Market Overview:
The global LWIR area cameras market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for cooled LWIR area cameras and uncooled LWIR area cameras across different applications such as aerospace, electronics & communication, food & beverage, military & defense, and others.
Product Definition:
LWIR area cameras are thermal imaging cameras that use long-wave infrared radiation to create images of objects in the environment. These cameras can be used for a variety of purposes, such as security, surveillance, and search and rescue. They are important because they allow users to see in low-light or no-light conditions, making them ideal for use in dark or hazardous environments.
Cooled LWIR Area Cameras:
Cooled LWIR area cameras are low-light imaging devices that work on the similar principle as that of thermal imaging, but at a much lower temperature. These cameras use special filters to reduce the light intensity to an extent where it is manageable for human eyes and provide clarity even in poor lighting conditions. The technology has been around for quite some time now; however, its adoption has been limited due to high cost and complexity associated with cooling systems.
Uncooled LWIR Area Cameras:
Uncooled long-wave infrared area cameras are used to provide high-resolution thermal images. These cameras have a wide viewing angle and can be mounted on ceilings, walls or other surfaces. Uncooled LWIR area camera is an ideal choice for surveillance applications where the ambient temperature is low and the target object or person is moving quickly.
Application Insights:
The aerospace application segment accounted for the largest share of over 30.0% in 2017 and is projected to grow at a significant rate during the forecast period. The growth can be attributed to increasing air traffic across various regions coupled with government initiatives encouraging adoption of these systems in aircraft. For instance, according to Airbus, civil aviation requires approximately 1,400 new aircraft per year but currently only around 900 are available for sale or order while waitinglisting remainder 300-400 units annually. This leads to increased demand for passenger travel which eventually encourages market growth over the forecast period.
Electronics & communication is another lucrative application segment owing to growing usage of area surveillance systems in smartphones and laptops by manufacturers as well as consumers globally since past few years without any major change in technology used thus driving demand from this industry also contributing significantly towards overall market size during the forecast period 2018-2030 ¢â‚¬Ëœ 2030).
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017. The growth of this region can be attributed to the presence of major aircraft manufacturers such as Boeing and Airbus, which are actively involved in R&D activities for developing advanced aircraft with better passenger comfort. In addition, increasing demand for air travel is expected to drive the regional product demand over the forecast period.
The Asia Pacific regional market is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rapid development in various sectors such as aerospace and defense industry, electronics manufacturing sector, food processing industry among others.
Europe accounted for a significant share in terms of revenue and volume consumed within global market space owing mainly high military spending by countries including Russia.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for thermal imaging in security and surveillance applications
- Growing demand for LWIR area cameras in the automotive sector
- Rising popularity of infrared thermography for predictive maintenance and quality control purposes
- Proliferation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and increasing demand for thermal imaging sensors in these platforms
- Development of new technologies that improve the performance of LWIR area cameras
