Thermal Imaging Market Research Report, by Type (Cameras, Modules, Scopes), Application (Security & Surveillance, Monitoring & Inspection, Detection), Vertical (Industrial, Commercial, Aerospace & Defense, and Others) — Global Forecast till 2023

Market synopsis

Thermal imaging is a technique of improving visibility and clarity of objects in a dark environment by detecting them using infrared radiation and creating an image based on that information. Thermal imaging can penetrate obscurants such as smoke, fog, and haze and can work in environments without any ambient light. With the help of thermal imaging, companies can reduce their downtime as they no longer have to shut down their operational systems even during thermal energy audit. Furthermore, this is non-invasive technique and involves zero physical contact. Thus, there is no damage caused to the devices subjected to thermal surveys. Thermal imaging is used in industrial, residential, commercial and military & defense applications to monitor critical manufacturing processes and detect hot spots in mechanical or electrical installation in industries. Commercial applications consist of building diagnosis and airport security. Furthermore, it is also used in numerous security applications. The residential sector is expected to witness substantial growth owing to the availability of low-cost devices and high market penetration. Thermal imaging helps in detecting moisture in walls, ceiling, roofs, plumbing leaks and blockages.

Players like FLIR Systems, Bae Systems, L-3 Communications contributes to the major share in the thermal imaging market. However, new startups like Bounce Imaging are challenging the existing players with their innovative product portfolio. Companies such as FLIR Systems and Vummi have introduced smartphones with thermal imaging capability. BAE Systems OASYS thermal imaging product uses the latest uncooled thermal technology to deliver thermal imaging and aiming products for the most discerning operators.

High investment in infrastructure development along with the growing demand for professional surveillance and the need of security applications across public and private sectors are the major factors responsible for driving the thermal imaging market. However, export restrictions and additional detailing required for longwave infrared cameras, used in thermal imaging would hinder the market growth over the forecast period.
