The robotic crawler camera system market size was valued at US$ 332.91 million in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 890.91 million by 2030; it is estimated to record a CAGR of 13.1% from 2022 to 2030.
Miniaturized robots are a trend in the robotic crawler camera system market growth due to their ability to access confined spaces and perform intricate tasks. Various companies are making miniaturized robots. For instance, in November 2023, Joey was developed at Britain's University of Leeds to operate in small drainage or sewer pipes (as small as 100 mm in diameter). It features wheel legs for locomotion, enabling the robot to traverse obstacles and slippery terrains. Another example is the "SnakeBot," a serpentine robot designed for pipeline inspections. Its slender and flexible design allows it to navigate through pipes and confined spaces with ease, capturing high-quality images and videos for inspection purposes. These miniaturized robots offer advantages such as improved maneuverability, reduced environmental impact, and the ability to reach previously inaccessible locations. Various companies are developing smaller robotic crawler cameras. For instance, in May 2022, robotics experts at the Manufacturing Technology Centre developed an autonomous robotic rat that can scurry along underground pipes, carrying out inspection work. The invention has the potential to save costs and improve efficiency for utility companies, as well as to reduce human exposure to hazardous environments and prevent pipework leaks. As technology advances, the trend toward smaller, more agile robots in the robotic crawler camera system market is likely to continue, enabling enhanced capabilities in various industries, including infrastructure inspection.
