The overall SLAM market is projected to reach USD 465 million by 2023 from USD 101 million in 2018, growing at a CAGR of 35.77% during 2018-2023. Major drivers for the market’s growth are the advancements in visual SLAM algorithm, growth of SLAM in augmented reality (AR), and growing demand for self-locating robotics in homes and enterprises.
By application, AR/VR application expected to grow at highest CAGR during forecast period
Huge middle-class population, along with rising disposable income, in developing countries will act as a growth catalyst in these counties. This, in turn, is expected to drive the SLAM market during the forecast period. Advancements in SLAM technology, like improving mapping accuracy, flexibility from cloud services, and better user experience compared to its counterpart (marker-based technology) are expected to propel the growth of SLAM in AR/VR applications during the forecast period.
Market for 2D SLAM expected to hold largest size during 2018-2023
The market for 2D SLAM is expected to continue commanding a larger share of the market than 3D SLAM owing to its increasing use in domestic robots. For instance, in September 2018, ILIFE INNOVATION (China) launched A7, a new pro robot vacuum cleaner, worldwide on Amazon and AliExpress as a premium addition to its A-series robots.
North America expected to account for largest market share during forecast period
Increasing SLAM adoption for automation, coupled with expanding applications of UAVs, has led the path for the market’s growth in the region. The reason for the dominance of the US in North America is its well-established economy, which allows for investments in new technologies. Key players in the SLAM market include Intel (US), Microsoft (US), Alphabet (US), Amazon Robotics (US), Apple (US), Clearpath Robotics (Canada), Aethon (US), The Hi-Tech Robotic Systemz (India), Facebook (US), Intellias (Ukraine), Magic Leap (US), Rethink Robotics (US), Skydio (US), NavVis (Germany), and Mobile Industrial Robots ApS (Denmark).
Recent Developments
- Intel (US), in association with Mobileye (Israel), launched a road experience management (REM) platform—an HD mapping solution that uses data collected by REM-capable vehicles to build maps that can be used in ADAS and autonomous driving systems.
- Intel (US) collaborated with Waymo (US), a subsidiary of Alphabet, to provide computing power required for Level 4 and 5 autonomous vehicles.
- Amazon (US) announced its plans to launch Vesta, a domestic robot that can support functions such as home security, diary reminders, and chat.
Critical questions the report answers:
- Where will all these developments take the industry in the mid to long term?
- What upcoming applications are expected to adopt SLAM technology?
- How are companies adopting SLAM for robotics?
- How is SLAM influencing the AR/VR market?
