Inertial Systems Market Analysis
The inertial systems market is expected to register a CAGR of 9% over the forecast period (2021 - 2026). The rapid advancement of global lifestyle has resulted in the need for equipment that can be used with greater ease of use. Use of motion-sensing technology can help achieve this, which extensively uses inertial sensors. Inertial sensor technology has become a key driving factor in this market. There has been a paradigm shift in the inertial systems manufacturing techniques after the turn of the century.
- The emergence of Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology resulted in miniaturization of mechanical and electro-mechanical elements in the field of sensors and semiconductors through the use of micro-fabrication and micro-machining techniques. Hence, MEMS have now become an indisputable part of the future navigation systems and thus increasing the inertial systems market growth.
- Additionally, high-end inertial systems are comprised of IMU's with high-performance sensors (gyroscopes, magnetometers, accelerometers), which provide high accuracy information about the surrounding environment through relative movement. Hence, the need for higher accuracy in the navigation systems is increasing, thus increasing the demand for advanced inertial systems.
- However, the large scale adoption of inertial systems was significantly constrained by large size and exorbitant costs. Also, the integration drift error in the navigation system is expected to pose challenges in the growth of inertial systems market.
Inertial Systems Market Trends
This section covers the major market trends shaping the Inertial Systems Market according to our research experts:
Defense Industry to Hold the Majority Share
- The defense industry holds the maximum share of the market in terms of applications like Missile Guidance, Control and Targeting, Precision Guided Munitions, Tank Turret Stabilization, and Torpedo Guidance. The defense sector also incorporates small-diameter missiles, underwater navigators, and unmanned underwater vehicles that are increasing the demand of the high-end MEMS sensors in military and defense applications.
- The increasing modernization of weaponry with the advent of smart weapons and advanced tanks is also a key driver for the market. The amount of money spent on defense R&D is much more than that for civilian applications, hence is enabling rapid growth in this segment.
- Further, the increasing defense spending across various countries, coupled with government initiatives to establish a cutting-edge defense weapon platform by acquiring latest technologies, such as precision striking, defense electronics, and critical infrastructure protection, is also expected to drive the market significantly.
- For instance, in 2017, the US Navy created its dedicated underwater drone unit, Unmanned Undersea Vehicle Squadron One, or UUVRON 1, splitting it off from a secretive submarine unit in the process. To support its activities, the United States allocates the maximum budget for the defense sector. In 2018, the US defense spending was around USD 700 billion.
North America to Account for the Maximum Share
- North America accounted for the maximum share in the market, with the United States contributing the most significantly. The primary demand for inertial systems in the region comes from the maritime sector, owing to the renewed emphasis on oil exploration activities. The exploration activities of oil rigs require high-performance gyroscopes, IMUs, and accelerometers to provide a right self-contained sensing system and highly accurate solutions for platform stabilization.
- Moreover, the rising number of unmanned aerial vehicles along with rising defense spending are the key reasons for the high adoption of these systems in the United States. Besides, under the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) program, in order to provide the US Navy with advanced new tools to expand the reach and effectiveness of its underwater sensors, the US defense sector invested in the development of small unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) to help US submarines detect and engage adversary submarines. Hence, government initiatives and spending on R&D is expected to stimulate the growth of the market in the region further.
Inertial Systems Industry Overview
The competitive landscape of the global inertial systems market is fragmented due to the presence of various inertial systems solution provider. However, the vendors are consistently focusing on product development to enhance their visibility and global presence. The companies are also undergoing strategic partnerships and acquisitions to gain market traction and increase the market share.
- June 2019 -Sensor manufacturer ACEINNA has launched its new open-source Inertial Measurement Unit Sensor that is meant for autonomous off-road, construction, agricultural vehicle applications.OpenIMU300RI it will help determining the direction in a GPS system and track motion on consumer electronics.
