Global Dashboard Camera Market By Drivers & Restraints

Dashboard Camera Market Drivers:   

Road Accident and Vehicle Theft Incidence Are Rising

  • The number of theft and traffic accident incidences worldwide is steadily rising, which has led to a rise in the use of dashboard cameras. Dashcam film gives viewers a clear picture of who is responsible for collisions when a car is involved in an accident or other high-stress situation. In addition, this can expedite insurance claims and lower insurance costs. A dashboard camera's ability to identify and apprehend those guilty of theft and parking accident incidents is another noteworthy benefit. These advantages raise demand for them, which improves revenue generation. Because more and more cars are being stolen, the dashboard camera market has been growing quickly in recent years.

  • Because of this growing number, a number of countries have started requiring dash cam installations in cars, which has accelerated the expansion of the industry. In the upcoming years, there will likely be a greater need for dashboard cameras in cars due to the rise in auto theft. While the driver is away from their vehicle, the cameras monitor the area for possible auto thefts and vandalism while in the parking mode of operation. When the ignition is turned off or the car is motionless for a predetermined amount of time, dash cams with this feature automatically transition to parking mode. When the camera detects movement, it begins to record footage in order to gather as much evidence as it can.

Advantages for Motorists and Vehicle Owners

  • Data captured by dashboard cameras offers trustworthy and precise details about the sequence, timing, and movements made during the pre-crash period. The information gathered may help to clarify the causes of accidents, strengthen safety protocols, and increase road safety. The majority of dashboard cameras are programmed to begin recording as soon as the engine starts and are connected to the engine. Because of this technology, the dashboard cameras are always in record mode, which may be required by insurance companies.

  • The use of dashboard cameras aids fleet managers in keeping an eye on the driving habits of their employees. Dashboard cameras allow car rental firms to monitor their customers' driving habits. Furthermore, watching driving videos can help someone become a better driver.

Tight Government Regulations and a Rise in Insurance Fraud

  • These days, multiple-channel dash cams are very popular since many types allow for in-cabin video in addition to front- and rear-view filming. This makes it possible to observe in-depth and in real time. Furthermore, the industry is expanding in developing countries like Brazil and India. Due of the sharp increase in vehicle traffic in developing nations and the associated frauds and accidents, manufacturers see an opportunity.

  • The increasing demand for anti-theft measures is expected to drive growth in the 2-channel dashboard camera market. As more consumers and owners of commercial fleets move from low-resolution DVRs to full HD or better-resolution cameras, the need for dash cams with higher resolutions is growing.

Restrains in the Dashboard Camera Market:

Privacy Concerns and Regulations:

  • Vehicle manufacturers had started using the digital recorders when complaints regarding the malfunctioning of airbags were filed. Such a move was focused on improving airbag technology and protecting themselves against liability. The increasing computerization of cars, advanced electronics, and data exchange between vehicles and connected devices could lead to the unintended benefit of dashboard camera-recorded data.

  • Most dashboard camera systems are either equipped with inbuilt GPS or have provision for connecting an external GPS module. Telecommunication companies record location information over a period via these GPS modules stored in their database. Personal security can be compromised if user-sensitive location data falls into the wrong hands or is misused. Moreover, some laws allow other entities, such as government agencies, to access data without the user's permission in certain circumstances.

Key Opportunities in Dashboard Camera Market:

Positive Efforts Regarding Dashboard Camera Installation

  • In order to provide their drivers and passengers with the highest level of safety and protection, several nations have legalized the use of dashboard cameras. A measure requiring dashboard camera systems in all government-owned police cars, public utility vehicles (PUVs), and school buses was filed by Senator JV Ejercito in the Philippines.

  •  The concept comprises public transit vehicles (PUVs) that are owned by the government, PUVs that offer application-based transportation services, and other vehicles of a similar nature.

  • The Dash Cam Law, officially known as Senate Bill No. 1457, was registered on May 16, 2017. The goal of the law is to lessen infractions of traffic laws and roadside incidents.

  • It is anticipated that the regulation will shield drivers from dishonest law enforcement officials who abuse their authority and turn to extortion.

  • Dashboard cameras are becoming more and more common in the Middle East, particularly in the United Arab Emirates, where they are being used to record traffic accidents and assist law enforcement in their investigations.

  • The director of Dubai Police's General Department of Traffic, Brigadier Saif Mohair Al Mazroui, approved the use of dashboard camera photos and videos in June 2017 to combat traffic infractions.
