Global Thermal Imaging Market Overview

The Global Thermal Imaging market was valued at USD 3.09 billion in 2021 and is expected to reach USD 4.80 billion by the year 2028, at a CAGR of 6.48%.

Thermal Imaging is a method of using infrared radiation and thermal energy to collect information regarding the objects, aiming to develop images of them, even in low visibility environments. It's a type of technology that has conglomerated a broad range of uses across the years. In particular, it's an effective form of night-vision technology, with the capacity to work in the total absence of any light (since it doesn't rely on visible light), and can even work in fog, smog, smoke, and haze. Moreover, thermal imaging is based upon the science of infrared energy (otherwise known as "heat"), which is discharged from all objects. This energy from an object is also known as the "heat signature", and the quantity of radiation emitted tends to be proportional to the overall heat of the object. Thermal cameras or thermal imagers are advanced devices that incorporated a sensitive heat sensor with the capacity to pick up minute differences in temperature. As they gather the infrared radiation from objects in a special environment, they can begin to map out an image based on the differences and inflections of the temperature measurements.

Furthermore, thermal images are grayscale: with white representing heat, black constituting colder regions, and various shades of grey indicating gradients of temperatures between the two. Nevertheless, newer models of thermal imaging cameras even add color to the images they produce, aiming to support users better identify distinct objects more clearly – using colors such as yellow, purple, orange, blue, and red. Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, the global market for Thermal Imaging projected at US$2.9 Billion in the year 2020, is expected to gain a revised size of US$4.5 Billion by 2027, during the forecast period.

Furthermore, the energy audit sector has created new opportunities for thermal imaging technology, especially in preventative maintenance. The automobile industry is including thermal imaging cameras in cars to overcome the potential dangers of accidents at night. For example, major brands such as BMW and Audi have utilized thermal imaging cameras in cars that support in identifying living objects such as pedestrians and animals, which are difficult to spot in the dark. Furthermore, thermal imaging technology is utilized in the healthcare sector to protect animals and humans from disease. hence, these factors are anticipated to trigger the thermal imaging market development throughout the forecast period.

Furthermore, the advancement of low-priced or low-cost systems is one of the key challenges of the thermal imaging market. These systems creep easily into the market, which in turn increases the demand for new apps owing to their exceptional features such as technological evolutions, outsourcing of work, and increased knowledge. The market is also turned by raised demand for low-price infrared and thermal imaging systems which lay the path for new applications. With an increased target on the size of the system and also its price, manufactures are more concerned about designing, integrating, and developing the system which increases sales of the thermal cameras. This demand is anticipated to be a major factor for continual reduction in the cost of thermal imaging systems, along with the rise in the adoption of thermal imaging systems over various commercial markets.

Restraints:

Export restrictions imposed on thermal imaging products are anticipated to restraint the thermal imaging market expansion during the forecast period. Several economies have foisted strict restrictions on the export of certain thermal imaging products. As per the U.S. Department of State Office of Defense Trade Controls, the export of U.S.-produced night vision equipment is strictly prohibited without a valid export license. The limitations are by the International Traffic in Arms (ITAR), Title 22, Code of Federal Regulation Part 120-130. hence, these factors are anticipated to hamper the thermal imaging market development during the forecast period.

Opportunities:

The growing application of thermal imaging in PCs and smartphones can create lucrative opportunities owing to the massive scope for thermal imaging technology in PCs and smartphone applications. Thermal imaging devices need cooling technology, which in turn raises the cost. Key players such as FLIR Systems have launched innovative devices namely the lepton sensor, which is lighter, smaller, and therefore, can be added to a smartphone. Additionally, it does not use an external cooler to run, which decreases the cost of thermal devices. FLIR Systems has also launched a thermal imaging camera named FLIR ONE, which can be easily assimilated in smartphones such as iPhone 5s.

Market Segmentation

Segmentation Analysis of Thermal Imaging Market:

Based on the Product Type, handheld thermal cameras are projected to register the maximum thermal imaging market over the forecast period due to the massive demand for handheld thermal scanners amidst COVID 19 outbreak for temperature measurement over different places such as factories, metro stations, airports, commercial buildings, and others. The growing popularity of handheld thermal imaging devices owing to their portability, ease of utilization, and widespread application in maintenance, quality control, diagnostics, and spot measurements is anticipated to provide market growth.

Based on the Type, The thermal cameras segment is expected to capture the maximum share of the thermal imaging market throughout the forecast period. This growth is due to the rising adoption of thermal cameras in the residential and commercial sectors. In the residential and commercial sectors, thermal imagers are mainly utilized to provide details for leakage, home insulation, cracks, and insufficient insulation. In addition, thermal cameras are competent in operating in the day, fog, night, and cluttered environment.

Based on the Technology, the cooled segment is anticipated to hold the largest share of the thermal imaging market over the projected period. The cooled segment has a maximum market share in 2020 as they can determine even the smallest changes in the temperature. Uncooled thermal imaging is that which has an opportunity to increase during the forecast period owing to cheap-cost devices used in monitoring.
