Automotive Night Vision System Market Report 2025

The automotive night vision system market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3.84 billion in 2024 to $4.3 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.1%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to safety regulations and standards, consumer awareness and demand for safety, rising incidence of nighttime accidents, luxury vehicle segment demand, increased traffic and urbanization.

The automotive night vision system market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6.76 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to global urbanization trends, growing military technology transfer, growing concerns about pedestrian safety, expansion into non-luxury vehicle segments, integration with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). Major trends in the forecast period include integration with autonomous vehicles, advancements in image processing algorithms, compact and cost-effective solutions, regulatory support for advanced safety systems, consumer demand for enhanced safety features.

The increasing demand for advanced in-vehicle safety is anticipated to drive the growth of the automotive night vision system market. Advanced in-vehicle safety encompasses innovative technologies and systems aimed at enhancing the safety of both passengers and drivers. This demand is fueled by heightened safety concerns, regulatory mandates, and consumer preferences. As consumers become more aware of the advantages of advanced safety features, such as automotive night vision systems (ANVS), interest grows. For example, in April 2024, the Government Accountability Office, a U.S. government agency, reported that nearly 42,800 individuals lost their lives in motor vehicle crashes in the United States in 2022, with millions more injured. To enhance road safety, various advanced vehicle technologies have been developed to help prevent accidents and assist drivers. Notable innovations include automatic emergency braking, lane departure warning systems, and blind spot intervention features. Consequently, the rising demand for advanced in-vehicle safety solutions is propelling the growth of the automotive night vision system market.

The rise in road accidents is anticipated to drive the growth of the automotive night vision system market in the coming years. Road accidents continue to be a major global concern, leading to a heightened focus on incorporating advanced safety features in vehicles. Automotive night vision systems, which utilize infrared technology to improve visibility in low-light conditions, are essential for preventing accidents, particularly during nighttime driving. For example, in 2023, the Transport Accident Commission, an Australian government agency, reported that 295 people lost their lives on Victorian roads, reflecting a 22.4% increase (54 additional fatalities) compared to 2022. Moreover, there were 261 fatal crashes, an increase of 22 (9%) from the 239 recorded the previous year. As a result, the growing number of road accidents is fueling the demand for automotive night vision systems throughout the forecast period.

In the automotive night vision system market, technological advancements stand out as a prominent trend. Key industry players are actively involved in developing innovative technologies to strengthen their market position. A notable example is Kyocera Corporation, a Japan-based electronics company, which, in November 2022, introduced an automotive night vision system featuring a single GaN laser device integrating white and near-infrared light diodes. This groundbreaking development enables precise identification of collision-risk objects in challenging driving conditions, such as low visibility during nighttime, rain, snow, fog, or smoke. Kyocera's system, leveraging RGB-NIR sensors and proprietary 'Image-Fusion AI Recognition Technology,' demonstrates a significant leap in object recognition precision compared to existing technologies.

Leading companies in the automotive night vision system market are concentrating on developing advanced infrared technology solutions, such as the Digital Vision System-Mirrors, to enhance nighttime visibility and minimize accidents. These Digital Vision System mirrors improve driver awareness by providing high-definition visuals and essential information in low-light conditions. For example, in June 2024, Peterbilt Motors, a US-based manufacturing company, introduced the Digital Vision System-Mirrors. The DVS-M system employs three High Dynamic Range (HDR) cameras with hydrophobic lenses for optimal visibility in adverse weather conditions. It is controlled via a joystick and displayed on two high-definition monitors designed to reduce visibility disruption. These monitors offer three viewing layouts and include features such as automatic trailer tracking and infrared night vision. Additionally, the DVS-M enhances driver safety by decreasing blind spots and glare, while achieving fuel savings of up to 1.5% and incorporating automatic camera defrost functionality in low temperatures.

In June 2023, Magna International, a Canadian manufacturing company, acquired Veoneer US Safety Systems LLC for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition positions Magna International as one of the few suppliers capable of managing the increasing complexities of advanced software, systems, and integration by providing a comprehensive range of solutions to its customers. Veoneer US Safety Systems LLC, a US-based company, specializes in improving vehicle safety through innovative technologies, including automotive night vision systems.

An Automotive Night Vision System (ANVS) is a technology designed to enhance a vehicle's visibility and safety during low-light or night-time driving situations, utilizing a thermographic camera and sensor system to overcome visual obstructions caused by darkness, smoke, or fog. These systems often integrate collision avoidance features and audio or visual alerts, aiding in identifying pedestrians, animals, and potential hazards that may not be easily visible to the driver.

The primary components of an automotive night vision system include a night vision camera, sensors, a display unit, a controlling unit, and additional supplementary elements. The night vision camera functions by capturing images in low-light conditions, predominantly at night, using infrared light to illuminate the scene and provide visibility to the camera. It operates through the utilization of far-infrared (FIR) and near-infrared (NIR) technologies, and its output can be integrated into various vehicle systems such as the instrument cluster, navigation system, and head-up display (HUD). These ANVS technologies are employed by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and in the aftermarket sector.
