An important element in the development of the Augmented Reality sector in Russia was the agreement signed on the sidelines of the Forum between the Moscow Region and one large Chinese company to launch the production of electronics, including AR glasses with a pre-installed domestic mobile operating system. The inclusion of this line of devices in the register of domestic radio-electronic products will expand the possibilities for the implementation of AR technologies in companies with state participation.
