Thermal Imaging Market with COVID-19 Impact and Analysis, by Product Type (Modules, Cameras, Scopes), Type (Handheld and Standstill), Technology(Cooled, Uncooled), Application, Wavelength(SWIR, MWIR, LWIR), Vertical, and Region - Global Forecast to 2026
The outbreak and spread of COVID-19 have led to a slowdown in global economic growth. It has adversely affected several industries, including the thermal imaging industry. Companies are planning and working on keeping their businesses operational. Manufacturing and distributing products are the key challenges faced by companies. Several countries worldwide have imposed or prolonged lockdowns to contain the spread of the pandemic, which has resulted in disruptions in the supply chain of the thermal imaging market.
Thermal cameras segment to account for the largest share of thermal imaging market during the forecast period
On the basis of product types, the thermal imaging market has been segmented into three categories—thermal cameras, thermal scopes, and thermal modules. The thermal cameras segment held the largest share of the thermal imaging market in 2020 and is expected to continue this growth during the forecast period. Several reasons, such as an electronic image of high-quality precision produced in less time and the availability in different types (handheld, mounted, and standalone) and various micro-and nano-sizes, contribute to this dominance.
Security and surveillance segment to account for the largest share of thermal imaging market during the forecast period
Based on applications, the thermal imaging market has been segmented into security and surveillance, monitoring and inspection, and detection and measurement. The security and surveillance segment held the largest share of the thermal imaging market during the forecast period. Rapid urbanization increases the demand for advanced thermal imaging solutions for security and surveillance applications. The rising conflicts and terrorist activities among countries also increase the demand for well-equipped systems to monitor the country's borders from the illegal intrusion of enemies and protect the country from them.
North America to account for the largest share of thermal imaging market during the forecast period
Among all regions, North America accounted for the largest share of the thermal imaging market and is expected to continue this growth during the forecast period. The region is home to the major producers of thermal imaging components, such as thermal cameras, scopes, and modules. The US is the major contributor to this region and accounts for ~89% of the total thermal imaging market share in North America. The growth of the thermal imaging market in this region is attributed to the presence of numerous manufacturers and distributors, the low cost of thermal imaging components, and the increasing government expenditure in the aerospace & defense sector.

The report profiles the most promising players in the thermal imaging market. The competitive landscape of the market presents an interesting picture of the strategies adopted by a large number of players.
Thermal imaging cameras to hold largest market share during forecast period
Owing to the increase in need for thermal inspections and monitoring in residential and commercial sectors, the use of thermal imaging cameras is on the rise. A thermal imaging camera provides insights into home insulation systems, locates air leaks, spots inadequate insulations, and so on. Additionally, these cameras have been used in perimeter security and tracking applications in most countries around the globe. Cameras accounted for the largest share of ~52% of the overall thermal imaging market in 2017.
Thermal imaging market for monitoring and inspection application to grow at highest CAGR during forecast period
The market for the monitoring and inspection application is expected to grow at the highest CAGR owing to the penetration of low-cost and high-quality thermal imaging cameras in home automation, medical, food processing, and ADAS. Moreover, miniaturized camera modules are used by most of the OEMs for their customized solutions, resulting in their increased growth.
Aerospace & defense vertical to hold largest share of thermal imaging market during forecast period
The thermal imaging market is dominated by the aerospace & defense vertical owing to the growing need for border security for law enforcement. Moreover, thermal imaging scopes and defense solutions conform to the strictest military standards for deployment (land, sea, and air). These solutions are used for thermal scopes, weapon sights and stations, gimbals, UAVs, naval observation, IR sensors, and driver vision enhancers (DVEs) for tanks and military vehicles.
North America to hold largest share of thermal imaging market during forecast period
North America is likely to continue to lead the thermal imaging market; it accounted for the largest share of the global thermal imaging market in 2017. Growing demand for smartphone-based devices and the increasing adoption of thermal imaging in commercial and home automation are driving the growth of the thermal imaging market in the region. Owing to the presence of thermal imaging product manufacturers and R&D centers in the region, demand for thermal imaging is high in North America.
