Market Overview:
The global optical sight market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for advanced and innovative optical sights across different applications, such as industrial, residential, military and others. Additionally, the growing adoption of thermal imaging technology in the global optical sight market is also contributing significantly to its growth. Some of the major players operating in this market are FLIR Systems Inc., L-3 Technologies Inc.
Product Definition:
An optical sight is a device that allows the user to see an object more clearly. This can be done by magnifying the image of the object or by providing a sighting mechanism that makes it easier to aim at the object.
Image Intensifier:
An image intensifier is a device that enhances the intensity of light by a multiple of 10 times. It's used in optical sights for rifles, pistols and other long-range weapons to assist in aiming. The longer the wavelength, the more intense the beam needs to be before it can be used as an image intensifier.
The Image Intensifiers market is expected to grow at a CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate) of 6% from 2016 - 2024.
Thermal Image:
Thermal image is a camera-based thermal imaging device that generates an image by detecting the heat given off from objects. It works on the principle of thermography and it's used for identifying, locating, and tracking targets. The optical sight market has been witnessing significant growth over the past few years owing to its increasing demand in military & defense applications as well as law enforcement agencies.
Application Insights:
The industrial application segment dominated the global market in 2017. The growth of this segment can be attributed to the increasing demand for high-precision tools and equipment, which require constant monitoring during manufacturing or maintenance processes. Furthermore, governments are promoting investments in key industries such as oil & gas and defense, which further drives the demand for OSS systems.
The military application segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to an increase in spending on defense by countries such as China and Russia. These countries are focusing on enhancing their armed forces¢â‚¬â„¢ capabilities with advanced optical sights that provide accurate aiming at a long range thereby supporting high-precision weapons systems used by these armies. Moreover, ongoing conflicts across regions including terrorism along with human rights violation cases have increased government expenditure on security resulting in increased spending on military applications of optical sights worldwide. This factor is anticipated to boost product demand from 2018 to 2030 globally.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in 2017 owing to the high demand for surveillance systems and growing adoption of technologies across various sectors. The region is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period due to increasing government spending on defense and homeland security, which drives optical sights sales. Moreover, presence of major players such as BAE Systems Inc.; Harris Corporation; General Dynamics Mission Systems, Inc.; Lockheed Martin Corporation; Optronics Technology Co., Ltd.; Raytheon Technologies Corporation; Thales Group; and Vaisala Inc., in this region will drive regional growth.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rising installations of surveillance equipment by governments at both domestic levels as well as international airports across countries such as India, China, Japan among others are expected drive regional demand for optical sights over the next eight years.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for firearms and shooting sports
- Growing popularity of tactical shooting and hunting
- Proliferation of small arms in developing countries
- Technological advancements in optical sights
- Rising demand from the military and law enforcement sectors
