Remote Automotive Exhaust Sensing Market Trends

Growth Drivers

• Rising Air Pollution – An established technique that can offer distinctive insight into the real contributions of traffic to air pollution is remote sensing whereby a sensor and a light beam are used to assess chemical concentrations in the exhaust as a vehicle passes by. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), an estimated seven million people die from air pollution each year in the world. 
• Growing Government Initiatives- The government across the globe is making every effort to reduce air pollution and has implemented a variety of regulations to prevent, control, and lessen air pollution nationwide. For instance, the Global Methane Pledge (GMP) is an initiative that encourages countries to voluntarily cut methane emissions by over 25% by 2030 compared to 2020 level.

Challenges

• High Cost of Implementation - Remote automotive exhaust sensing offers real-time data monitoring and employs sensors and cameras to assess exhaust emissions from vehicles in real-world operations, however their adoption in some vehicles is still restricted by their high cost. Automakers must make a large financial commitment since integrating complicated sensors into vehicles can be challenging, and it may also be challenging to obtain sensors from several vendors.
• Integration of complex technology may increase the overall cost of the system
• Stringent emission regulations and standards may limit the adoption
