Automotive RADAR Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increase in the number of Road Accidents.

Road traffic injuries are a key public concern faced by governments across the globe, and the increasing prevalence of the road accidents hinders the development of market in those countries. According to the data by the World Health Organization (WHO), nearly 1.19 million people die due to road accidents. Most of the accidents on the road are occur in developing and developed economies are due to human driving errors. While vehicle safety technology has improved significantly over the past few decades with the advent of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and the prospect of autonomous vehicles, these numbers show that vehicle safety needs to improve at a much faster pace and suggest the need to adopt automated driving technologies can help dramatically reduce the number of fatalities by removing human driver error from the equation. Hence, the rise in the number of road accidents is expected to drive the demand for automotive RADAR systems, which in turn is anticipated to fuel the market growth in the coming years.

Rising Demand for Advanced Imaging Radar

With the mounting number of level 2+ vehicles on the road, the need for advanced and more accurate automotive radar sensors is increasing. This acts as a huge opportunity for OEMs to offer basic-level radar sensors. For instance, Xilinx and Continental announced the first production-ready 4D imaging radar. Theoretically, 4D imaging radar uses echolocation (a mechanism that is observed in dolphins, bats, and several humans) and the time-of-flight measurement principle to capture a space in 3D. Furthermore, these radar systems are designed to fulfill the imaging requirements within the time scale of a fast-moving automobile or a zooming drone. Therefore, the fourth dimension enhances the overall accuracy of a self-driving system. The 4D imaging radar is operational in all types of weather/environmental conditions, including fog, darkness, and heavy rains. Numerous companies are investing in R&D to introduce such advanced radar-based imaging technologies and gain a maximum share in the global automotive radar market.
