According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Inertial Systems Market is accounted for $12.68 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach $19.58 billion by 2028 growing at a CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period. An inertial system on land is a self-contained inertial navigation approach that uses accelerometer and gyroscope readings to track an object's position and orientation relative to a defined starting point, velocity, and orientation. This system consists of a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver, an inertial measurement unit, or other motion-sensing sensors. These components work together to determine the exact data of an object. Furthermore, the INS includes a computing unit that analyses and tracks the measured data from inertial sensors.
Increased requirement for navigational accuracy
The necessity for exact position information, including altitude and orientation of military equipment, is critical in today's state of warfare. These parameters are required for effective target planning and implementation. Inertial navigation systems use sensors such as accelerometers and gyroscopes to provide information about the position, orientation, and speed of a moving body. Because inertial navigation systems can offer exact location information, they are increasingly being used in the defence industry. As a result of the rising weaponry of the military throughout the world and the increased necessity for navigational accuracy, the market for inertial navigation systems has grown.
High cost associated with INS
An inertial navigation system is made up of numerous components and is widely utilised in defence applications such as ships, guided munitions, military, special purpose helicopters, fighter aircraft, submarines, and short, medium, and long-range missiles. As a result, the usage of INS in critical environment conditions necessitates regular maintenance. The cost of procurement, operation, and maintenance is significant with regular maintenance.
Technological advancements in navigation
This market is driven by technological advancements in navigation, the growing aerospace industry, and the availability of solid and small components. Furthermore, rising technological breakthroughs in MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical systems) and the use of satellite navigation are two other reasons that are contributing to the market's expansion. Because of the utilisation of MEMs, manufacturers have developed more cost-effective and efficient solutions, resulting in light, compact, and low-cost navigation systems.
Error propagation
The operation of stable platform inertial navigation systems is dependent on several mechanical components at multiple joints. These joints must be frictionless to prevent any type of measurement inaccuracy. The performance of these systems is limited by friction error, which develops over time and system wear and tear. Noise, drifts, and friction can contribute to some computer errors. MEMS inertial sensors, for example, have minimum mechanical parts that weigh only a few micrograms. Because of their small weight, these components may fail to respond to slight changes in orientation. As a result, measurement inaccuracy is generated by friction and drifts that spread over time.
The pandemic outbreak has resulted in a temporary ban on commercial activity. The disruption in the process leads to limited availability of system components and a decrease in demand for unmanned vehicles for commercial operation such as testing of oil tanks, pipeline inspection, windmill inspection, and field mapping. Furthermore, during the lockdown, vital production units around the world are shut down. This has an impact on the development of inertial navigation system components, which consequently impedes the market's growth. The coronavirus's negative global consequences are already visible, and they will have a significant impact on the market in 2020.
The Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS) segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, Because of the greater integration of MEMS sensors in the navigation system. This is primarily done to increase accuracy and minimise total system weight. MEMS sensors provide advantages such as low cost, high performance, high reliability, and light weight. Microelectromechanical system technology is advancing at the quickest rate due to the increasing integration of MEMS sensors into navigation systems.
The aerospace and defense segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The aerospace and defense segment is anticipated to witness the fastest CAGR growth during the forecast period, because of the growing demand for innovative military solutions to boost the nation's safety and security. This demand will result in quick advancements in advanced missiles with the next generation of inertial navigation systems to improve performance on the Warfield. As a result of the increasing development of missiles and UAVs, the demand for INS for aerospace and defence applications is increasing.
North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. North America had the largest market share, with the United States contributing the most significantly. Because of the growing emphasis on oil exploration activities, the maritime sector is the dominant need for inertial systems in the region. Oil rig exploration requires high-performance gyroscopes, IMUs, and accelerometers to provide a self-contained sensor system and extremely accurate platform stabilisation solutions.
Asia Pacific is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period. The increase is linked to rising defence investments from emerging economies such as India, China, and others. China and India have expanded their defence spending and procurement of modern remotely operated vehicles for military applications. This growth is the result of growing defence investment by developing economies such as India and China.
