Summary

米国調査会社ABIリサーチの調査レポート「【分析レポート：アプリケーション】教育の拡張現実と仮想現実」は、幼稚園から大学や研究者などの自己学習者にわたる教育における拡張現実(AR)と仮想現実(VR)の役割を査定している。世界の多くの教育機関はすでに実証を開始し、ラーニングジャーニーや学習成果の改善に関する補助教材としての拡張現実や仮想現実の導入に成功している。拡張現実と仮想現実のソリューションは、教育者と学習者の双方に多大な利点をもたらし、注意力やモチベーション不足、知識の保持・継承といった今日の教育システムが直面している課題を軽減し、内容の可視化や対話性を通してより深い知識を提供することができる。

This report examines the role of Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) in Education, from kindergarten and self-learners through to university students and researchers. A considerable number of schools around the world have already begun experimenting and successfully introducing AR and VR as a supplemental learning material in a range of subjects to improve the learning journey and the learning outcome. AR and VR solutions provide numerous advantages both to educators and students and are able to alleviate many challenges that the education system is facing today, such as lack of attention/motivation and knowledge retention, as well as simply offering a much deeper level of understanding through content visualization and interaction.

With AR and VR tools, students have unique opportunities to explore historic destinations that can be difficult, expensive, or impossible to access, while remaining in the classroom.  In addition, AR and VR tools allow students to gain a deeper understanding of abstract or complex subjects and phenomena that is relatively difficult to understand only by text, pictures, and video. Educators can leverage mobile devices or select AR/VR headsets that are suitable for educational content and not necessarily require significant investment, both of them provide immersive and interactive content that capture the interest of students and allow them to practice their knowledge and get a better understanding. At the same time, high end, high immersion experiences and the supporting hardware are also available if budget and need is there.

This report represents a range of educational use cases and examines in detail all the advantages and potential barriers that AR and VR solutions will face in education. Cost is the primary challenge of AR/VR tools in most markets, and especially so in education. While ROI is a primary concern for enterprise use cases, ROI in education looks different in comparison which can make it more difficult to identify actual value. Raising education efficacy, retention, and engagement among learners can be measured quantitatively through grades and overall performance, but also qualitatively in morale and approach to work, which new AR/VR experiences can track. Also analyzed are upcoming trends in hardware and software deployment for educational proposes. This includes forecasts for value chain revenues per vertical and region, hardware shipments per vertical and per form factor and AR smart glass ASPS data for education. Relevant and interesting company profiles are also included, with software providers that develop educational content and hardware players with offerings suitable for educational apps.
