Light detection and ranging (LIDAR), is a dynamically emerging technology, which helps to capture high definition 3D data of geospatial surfaces. At present, North America dominates the market in terms of spending on LiDAR solutions, followed by Europe. Increasing demand from end-users and innovations in the laser technology are projected to accelerate the market growth. These systems are most widely used in areas of defence & aerospace, civil engineering, archaeology, forestry and agriculture, mining, and transportation. Flood mapping and power line deployments are major applications of LIDAR systems in Civil engineering and forestry sectors.
The changing demands and preferences of urban population are unveiling newer LIDAR applications apart from conventional military applications. Automobile and Internet of things (IoT) would emerge as lucrative areas for investments. Driverless cars are the strategically addressed application by some of the tech-leaders, which are based on LiDAR technology. With the launch of Google cars, Apple initiated its project of developing automated cars. Such projects are expected to generate additional demand for LiDAR devices after their commercial success. Another important application that may drive the LiDAR market is smart appliances in smart homes or offices. The smart appliances based on robotics depend on LiDAR technology for their operation.
Companies need to address the rapidly changing technological needs to excel in the market. Collaborations or acquisitions are key strategies for growth of the market in the long run, as the in-house capacity building would be difficult for some of the players that are novice in the market. In addition, prominent players are introducing efficient LiDAR systems in order to target emerging markets of Asia-Pacific and LAMEA region. This is anticipated to create huge growth opportunities for leading players operating in the market.
2. Introduction of light detection and ranging (LiDAR) systems has enabled the examination, detection, and
mapping of objects easier than conventional methods. These systems are used over conventional surveying
methods because of their ability to provide highly accurate data and 3D images in a shorter time. Improved
automated processing ability of LiDAR systems in terms of image resolution and data processing capabilities
over other technologies are the major factors that drive the global market. Other factors that supplement
the growth of the LiDAR market as a whole include rising demand of 3D imaging technology across various
application areas and the increasing adoption of aerial LiDAR systems to explore and detect places and
obtain historic details. On the other hand, low awareness about the benefits of LiDAR systems and the use of
expensive components in these systems namely, laser scanner, navigation system, and high-resolution 3D
cameras collectively increase the cost of LiDAR systems. These factors cause less adoption of LiDAR
technology and restrict the growth of this market.
Players in the market adopt product launch and collaborations as their key strategies to meet the customer
demands and increase their customer base. Partnerships are likely to help the players set a common
technology platform and share the technological requirement. This would ultimately help the market players
to enhance their product portfolio with less investment and increase their market share across various
regions. The cost cutting in operations is expected to lead the manufacturers to invest into advertisement
activities and increase the awareness about the LiDAR systems across diverse industry verticals and
geographic regions. In October 2014, Phoenix Aerial Systems collaborated with Pulse Aerospace to launch a
single-rotor unmanned aerial system for Ranger LiDAR systemThe Vapor 55. Eventually, the rise in the use of
LiDAR systems across various industries is likely to supplement the growth of the world LiDAR market.
