Advancing in the fast-paced era of clean mobility and electric vehicles, automotive HD/imaging radar market is expected to grow exponentially due to its demand in autonomous vehicles.
The global automotive HD/imaging radar market is predicted to exhibit astonishing growth, exhibiting a CAGR of 23.61% from 2023 to 2033.
Recent report revealed by FMI suggests that the market valuation is likely to hit US$ 10.1 billion in 2023 and US$ 84.11 billion by 2033.
Automotive HD radar is a crucial component of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). Its high precision for range and speed detection plays a critical role in vehicle safety. The sensors alert the driver to avoid any collision, pedestrian, vehicle, or others. The automotive industry has been consistently expanding, owing to improving per capita income levels, and digitalization.
The demand for safety features such as electronic stability control, traction control, lane departure warnings, collision avoidance systems, and others has astronomically risen in recent years. Automakers are innovating product offerings to launch vehicles that comply with government regulations for vehicle safety.
The automotive HD radar market is expanding due to its adoption of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems. The automotive imaging market is experiencing a demand upsurge due to the development of autonomous cars. Autonomous cars use several sensors and cameras to operate. Thus, high-quality imaging is necessary for accurate maneuvering. Additionally, the digitalization of existing and new vehicles has catapulted the demand for HD imaging, thereby boosting the global automotive HD imaging market’s growth prospects.
The growing investments in research and development activities by key market players are expected to augment market development.
