wireless technologies is helping strengthen the roll out of WiGig.
WiGig is a key enabler of the digital transformation, with applications in fast file transfer, wireless docking, and device-to-device connectivity in enterprise environments. Enterprises using WiGig are able to transfer large files, use high video and audio quality applications, and present high-definition images and stereo sound over a low-latency link. Enterprise IT managers are concerned about reliable indoor cellular access, and WiGig technology is being applied to this situation. Its use in wireless docking products and for office networking solutions provides further reasons for vendors to embrace it.
Increased use of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) is expected to drive the WiGig market. For example, according to the research, 75% of Gen Z use VR and 53% of the Millennial generation use VR. 63% of Gen Z use AR, and 51% of the Millennial generation use AR. WiGig's high throughput makes it suitable for high-bandwidth applications that include streaming of high-definition video, augmented and virtual reality gaming and other services. In conjunction with an increase in consumer spending and demand for ultra-fast and video buffer-free internet access, WiGig is ideally suited for ultra HD streaming and smooth gaming experiences.
