India & Southeast Asia full body scanner market was valued at US$ 27.08 million in 2021 and is projected to reach US$ 39.07 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 5.4% from 2021 to 2028.
The full body scanner market is experiencing a significant growth due to the increasing year on year government budgets for national security. Many countries across Asia are spending on the procurement of advanced security and scanning systems, such as full body scanner. However, the health concern with regard to full body scanner hampers the growth of the market. Meanwhile, as governments across Asia are realizing the importance of transport infrastructure for economic development, the development of airports, seaports, railway networks, and metro projects is gaining significant traction. This growth is anticipated to flourish the full body scanner market in coming years.
With continuous technological developments taking place across the globe, body scanner manufacturers are looking forward to using advanced technologies to make scanning safer. The inclination toward using safer technology is encouraging the adoption of millimeter-wave over x-rays. The radiation of millimeter-wave is much safer compared to x-ray radiation on a human body. It is 1/1000th of a mobile phone signal. This fact indicates that millimeter-wave-based scanners are safe for use on individuals. Also, millimeter-wave can penetrate basic barrier materials such as paper, plastic, and cloth and detect concealed contraband inside clothing. Compared to x-ray backscatter imaging, the millimeter-wave imaging is nonionizing, making this technology appropriate for personnel surveillance. Also, millimeter-wave systems can accomplish spatial resolution at millimeter levels while giving good image contrast for inspection of concealed weapons.
Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Full Body Scanner Market
India had ordered 198 new full-body scanners from China to set up at airports all across the country. Due to the trade ban between countries and the impact of COVID-19 pandemic, the order was cancelled, and India had to pay a higher amount for the procurement of these machines from other countries. Therefore, the ongoing disruptions in the supply of raw materials and electronic technologies from India are affecting the manufacturing in the country, which is expected to impact the growth of the full-body scanner market in coming quarters. Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the manufacturing and procurement activities of full-body scanner products and solutions have seen a sharp decline with multiple projects on hold and unavailability of labor due to movement restrictions in various countries. Also, the decrease in the number of footfalls at airports, ports, and railways made it unfeasible for the countries to invest in full-body scanners on account of the high cost of installation and being unable to generate the required revenue.

Introduction of 3D Images from Full-Body Scanners
In the era of technological developments, researchers are looking ahead to develop advanced full-body scanners. The professionals have made efforts to develop a machine that can scan a whole body from top to toe in a single shot. The scan will create a 3D image helping doctors & medical professionals to diagnose disorders and generate new treatments faster. The technology used in this type of scanner produces "movies" that detect drugs as they move from the body. These scanners are predicted to have applications ranging from tracking disease progression to improving diagnostics.
In February 2020, the authorities of Indira Gandhi International Airport—India's busiest airport—have declared the installation of 69 full-body scanners, which use millimeter wave technology that eradicates high-frequency radio waves. These scanners capture high-resolution 3D images of passengers, enabling the authorities to detect plastic weapons/explosive.
Component-Based Market Insights
Based on type, the full body scanner market is bifurcated into hardware and software. The hardware segment dominated the market in 2020, by accounting 63.8% of market share. The same segment is anticipated to continue its dominance during the forecast period. The full body scanner is one of prominent systems that help security authority identify and detect illicit or hazardous object without making a human contact to the subject. Hardware of a full body scanner consists of scanning system and an output device i.e. screen(s). Scanning system is either millimeter wave scanner or X-ray technology. For instance, companies such as Linev, Adani, 3F Advanced Systems, Astrophysics Inc., and Nuctech Company Limited offer X-ray-based full body scanners, whereas companies such as Smiths Group plc., Rohde & Schwarz, EAS Envimet Analytical Systems, and Leidos offers millimeter wave scanner full body scanners. Moreover, owing to the increasing emphasis on national security across the region, transport terminal such as airports, railways & metro, seaports, and at critical infrastructure are investing significantly for procurement of advance security and & scanning technologies.
Technology-Based Market Insights
Based on technology, the full body scanner market is bifurcated into millimeter wave scanner and X-ray. The millimeter wave scanner uses millimeter wave imaging (MWI) technology for scanning application. The scanner generates electromagnetic waves along with series of disc-like, small transmitters that are stacked on one another and each transmitter is surrounded by radome. The wavelength generally falls between 0.001 meters and 0.01 meters.
Application-Based Market Insights
Based on application, the full body scanner market is bifurcated into transport and critical infrastructure protection. Owing to favorable economic policies coupled with the availability of cheap and skilled labor across Asia Pacific, the economic development has flourished across the region over the last two decades. Moreover, as government across the region started to realize the importance of transport infrastructure, the development of airports and railways has gained massive traction. With the growing transport infrastructure projects in the region, the full body scanner market is expected to witness steady growth opportunities during the forecast period.
