On the other hand, the analog segment is expected to witness decline in the forthcoming years owing to the emergence of IP cameras, with a number of advantages.
- By Technology: The report further provides the segmentation of the market volume based on the technology: image signal processor, vision processor and vision processor + AI surveillance camera. The image signal processor held more than 70% of the share in the market. The market's expansion is aided by the rising sales of home security systems, integration of artificial intelligence systems in surveillance camera and adoption of IoT based surveillance systems. The vision processor + AI surveillance camera segment is projected to grow at the highest CAGR. Surveillance cameras manufacturers are shifting from basic image processing to AI processing, which is likely to help in the growth of the global vision processor (+AI) camera market. The importance of artificial intelligence (AI) technology, during the COVID-19 pandemic has increased considerably, which helped various sectors, particularly healthcare, in providing real-time monitoring solutions.
- By Region: The report provides insight into the surveillance camera market based on the regions namely Europe, North America, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World. Asia Pacific held the major share of above 40% in the market owing to the rising criminal activities and enhancing the security of the population in the country.
Within North America, the US held the dominant share. The US is one of the most surveilled countries in the world, with CCTV cameras installed in most public and private places. However, the retail and commercial end-user markets are estimated to have the largest number of cameras installed in the country. Whereas, in the Asia Pacific region, Japan and China held a significant share in the market as public safety agencies are heavily investing in emerging technologies for providing efficient safety solutions in Japan.
Market Dynamics:
- Growth Drivers: There is a rapid growth of surveillance cameras in recent years for the purpose of reducing and preventing criminal activities. Criminal cases are decreasing proportionately as more of the cameras came into existence. Surveillance cameras can also deter crime by increasing the probabilities of arrest and punishment. Alarm notification is the best way that the security cameras can function in prevention and reduction of crime Furthermore, the market has been growing over the past few years, due to factors such as rapid urbanization, rising number of ATMs, growth in traffic management, technological improvement and development in surveillance camera industry, and many other factors.
- Challenges: However, the market has been confronted with some challenges specifically, increase in privacy concern, high investment cost, etc.
- Trends: The market is projected to grow at a fast pace during the forecast period, due to various latest trends such as integration of artificial intelligence systems in surveillance camera, adoption of IoT based surveillance systems, emergence of video surveillance as a service (VSaaS), etc. IoT systems are deployed in sectors including automotive, transportation, smart homes, energy, utility, security, surveillance, public safety, financial services, retail, healthcare, industrial, warehousing, and distribution. The growing adoption of IoT based surveillance systems is providing an overall growth opportunity to the global surveillance camera market.
