Side View Camera System Market Dynamics
Rising accident cases due to blind spots
In the last two decades, rapid industrialization and economic expansion in major emerging regions have resulted in huge urbanization, and motor traffic growth. Moreover, the rising income, the availability of low-cost vehicles, and easy borrowing have all contributed to an increase in demand for passenger vehicles. Commercial vehicle adoption has been aided by increased trade, logistics, and investment in urban transportation infrastructure. The growth in motor traffic has resulted in a significant increase in road accidents worldwide.
Though accidents can be caused by poor road conditions and a lack of vehicle maintenance, a human mistake is the leading cause of traffic accidents. Lack of judgment, intoxicated driving, and inexperienced drivers are all key factors in the rise in traffic accidents. According to the WHO, road traffic accidents kill more than 1.3 million people globally each year. According to research conducted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), 840,000 blind spot accidents occur in the United States each year, resulting in more than 300 deaths.
A modern passenger car or commercial vehicle has several blind spots, especially on the sides. A side-view camera system can accurately monitor blind spots on the vehicle's sides and alert the driver to nearby traffic, allowing the driver to take action accordingly. Passenger and commercial vehicle owners are increasingly investing in side-view cameras to increase situational awareness and as an important safety measure while driving. Therefore, the rising rates of accidents due to blind spots is a key driver for the side view camera system market.
High cost of side view camera systems
A side view camera system is high-tech equipment made up of hundreds of precision components. As a result, there is rising worry about the system's exorbitant costs, despite the fact that the use of side view camera systems has grown in recent years. Also, years are spent on research and development activities, which include extensive prototyping and field testing. These factors boost the price of side view camera systems.
Moreover, as the use of side view cameras is not mandated in most countries, passenger and commercial vehicle operators avoid them due to the high costs and additional expenditures necessary. Thus, the high cost of side view camera systems could hamper the sales and demand for side view camera systems in the global market.
Side View Camera System Market Segment Analysis
The global side view camera system market is segmented based on type, component, vehicle, sales channel and region.
Economic growth, industrialization and growth of trade and logistics
Economic growth, industrialization and growth of trade and logistics have increased the adoption of commercial vehicles such as trucks, earthmovers and trailers. Growing government investment in public transportation has increased the adoption of buses. However, the growth in vehicular traffic and multiple factors such as bad road conditions and inexperienced drivers is causing a massive increase in the frequency and rate of road accidents. Due to their bigger size, commercial vehicles have major blind spots on their sides, leading to accidents. Accidents involving commercial vehicles cause massive damage to human lives and property.
Furthermore, accidents involving some commercial vehicles such as tankers carrying hazardous chemicals and fuel can impact a much greater area. Various safety measures are being undertaken to reduce the rate of accidents for commercial vehicles and the ensuing damage. Therefore, commercial vehicles are increasingly being fitted with side-view camera systems to increase situational awareness, eliminate blind spots, and allow the driver to adapt quickly to dangerous driving situations. Although most side-view camera systems are fitted in the aftermarket, many commercial vehicle manufacturers now offer them as a standard safety feature.
Market Geographical Share
A well-developed network of interstate highways, dense vehicular traffic and neglected state of road infrastructure
North America is a high-income developed region that is a major international hub of commerce. The U.S. is the world's largest economy and is a major hub of international trade and logistics. North American countries such as the U.S., Canada and Mexico have signed the North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA), which has led to a massive increase in regional trade. All three countries, especially the U.S., have a well-developed network of interstate highways. Almost all major goods traded in North America occurs through roadways. Refrigerated trucks, dumpsters and truck trailers are common commercial vehicles used to transport goods in North America.
The dense vehicular traffic, neglected state of road infrastructure and overworked drivers, has led to frequent road accidents across the region. It has caused major economic losses and damage to life and property. Trucking and logistic companies have installed side-view camera systems to increase safety during driving.
Premium and luxury passenger vehicles come installed with side-view camera systems. Many passenger vehicle owners install these systems in the aftermarket due to increased awareness. Commercial vehicle manufacturers have also started offering side-view camera systems as standard in many new models.
