Data Bridge Market Research analyses that the market is growing with a CAGR of 9.4% in the forecast period of 2021 to 2028 and expected to reach USD 153.98 million by 2028. Increasing demand for multispectral imaging systems is acting as major factor for the growth of the market.
Short-wave infrared (SWIR) is typically defined as light in the 0.9–1.7μm wavelength range, or can also be in range of 0.7–2.5μm. Short-wave Infrared imaging (SWIR) refers to an advanced technique which is used for producing images based on radiation in the region of the electromagnetic spectrum invisible to the naked eye. SWIR imaging requires unique optical and electronic components capable of performing in the specific SWIR range. A large number of applications that are difficult or impossible to perform using visible light are possible using SWIR. When imaging in SWIR, water vapor, fog, other environment constraints and certain materials such as silicon are transparent. SWIR imagers are used in a large number of applications such as silicon inspection, laser beam profiling, hyperspectral imaging, chemical and plastics sensing, machine vision imaging, agricultural sensing, surveillance systems, and medical imaging. They are also intended for use in mobile phone facial recognition sensors, and autonomous vehicle imaging though obscured environments.
Some of the factors which are driving the market are rising demand for shortwave infrared cameras in machine vision applications and growing adoption of night vision technologies. Stringent regulations related to import and export of SWIR cameras is restraining the North America SWIR market growth. Increasing industrial automation worldwide and rising popularity of miniaturized SWIR sensors and components are some of the factors which are opening lucrative opportunity for the market. Issues in reducing the cost of shortwave infrared cameras and limitations of InGaAs sensor technology is acting as a major challenge for the market growth.
