In recent years, virtual and augmented reality have become top priorities for technology firms such as Facebook (which acquired VR headset maker Oculus), Google, and Apple. VR/AR involves using a visor or display to project new imagery on top of what someone would see with his or her naked eyes.
VR/AR has many applications in a field such as gaming and advertising. Markets and Markets has estimated that the VR market alone could be worth $33.9 billion by 2022, up from just over $1 billion in 2015. Engineers with hardware and software expertise will be in high demand to create the next generation of VR/AR devices for consumers and businesses.
There are many such exciting opportunities available for today’s engineering students. UCR offers a convenient and flexible online degree program in engineering, with specializations available in mechanical, environmental, and electrical engineering, as well as data science, materials at nanoscale, and bioengineering.
