Car Camera Cleaning Systems Market Report 2024

The car camera cleaning systems market size has grown exponentially in recent years. It will grow from $0.47 billion in 2023 to $0.57 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.3%. The historic growth can be attributed to the rise in autonomous and electric vehicles, an increase in consumer demand for premium and luxury cars, regulatory mandates aimed at enhancing road safety, higher demand for camera cleaning systems, and a surge in the adoption of ADAS systems in vehicles.

The car camera cleaning systems market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1.28 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 22.5%. The growth during the forecast period can be attributed to the rising demand for compact, modular, and multi-sensor cleaning solutions, the increasing willingness of vehicle owners to invest in automated car wash and cleaning, the rise in electric vehicle manufacturing, the growing production and sales of vehicles, and the expanding adoption of ADAS systems in vehicles. Major trends in this period include integration with advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), advancements in smart cleaning solutions, advancements in water jet systems, improvements in sensor technology, and enhancements in algorithms for detecting dirt.

The increasing adoption of autonomous and electric vehicles is expected to drive the growth of the car camera cleaning systems market. Autonomous vehicles, or driverless cars, are equipped with advanced systems and technologies that enable them to navigate and operate without human intervention, while electric vehicles are powered by electric motors using energy stored in batteries, rather than internal combustion engines that rely on fossil fuels. The growing awareness of climate change and the environmental impact of fossil fuels is driving the demand for cleaner transportation options. Car camera cleaning systems support autonomous and electric vehicles by ensuring that camera lenses remain clear of obstructions such as dirt, dust, water, and snow, which is essential for the accurate functioning of advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving technologies. For example, according to the International Energy Agency, a France-based intergovernmental organization, fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEVs) increased by 40% in 2022 compared to 2021, reaching over 72,000 vehicles globally. Additionally, according to a report published by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, a US-based non-profit organization, in December 2022, it was projected that there would be 3.5 million autonomous vehicles or self-driving cars on American roads by 2025. Therefore, the increasing adoption of autonomous and electric vehicles is driving the car camera cleaning systems market.

Major players operating in the car camera cleaning systems market are developing camera sensor cleaning innovations to enhance the functionality and reliability of ADAS and autonomous driving technologies. A camera sensor cleaning system is a set of tools and technologies used to remove dust, debris, and other contaminants from the surface of a camera’s image sensor. For instance, in September 2023, Hyundai, a South Korea-based automotive manufacturer, and Kia Corporation, a South Korean automobile manufacturer, launched the Rotator-Cam, a camera sensor cleaning system. It combines a rotating camera cover glass with a compact wiper to efficiently sweep away dust, mud, and water droplets. The system employs artificial intelligence to scan for contaminants and automatically clean the sensor when needed, ensuring optimal visibility and functionality for autonomous driving applications.

In August 2023, Vitesco Technologies Group AG, a Germany-based company providing advanced sensor cleaning systems, partnered with Cebi Group. This partnership aims to develop an advanced sensor cleaning system (ASCS). This integrated solution can clean over 10 environmental sensors, including cameras and lidars, using water pressure of up to 7 bars with a single infrastructure. Cebi Group is a Luxembourg-based automotive parts manufacturing company specializing in the production of pumps and washer systems for automotive vehicles.
