Market Overview:
The global Germanium IR Camera market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for Germanium IR Cameras from various end-use industries such as military & defense, industrial, commercial, medical and others. Additionally, factors such as technological advancements and rising demand for miniaturized cameras are also contributing to the growth of this market. However, high cost associated with these cameras is restraining their adoption in certain applications segments which is likely to hamper the overall growth of this market during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
A Germanium IR Camera is an instrument that uses infrared radiation to create images of objects. These cameras are used for a variety of purposes, including security, manufacturing, and research.
Short-wavelength IR:
Short-wavelength infrared (SWIR) imaging is a technique that allows the imaging of objects in the near-infrared spectrum. The normal visible light has wavelengths between 400 nm to 700 nm, while IR radiation extends from 10 mm to 1mm. SWIR cameras can be used for security surveillance, food quality inspection, and research applications among others.
Medium-wavelength IR:
The medium-wavelength infrared (MWIR) camera is used to detect objects in the mid-infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum. The detection range of MWIR varies between 8 to 12 mm for commercial applications and 3,700 nm to 1,800 nm for military/security applications.
The technology has been around for more than two decades but was commercially available only recently due to significant improvements in miniaturization and cost reduction.
Application Insights:
The military and defense application segment held the largest market share of over 40% in 2017. Germanium IR cameras are widely used in military and defense applications as they offer high performance, reliability, durability and a compact design at an affordable price. The growing adoption of drones across all major economies has led to an increased demand for long-range surveillance systems which is expected to drive the product demand over the forecast period.
The industrial application segment accounted for a significant revenue share in 2017 owing to rising product adoption across various industries including oil & gas, power generation and transportation among others. Germanium IR cameras offer superior performance compared to conventional infrared imaging devices due to their advanced technology that provides enhanced image clarity under low light conditions along with enhanced detection capabilities against other infrared sources such as heat sources or background noise resulting in improved overall system efficiency leading towards cost reduction benefits for end-users.
Regional Analysis:
Europe accounted for the largest market share in 2017 owing to the presence of major Germanium manufacturers such as InfraScan, Optris, and L3 Technologies. The region is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period due to increasing demand from military and defense application. North America is projected to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period owing to growing adoption by commercial sector including hotels, restaurants, malls among others. Rising number of shopping centers in U.S., Canada has been fueling regional growth since 2015 when it was estimated at USD X billion which increased significantly reaching USD X billion by 2018 from U.S.-based mall owners Glimcher Company Inc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for Germanium IR Camera in security and surveillance applications
- Growing demand for Germanium IR Camera from the automotive sector
- Rising adoption of Germanium IR Cameras in medical and healthcare applications
- Increasing use of Germanium IR Cameras in industrial and manufacturing sectors
- Proliferation of advanced infrared technologies
