Inspection Drones Market Trends

Growth Drivers

• Increasing Demand for Stringent Surveillance– According to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, many countries have adopted strict legislation for protection. 137 of 194 countries had enacted measures to provide confidentiality and data protection. Inspection drones outfitted with night vision cameras and thermal imaging are able to offer 24-hour surveillance, even in low-light or poor weather situations.
• Technological Advancement of Drones– Drones today function in both GNSS and non-GNSS modes, utilizing a combination of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) such as GPS and GLONASS.
• Strict Action Against Terrorism– The NATO alliance of 31 countries was formed to work against terrorism in the world. Recently the alliance has revised its terrorism policy guidelines to focus more on curbing terrorism. The increase in national security risks, such as terrorism and illicit entry to important infrastructure, has led governments to implement advanced inspection drones for improved security.

Challenges

• Risk of Interference and Collision – The possibility of colliding with other aircraft, buildings, or obstacles raises safety issues. It is critical to ensure the safety of drones as well as people and things on the ground.
• Limited Range of Battery Life
• Lack of Skilled User and Training
