Autonomous Navigation Market Dynamics

Autonomous Navigation Market Drivers

  • The global autonomous navigation market will majorly prosper due to the logistics industry. Increasing popularity of online buying platforms is boosting the growth of e-commerce businesses. E-commerce enterprises offer speedier service, reliable features, and accessibility to its customers, thus making it an ideal option. This rise in popularity has resulted in the employment of robots in logistics. Rise in demand for retrieval systems, automated storage, automated guided vehicles, autonomous mobile robots, and aerial drones will bring lucrative growth opportunities for the market.
  • Another factor that drives the market growth is the increased adoption of autonomous navigation in unmanned vehicles for the military. Due to advanced technology and significant investment from governments throughout the world, the use of unmanned vehicles such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), unmanned ground vehicles (UGV), and others in military applications has increased. As the use of unmanned vehicles for military operations grows, it has become more important to upgrade a UAV's communication and navigation system to boost efficiency and extend the range of the link. During military government surveillance applications, autonomous navigation plays a critical function in delivering situational awareness. Hence, this further contributes to market growth.

Autonomous Navigation Market Restraint

  • Factors hindering the market growth include the lack of standard infrastructure for the operation of robots in developing countries. The United States, the United Kingdom, China, and Japan have designed and developed logistical infrastructure that is compatible with autonomous vehicles. However, in Asia and the Middle East, lack of infrastructure and standard operating procedures for robots has impeded market expansion. Furthermore, in recent years, the usage of robots in production has increased. The market growth has been stifled by the lack of talent and understanding in the operation of autonomous systems.
