Global LiDAR Sensors Market Highlights Over 2022 - 2031
The global LiDAR sensors market is estimated to garner a substantial revenue by growing at a CAGR of ~12% over the forecast period, i.e., 2022 – 2031. The growth of the market can be attributed to the growing usage of LiDAR sensors in self-driving cars, and rising mechanization of agricultural machinery across the globe. Along with these, LiDAR is an active remote sensing technology that uses optical amplification on stimulated emission of electromagnetic radiation. Integration of this technology allows collection of more accurate and precise real time data, which in turn is also expected to drive significant growth to the market in the forthcoming years. Furthermore, increasing level of automation and digitalization around the world is projected to offer lucrative opportunities to the market in the near future. As of January 2021, 4.5 billion people around the world used internet actively, whereas more than 4 billion people were evaluated as active mobile internet users.
The market is segmented by application into vehicle automation, forest planning and management, surveillance technology, transport planning, cellular network planning, and others. Out of these, the vehicle automation segment is anticipated to hold the largest share in the global LiDAR sensors market. This can be accounted to the high applicability of LiDAR technology in autonomous and electric vehicles to provide functionalities such as 3D mapping and car surround sensors. Apart from this, growing demand for advanced driver assistance systems is also predicted to fuel the growth of the market segment in the future. Additionally, on the basis of technology, the solid state segment is assessed to acquire the largest share during the forecast period owing to the cost effectiveness, high reliability and simpler driving operations provided by LiDAR sensors equipped with this technology.
