中国虚拟现实产业步入发展快车道
China is accelerating the development of the virtual reality industry.
截至2024年底，中国虚拟现实 (VR) 领域企业数量已突破1万家。这一数据在南昌举行的世界VR产业大会闭幕式上正式发布。南昌作为华东江西省的省会城市，已成为该会议永久会址。
工业和信息化部总工程师谢少锋指出，近年来中国已构建起具备自主发展能力的VR产业体系，形成了多元化、融合化的应用生态，并建立起相对完善的产业发展环境。
据介绍，我国在基础前沿技术、行业标准制定、VR与前沿技术融合等领域取得实质性进展，印证了中国在高科技领域坚持可持续发展、强化技术自主性的发展路径。
值得关注的是，中国已构建起VR产业标准体系框架。近年来牵头制定了虚拟数字人、VR终端设备等关键领域的30余项国家标准，并推动近10项国际标准立项。这些标准不仅助推行业规范化发展，更为产业链上下游企业提供了统一的技术指引，有效引导创新方向。
在江西省政府支持下，南昌已成功承办六届世界VR产业大会。这一论坛汇聚了行业领军企业、政府代表、学术界和产业界人士，为探讨行业趋势、分享实践经验、展示创新技术提供了重要平台。
中国VR产业的发展不仅体现在投资规模与企业数量的增长，更展现出构建成熟技术生态的系统性布局。通过政府积极引导、标准体系建设和全球产业协作，中国正致力于在全球VR产业中占据引领地位，将虚拟构想转化为切实的经济增长点。
By the end of 2024, China had over 10,000 companies operating in the virtual reality (VR) sector. This was announced at the World Conference on VR Industry (WCVRI), which concluded in Nanchang, the administrative center of Jiangxi Province in eastern China.
Xie Shaofeng, Chief Engineer of China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, noted that in recent years, China has built a self-sufficient industrial system in the VR sector. A diversified and integrated application ecosystem has been established, along with a relatively comprehensive environment for the industry’s development.
According to Xie, significant progress has been made in core breakthrough technologies, the development of industry standards, and the integration of VR with other advanced technologies. This underscores China’s commitment to the sustainable development of its high-tech sector and the strengthening of its technological sovereignty.
One of China’s notable achievements is the establishment of a regulatory framework for virtual reality development. Over the past few years, the country has developed more than 30 national standards and initiated nearly 10 international standards in key areas, ranging from virtual digital avatars to VR terminal equipment.
These standards not only promote industry standardization but also guide innovative development by providing unified technical benchmarks for manufacturers, developers, and investors.
Nanchang has become the permanent host city for the WCVRI, with six conference sessions already held under the auspices of the Jiangxi provincial government. The forum brings together key industry players, government representatives, academics, and businesses, offering opportunities to discuss trends, share experiences, and showcase new technological solutions in the field of virtual reality.
The development of virtual reality in China reflects not only substantial investments and a growing number of companies but also a systematic approach to creating a mature technological ecosystem. With active government support, standardization, and global cooperation, China aims to take a leading position in the global VR industry, transforming virtual ideas into tangible economic opportunities.
