Key Growth Drivers

  • The rising cases of terrorist attacks globally every year are making governments focus and spend more on their security services to protect their citizens from such attacks which is one of the major factors propelling the Night Vision Device market growth.
  • According to Global Terrorism Index 2022 data, there were 5,226 terrorist attacks globally in 2021, an increase of 17% from 2020.
  • The availability of a variety of night vision devices such as riflescopes, goggles, cameras, and binoculars & monocular are providing the potential customers to purchase a product of their own choices based on their requirements which are driving the market as the companies are trying to offer products to cater to the demands of the end users.
  • One of the leading players in the market Thales has been able to sell more than 70,000 units of its Lucie night vision goggles since its launch in 1995.
  • The high costs associated with night vision devices are one of the biggest challenges to the growth of the market.
  • For example, the night vision multipurpose monocular device offered by one of the major players in the market, American technologies Network corp., can cost anywhere in the range of ~US$4,000 to ~US$5,000.
  • The Covid-19 pandemic had a positive influence on the growth of the market for night vision devices as it helped authorities monitor the citizens and the situation in a better way.
  • For example, the United States Defense Department used thermal imaging techniques to check the elevated body temperatures of a person entering its military facilities to detect Covid-19 while allowing a safe distance between the operator and the individual.

Key Trends by Market Segment

By Device Type: Goggles segment holds the largest share of the Global Night Vision Device Market in 2021.

  • Goggles category dominates the night vision devices market by device type as they use image enhancement technology and are able to provide a good image by amplifying the available light.
  • The rise in research and development investment and increase in demand from military and defense sectors are driving its demand.
  • In 2021, the American armed forces started using night-vision goggles which have augmented reality features. The Enhanced Night Vision Goggle-Binocular or ENVG-B uses an augmented reality overlay and combines thermal images with low light.
  • The Camera segment is expected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period mainly due to their low maintenance cost and ability to reduce glare from harsh light sources.

By Geography: North America accounts for the largest share among all Regions within the total Night Vision Device market in 2021.

  • The security threats to countries like US and Canada coupled with the rising demand to bolster their internal securities 24/7 are driving the market growth of the North American market. The constant threat of cross-border human and drug trafficking for this region is also helping the market to grow.
  • In September 2021, the US Army gave orders worth US$ 100 Mn to L3Harris Technologies to provide it the state-of-the-art night vision goggles. Till now the company has received orders worth US$442 Mn to deliver the night vision goggles and has provided more than 6,000 such goggles to the US Army.
  • In April 2022, Americal Technology Network Corp. got approval from the U.S. government and delivered night vision devices to the Ukrainian army for its ongoing war with Russia.
  • The Asia Pacific region is expected to grow at the fastest CAGR during the forecasted period 2022-2028, owing to the government’s investments in location-based devices, public transport systems, and the rising military and defense budgets.
