Global UAV Sense and Avoid Systems Market - Analysis & Forecast:

Various developed nations around the globe are actively utilizing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) for military purposes, such as surveillance and combat missions; and non-military purposes, such as oil and gas pipeline surveillance, wind mill monitoring, and crime surveillance, resulting into a high rate of air traffic. With this level of increased air traffic, there arises a high demand for UAV sense and avoid systems, preventing drones from colliding with each other, or heading towards other obstacles, causing collateral damage. Moreover, to increase the safety of civil airspace, several government organizations are attempting to mandate sense and avoid systems in UAVs. Unlike manned aircraft, drones without the presence a human pilot cannot detect obstacles in close vicinity without the use of certain technical systems. Therefore, in order to attain safer drone navigation and their integration in the global airspace, there is an impending need of sense and avoid system in UAVs. In terms of value, the UAV sense and avoid systems market was estimated to generate $41.52 million globally in the year 2015. The UAV sense and avoid systems market is anticipated to further develop with a significant growth rate due to an increasing number of small and large UAVs. 

Rules and regulations imposed by the government authorities of several nations mandating the usage of sense and avoid system, along with an increasing number of UAVs in commercial as well as defense applications, are some of the major factors responsible for driving the sense and avoid market forward. Several players and startups are developing a range of advanced autonomous sense and avoid systems. However, some of these systems are still under the testing phase. Similarly, sense and avoid systems market provides opportunities to other emerging players in order to develop efficient systems.  Whereas, high cost and size constraints of some of the components of sense and avoid system are some of the challenges to overcome in this industry.

The major applications in UAV sense-and-avoid systems market are in military and non-military segments. Military applications further include armed force mission, border surveillance, and disaster relief, among others. Non-military applications include homeland security, environmental monitoring, aerial mapping and surveillance and other commercial applications. Some of these applications necessitate a proliferated use of sense and avoid systems, due to UAV operations carried out in a confined environment resulting into high risk for collision. At present, sense and avoid systems use cooperative and non-cooperative technology or combination of both to attain highly efficient results. These technologies include different types of components such as radar, LiDAR, Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (T-CAS), Automatic Dependant Surveillance Broadcast, and sonar among others. Cooperative technologies are being used in sense and avoid systems from past several years, due to its high precision and greater reliability as compared to non-cooperative technology. Hence, cooperative technology accounts for the lion’s share in the revenue generation.

In terms of revenue generation, the UAV sense and avoid systems market is dominated by North America, with Europe being the second most revenue generating region. Furthermore, most of the new players entering the sense and avoid systems market and patents registered against this technology comes from North America. These factors result in North America being the most technologically advanced and highest growing region for the sense and avoid systems market; with a CAGR of 10.48% in the forecast period.

Some of the key players in sense and avoid market are Intel Corporation, Thales Group, IMSAR LLC, Sagetech Corporation and Leonardo-Finmeccanica. Moreover, some the key startups include Echodyne, Aeryon Labs, Airware, uAvionix and Dronomy.
