Car Dashcam Market Technological Advancements, Growth Opportunity and Forecast 2018-2026
Dashcams are small video cameras installed on
the dashboard of a vehicle. They are increasingly being used to film the road
in front or behind a vehicle, either as a source of entertainment or as a
source of evidence in the event of an accident. Moreover, dashcams are
beneficial for capturing unexpected movement of cosmic bodies visible in the
atmosphere. For instance, dashcam footage was the most common footage of the
February 2013 Chelyabinsk meteor, which was a superbolide that entered into
Earth's atmosphere over Russia on 15 February 2013. The video of this
occurrence was documented from at least a dozen angles by dashcams.
Rising concerns regarding safety coupled with
stringent government regulations are major factors driving growth of the global
market
Increasing number of road accidents and rising
safety concerns are the major factors driving growth of the car dashcam market.
According to World Health Organization (WHO), an estimated 1.3 million road
accidents occur annually worldwide, among which around 93% road traffic death
occurs in low and middle income economies. Thus, governments are implementing
standards for safety and prevention of accidents by mandating installation of
rear-view cameras in vehicles worldwide. For instance, in 2014, The National
Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) issued a new regulation that
requires all vehicles under 10,000 pounds, including buses and trucks, to have
backup cameras by 2018. The report reveals that, 210 fatalities and 15,000
injuries on an average are caused by back over accidents while driving in
reverse, annually. This is due to lack of rear visibility causing a substantial
number of pedestrian injuries and deaths every year. These are few major
factors driving growth of the global car dashcam market size.
Global Car Dashcam Market: Restraint
A major factor expected to hinder growth of
the global market is the stringent laws imposed against the use of dashcams in
certain countries. The use of dashboard cameras is forbidden by law and
considered as a violation of privacy in certain European countries such as
Austria, Belgium, and Switzerland and heavy fines are charged on violators,
thus restraining growth of the market. For instance, according to Belgian
Camera Act of March 2007, regulating the installation and use of surveillance
cameras in private places that are accessible to the public, are liable to be
reported.
Global Car Dashcam Market: Vehicle Type
Segment
Among vehicle types, passenger cars accounted
for the largest share in the global car dashcam market in 2016, in terms of
volume. For instance, according to The Organisation Internationale des
Constructeurs d'Automobiles (OICA), in 2016, total vehicle produced globally
was 94,976,569 units, among them 72,105,435 were passenger cars produced in
2016, which is almost 75% of the global vehicle production. Therefore,
increasing vehicle production is leading to high demand for car dash cam market
globally.
Global Car Dashcam Market: Product Type
Segment
Among product types, single lens segment
accounted largest share over of the overall market in 2016 and is projected to
retain its dominance over the forecast period.
Multi lens segment exhibits a high growth
potential and is projected to gain significant traction over the forecast
period. Such dashcams offer front and rear protection to the automobile and
collects all-round evidence in the case of road mishaps. Multi lens dashcams
are capable of recording events taking place in vehicles as well as external
events through the rear windshields.

Global Car Dash cam Market: Regional Insights
The market for car dashcam in Asia Pacific
accounted for the largest share in 2016 and is expected to retain its dominance
over the forecast period. Growth in this region is attributed to presence of
some of the world’s largest manufacturing and sales hubs in the region.
According to Coherent Market Insights’ analysis, production of vehicles in
countries, including China, India, Japan, South Korea, and Thailand accounted
for over 50% of the global production. This in turn, is expected to boost the
demands for car dash board cameras in this region. Additionally, China and
India are expected to be major growth engines for the market in Asia Pacific.
According to The Organisation Internationale des Constructeurs d'Automobiles
(OICA), in 2016, total vehicle sales in China was 28,028,175 units, which was
14.5% of the global sales, this in turn is driving demand for embedded systems
such as dashcams. These factors in turn, are expected to boost growth of the
regional market over the forecast period.
