Supplementary notes
The source indicates the following: "2022 to 2025 forecasted in line with 2000-2003 growth rate of smartphone users since AR is in the Toy-launched phase of adoption; if we look at where this transition took place with mobile phones, one can argue that this was when games like 'snake' started being available (e.g., 1997: Nokia 6110 device released, 1999: emojis were invented, 2000: Nokia 3310, and the first commercially available camera phone launched in Japan)."
