Big predictions for sensors in the global security and surveillance market
The Internet of Things
(IoT) is bringing about a new era of connectivity in the digital age,
connecting critical business sectors through a network of secure data
flow, analytics, and management.
IoT is also bringing numerous opportunities for sensor participants
through security technologies required for remote services and enhanced
accessibility of devices. The total sensors market in security and
surveillance applications was worth $6,267.9 million in 2016, with image
sensors holding the largest market share at 23 percent. The market is
expected to reach $12,012.1 million by 2023.
Who dominates the market
North America and EMEA dominate the market, driven by aging
infrastructures, but APAC is the fastest growing due to rapid
infrastructure development, strong economic growth, and favorable
government regulations.
Challenges for sensor manufacturers and suppliers include increased
competition, leading to pricing pressures, lack of product
differentiation, and lack of common global standards.
IoT growth
The growth of IoT is contributing to rapidly evolving security
requirements, with the areas of robotics and biometric and RFID sensors
offering the greatest opportunities. Robotics is expected to be the
future of security and surveillance, with considerable investments in
research and development in this space. In addition, the demand for drones and AGVs remains strong, especially in defense, commercial, and institutional spaces.
“In commercial and residential applications, biometric recognition
used in access control systems is also witnessing a gradual increase in
interest,” said Ram Ravi. “In addition, cloud networking, a
revolutionary two-way interactive service delivery platform, is expected
to create a technological explosion in the homes and buildings services
market, particularly in commercial and residential security
applications. This will enable homes and buildings participants to adopt
new business models to provide attractive cloud-based services through a
secured network.”
Big predictions
Three big predictions for sensors in the global security and surveillance market:
- Internet of Things (IoT) is paving the way for industry convergence and enabling machine-to-machine (M2M) communications for better business decisions.
- Development of new communication protocols will ensure interoperability and provide standardization, particularly in applications for perimeter security, intrusion detection, and access control systems
- Retail, healthcare, and finance are all expected to offer considerable growth opportunities for sensors in biometrics.
