LiDAR Drone Market Dynamics :
Adoption of LiDAR drones in mining applications
Mines across the world are under continuous production. The processes require the accurate collection and processing of large amounts of information. Inaccurate measurements in coal or iron mines lead to inefficient operations and may affect the desired output and quality of products. There are four types of mining, namely, underground, placer, in-situ, and open pit. Traditional measurement methods use GNSS, total station, and other equipment that require surveyors to go on site and perform measurements. These methods are time-consuming and typically not safe. Additionally, the data generated through these methods cannot be visualized globally, thus, restricting digital updates in modern mines. LiDAR drone technology has emerged as an effective solution to overcome the challenges of difficult topography, hazardous conditions, and other mine site issues. LiDAR is cutting-edge technology in the field of surveying and mapping. LiDAR integrated drones enable the measurement of three-dimensional coordinates of objects on the ground, penetrate vegetation, and apply a point cloud filtering method to generate a high-precision digital terrain model.
Stringent regulations and restrictions related to use of drones in various countries
The popularity of LiDAR drones is increasing worldwide owing to their growing use in a wide range of applications for accurate data acquisition. Although a few countries have relaxed regulations related to the use of drones, several countries have stringent policies regulating the use of drones. Hence, permissions from different government entities are required for flying them. Moreover, drone operators must incur huge registration fees and seek approvals before each flight. Some countries such as Algeria, Barbados, Brunei, Cote d’Ivoire, Cube, Iran, Kenya, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Madagascar, Morocco, Nicaragua, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Sri Lanka, Syria, and Uzbekistan have restricted the use of drones. These kinds of policies act as restraining factors for the growth of the LiDAR drone market.
Emergence of 4D LiDAR sensors
4D LiDAR sensors have all features of 3D LiDAR sensors, along with cameras. 4D LiDAR-based drones can be used in a number of applications such as battle damage assessment, mission planning, and environment management. The videos from these cameras can be merged with LiDAR technology for capturing multi-megapixel images at a speed of up to 30 frames per second with accurate depth for each pixel. As a result, these cameras can process real-time data by 100x, thereby providing the exact location of the targeted objects and their motion with respect to their surrounding environments. The emergence of 4D LiDAR sensors is expected to act as an opportunity for the growth of the LiDAR drone market.
High purchasing and operational costs of LiDAR drones
LiDAR drones are complicated systems that require high input power from batteries for surveying applications. The power consumed by LiDAR drones depends on the components installed on them. The cost of these drones varies from USD 50,000 to USD 300,000. LiDAR sensors are high-cost sensors deployed on drones with high payloads to carry them safely. The use of heavyweight drones increases their overall purchasing and operational costs. High-end LiDAR drones have several components such as LiDAR sensors, UAV cameras, global positioning systems (GPS), global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), initial measurement units (IMUs), and heavy batteries installed on them, which increases their overall costs.
LiDAR lasers to dominate LiDAR drone market by component throughout the forecast period
LiDAR lasers are among the main components of LiDAR drones. They are extensively used for carrying out different types of surveys. LiDAR lasers are used to scan the environment. They record the time taken by the reflected signals from objects to reach the detectors. The measurement of time-of-flight (ToF) reflection time can be used for distances ranging from a few meters to several kilometers. During the scanning process, LiDAR laser systems gather information and 3D images of the surrounding environments.
Bathymetric LiDAR to grow at a highest CAGR between 2022 and 2027
Bathymetric LiDAR is preferred over other bathymetry methods, including sonar owing to considerable accuracy in various applications. A bathymetric LiDAR system employs two lasers of different wavelengths. The wavelength of the green channel is optimal for penetrating water and therefore measuring the water depth. The red return signal gives the height of the plane above the water. The water depth is calculated from the time difference between the two return signals. As the green laser pulse travels through the water column and reflects off the seafloor, it undergoes absorption, scattering, and refraction.
Short-range LiDAR drones to record for largest market share in 2027
The growth of short-range LiDAR drones segment can be attributed to the increased global demand for short-range LiDAR drones, which are lightweight and offer highly detailed data acquisition. Short-range LiDAR drones have gained traction over the last few years owing to their increased use by surveyors, as no additional permissions are required to fly them. Short-range LiDAR drones operate with high accuracy in a range of less than 200m and are suitable for carrying out small-scale surveys. These short-range LiDAR drones are lightweight and offer improved maneuverability with increased battery life.
Market in APAC to grow significantly during the forecast period
The LiDAR drone market in Asia Pacific is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. The fastest growth of the LiDAR drone market in Asia Pacific can be attributed to the growing opportunities for LiDAR drones for surveying and mapping operations in infrastructural development projects, forest management, and mining activities in the region. Moreover, moderate government policies related to the use of LiDAR drones, easy availability of low-cost LiDAR drones, and the presence of local players in the region are expected to drive the growth of the LiDAR drone market in Asia Pacific during the forecast period.
