Fortune Business Insights™ displays this information in a report titled, "Infrared Imaging Market, 2023-2030."
COVID-19 Favored Market Growth Due to Rising Use of Infrared Thermography Scanners in Healthcare
The global supply chains of several industries was disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic, thereby causing a major decline in the availability and delivery of infrared thermographic equipment. While various industry witnessed a decrease in their revenue growth, the healthcare industry recorded a notable increase in its revenue due to the robust demand for infrared imaging technologies. Infrared cameras were widely used during this period to screen and monitor temperatures at public spaces and hospitals.
Segments:
Uncooled Infrared Imaging Systems to Gain Momentum in Demand with Growing Need for Affordable, Compact IR Imaging
Based on technology, the market is divided into cooled infrared imaging and uncooled infrared imaging. The uncooled infrared imaging segment has captured the largest infrared imaging market share due to the rising demand for affordable and compact infrared imaging systems from various sectors.
Growing Demand for Reliable Surveillance & Homeland Security Solutions to Boost Demand for LWIR
By wavelength, the market is bifurcated into near-infrared, Short-Wave Infrared (SWIR), Mid-Wave Infrared (MWIR), and Long-Wave Infrared (LWIR). The LWIR segment will hold a dominant market share as instruments of this wavelength are mainly used in object detection, surveillance, homeland security, and several other scientific & industrial applications.
IR Imaging to Find Use in Security & Surveillance Applications Due to Its High Demand from Government Agencies
Based on application, the market is bifurcated into security & surveillance, monitoring & inspection, and detection. The security & surveillance segment captured the biggest market share as government agencies and law enforcement authorities are increasing the demand for IR imaging systems to increase the safety of citizens and public property.
Aerospace & Defense Sector to Use IR Thermography to Conduct Non-Destructive Inspection of Aircraft Engines
By vertical, the market is segregated into aerospace & defense, automotive, healthcare, industrial, and others. The aerospace & defense segment dominated the market as IR thermography is being used by the aerospace & defense industry for non-destructive testing and inspection of aircraft engines and equipment. These activities are being done to enhance the crew’s safety and avoid technical problems and breakdowns.
With respect to region, the market covers North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World.
