Competitive vendor landscape

The players in the market are trying to narrow the technological gaps between Western technological manufacturers and Eastern low-cost companies to drive down prices without affecting the quality. Several players in the market are scaling up operations to increase the revenue and obtain a greater market share. The automotive optic lenses in safety system market is dominated by the established players and new vendors are entering the market to tap new potential thereby intensifying the competition. Manufacturers are introducing multiple camera modules in the safety systems and marketing the products in different locations to increase their global footprint. The companies are offering various safety systems that include driver assistance systems, park assist system (PAS), surround-view systems, LDWS, and lane assist system (LAS) to meet the consumer requirements. Some of these systems introduced are integrated with radar, cameras, and sensors to enhance the safety system in the vehicle and helps minimize the risk of accidents. Companies are also investing in development and innovation of new technology to minimize the impact of collisions and fatalities. The stringent regulations and norms by the government of various countries will prompt vendors to introduce new and better safety systems during the forecast period.

Automotive manufacturers are launching systems with camera modules that enable the driver to monitor the car’s rear, left and right side, with the help of a display system on the dashboard.  The system is being designed to increase safety by eliminating blind spots and keeping driver’s attention on the road ahead. The advent of high-resolution 360-degree cameras will fuel the growth of the optic lenses in safety system market,” says Siddharth J, a lead analyst at Technavio for research on automotive electronics.
