The report published by The Brainy Insights shows that the global Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) Lenses market is expected to grow from USD 186.5 million in 2021 to USD 395.1 million by 2030, at a CAGR of 8.7% during the forecast period 2022-2030.
Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) Lenses are a type of lens that helps view non-visible light with a wavelength between 1400 and 3000 nanometers (nm). Shortwave infrared cameras are devices that can detect invisible radiation which is not visible to the naked eye. The increasing demand for shortwave infrared lenses in traditional surveillance imaging and developments increases the market's growth. The SWIR (Shortwave Infrared) lenses have specific different characteristics that make them more useful for capturing images in low light and might as well. It helps capture images during bad weather conditions, which makes it an ideal lens to be used in the defense and military sectors. Airbus Defence & Space (ADS), the prime contractor for the European Copernicus Land Surface Temperature Monitoring (LSTM) mission, selected Lynred to create a new linear SWIR (shortwave infrared) array. This linear shortwave infrared array is expected to be integrated into an image capable of measuring land-surface temperatures. This is expected to assist the organization in expanding its consumer base.
Competitive Landscape:
To enhance their market position in the global Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) Lenses market, the key players are now focusing on adopting the strategies such as product innovations, mergers & acquisitions, recent developments, joint ventures, collaborations, and partnerships.
Market growth and trends:
The increasing demand for Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) lenses in the military and defense sectors drive the market's growth as they are capable of capturing clear images in harsh weather, such as smoke, haze, fog, and water vapor pushes the market's growth and increasing use of shortwave infrared lenses in surveillance, marine intelligence, and vision enhancement adds impetus to the market's growth. However, the high capital investment required to obtain shortwave infrared lenses is restraining the market's growth. Furthermore, the stringent import and export regulation required for obtaining shortwave infrared lenses also hampers the needs during the forecast period. The rising demand for shortwave infrared lenses in various other applications, such as microbe and disease analysis, ecosystem evaluation, ergonomics, climate change studies, and psychology, provides growth opportunities for the market during the forecast period. However, the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic challenged the market's growth, as there were disruptions in the supply chain market.
Key Findings
The product type segment is divided into fixed lenses and zoom lenses. In 2021, the fixed lenses segment dominated the market with the largest market share of 63% and market revenue of 117.49 million. Fixed lenses are suitable for research, industrial and security applications owing to their high-quality images even in bad weather conditions, driving the segment's growth.
The application segment is divided into military laser spotting, border & port surveillance, and night vision systems. In 2021, the border & port surveillance segment accounted for the largest share of the market, with 46% and market revenue of 85.79 million. The increasing use of shortwave infrared lenses to identify a person using photo matching and facial recognition propels the segment's growth.
