Allied Market Research, titled, “Collision Avoidance Sensor Market by Technology, Function Type, Application, and Industry Vertical: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021–2030,” the global collision avoidance sensor industry size was valued at $4.0 billion in 2020, and is projected to reach $12.25 billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of 11.9%. Asia-Pacific is expected to be the leading contributor toward the global market during the forecast period, followed by LAMEA and North America.

Collision avoidance sensor is a device which responds to situations in two diverse manners. The first is to make a driver aware of the danger through a sound, light, or both and second is to alert vehicles with back & front cameras likewise give visual warning of obstructions.

The growth of the global collision avoidance sensor market size is anticipated to be driven by factors such as surge in sales of sports utility vehicles (SUVs), high-end luxury vehicles, and utility vehicles. In addition, rising improvements in the fields of the camera boosts the overall market growth. However, cyclic nature of automotive sales and production acts as a major restraint of the global market. On the contrary, rise in the automotive safety norms, and installing advanced driver assistance system in passenger cars is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the collision avoidance sensor industry. Moreover, developing nations tend to witness high penetration of collision avoidance sensor products especially in automotive sector, which is anticipated to augment the collision avoidance sensor market growth. Factors such as rise in driverless vehicles also accelerate the market growth.

The global collision avoidance sensor market share is segmented on the basis of technology, function type, application, industry vertical, and region. By technology, the market is classified into radar, camera, ultrasound, Lidar, and others. Depending on function type, the market is categorized into adaptive, automated, monitoring, and warning. The application covered in the study include adaptive cruise control (ACC), blind spot detection (BSD), forward collision warning system (FCWS), lane departure warning system (LDWS), parking assistance, night vision (NV), autonomous emergency braking, and others. On the basis of industry vertical, the market is classified into automotive, rail, marine, aerospace & defense, and others.

Region wise, the collision avoidance sensor market trends have been analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA. Europe contributed maximum revenue in 2020. However, between 2020 and 2030, the market in Asia-Pacific is expected to grow at a faster rate as compared to other regions. This is attributed to increase in demand from the emerging economical countries such as India, China, Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea.
