Strategic Partnering and New Product Development to Propel Growth

This research service focuses on the US commercial unmanned aerial system (UAS) market. The base year for spending information is 2020, and example market participants and market size estimates for 2021 are provided. This study discusses market participants, customers, and government agencies that influence the industry.

The various UAS platform types are outlined by their design and use segment. Also included are insights on the software and services essential to the US UAS market. In addition, market applications, growth opportunities, industry participants, technology trends, and market drivers and restraints are discussed.

The COVID-19 pandemic response has highlighted many applications for commercial UAS. These use cases have helped the general public and the media to become more aware of the many benefits that leveraging UAS technology can bring to the commercial market. In particular, business-to-business applications and UAS delivery advantages have become well known.

The increasingly favorable view of UAS and the technological advances in data processing software and artificial intelligence (AI) that are beginning to allow the use of autonomous drone solutions remain the biggest drivers for growth in the US market. Moreover, the easing of requirements for flying UAS at night by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has also contributed to growth in the sector.

This research service analyzes current trends and future concepts that shed light on estimated spending, technology trends, and the fastest application areas of market growth. The goal of the study is to help firms identify growth opportunities and formulate go-to-market strategies that can improve market share. The research presented in the study was obtained from secondary and primary sources and combines quantitative and qualitative information.

Information has been garnered from existing reports and project material within the publisher's database, including data from technical papers, specialized magazines, seminars, and internet research. Senior consultants/industry analysts have conducted telephone interviews with original equipment suppliers, services providers, distributors, customers, and government authorities. Primary research accounts for approximately 25% of the total research.
