San Francisco,17 October 2018: According to a report published by Grand View Research, Inc.; consumer drone market is expected to reach a valuation of around USD 4.19 billion by 2024.
Increasing importance of drone flying as hobby such as racing, and UAV photography can propel the market over the forecast period (2013 to 2024). In addition, supportive regulatory framework regarding drone flying for non-commercial activities in selected geographies can have positive impact on the market.
Technological advancements in electronics is expected to create more opportunities in the market. Development of new technologies like geo-fencing and collision avoidance to make flying drone safer. This has increased the acceptance of drones across the world.
Consumer unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have gained much traction in the recent times due to their ability to capture high-resolution image and video and new dynamic designs. Launch of high-resolution 4K cameras and advanced Gimbal systems are projected to increase the use of UAVs in nature exploration and photography. In addition, development of drones with hydrogen fuel cells in the back-end conserve energy and supply power to UAVs to accomplish long flight duration is the new trend in the market. UAVs with dynamic concept design and improved flight capability have increased their applications in electronics, gaming, and associated hobby areas. Furthermore, supportive efforts by regulatory agencies like European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), Federal Aviation Authority (FAA), and rising government spending on the development of advanced UAVs are presumed to boost the market growth over the forecast period.
However, factors such as small flight time due to less battery life of drones, complexities associated with maintenance and repair, and concerns regarding privacy and accidents can challenge the market growth.
Worldwide consumer drone market can be segmented on the basis of product, application, and region.
