LiDAR Drone Market Share 2020-2027

An increase in popularity in the photogrammetric system field by non-metric digital cameras mounted on unmanned aerial vehicles such as fixed-wing aircraft or multi-copter is projected to boost the market in the future years.

The global LiDAR drone market is set to gain traction from the rising popularity of drones in different applications worldwide. Besides, the increasing usage of unique positioning and navigation systems, as well as mapping technology would affect the market positively.
 

"Rising Usage of 3D Mapping for Infrastructural Development Projects to Spur Growth"

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) LiDAR drones are nowadays being used extensively for gathering data of numerous mountain terrains and dense landscapes. This remote sensing technology is similar to that of radar technology. But, instead of radio-waves, it mainly uses laser light pulses. Engineers and experts are utilizing this technology of developing three-dimensional representations of buildings, bridges, roadways, railroads, shoreline structures, breakwaters, and highways. Also, the rising need for 3D mapping for new infrastructural development projects would propel the LiDAR drone market growth in the near future. However, the U.S. Federal Government has deployed numerous stringent laws regarding the usage of LiDAR drones in the aviation sector. It may hamper growth.

"Key Players Engage in Novel LiDAR Drone Development to Gain Competitive Edge " 

The market consists of a large number of dominant players, namely, Teledyne Optech, REIGL, Leica, and Velodyne. They are mainly engaging in the strategy of advanced product launches to gain a competitive edge in the market for LiDAR drones. Below are two of the latest industry developments:

March 2020: Teledyne Optech unveiled its latest compact LiDAR sensor named CL-360. It is fully optimized for mobile and UAV applications. It also offers collection efficiency, small-object detection, high data quality, and unmatched performance for several projects. 

August 2019: Velodyne Lidar launched its Puck 32MR sensor for the autonomous industry. It is a cheap solution for low-speed UAVs. It can be used in shuttles, robotics, as well as in industrial vehicles.

Fortune Business Insights™ presents a list of the prominent LiDAR drone manufacturers operating in the global market. They are as follows:

  • Teledyne Optech (Canada)
  • RIEGL Laser Measurement Systems GmbH (Austria)
  • Velodyne Lidar, Inc. (The U.S.)
  • RoboSense (China)
