The Evolution of Traffic Cameras: Forecasting Global Trends to 2027

 Traffic camera is a device which is equipped with sophisticated smart electronic hardware component capable of delivering high quality image and videos in challenging condition and short exposure time. Traffic cameras are installed on expressways, highways, freeways, tunnels, and arterial roads for surveillance and are interlinked with optical fibers.

These traffic cameras contain a sensing device that collects real-time information by recording a video and transmitting it to a network node that is then passed to a monitoring center in a compressed format. Different types of traffic cameras are available in the market which includes traffic violation cameras, surveillance camera, average speed cameras, speed detection cameras, and red-light cameras.

The global traffic camera market size is expected to grow from USD XX billion in 2022 to USD XX billion by 2027, at a CAGR of XX%. are the key factors boosting the growth of the market. Some of the key factors propelling the market growth includes increasing number of smart city project in developing economies, concerns among the government related to public safety and rise in number of vehicles coupled with insufficient infrastructure.

Moreover, an increase in the penetration of analytics software is expected to offer remunerative opportunities for the expansion of the market during the forecast period. High expenses associated with equipment installation, and security threats and hacker challenges are expected to restrain the market growth.

Drivers: Several benefits and advantages associated with deploying traffic camera

Traffic cameras provides highly accurate automated reading of vehicles’ plates, limit human manual review, and automate the processing of traffic monitoring tasks. Traffic monitoring cameras can be used for many purposes such as tracking the movement of criminals (as a crime deterrent), preventing dangerous situations, collecting data for activities like vehicle insurance control, vehicle tracking, and traffic analysis among others.

Traffic monitoring cameras are equipped with Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) which is an AI-based technology capable of reading and recording vehicle license plates without the need for human assistance. ANPR solutions are used for traffic big data collection, tolling management, enforcement, access control, security, and traffic management including plate reading, vehicle identification & classification.

Opportunities: Innovative red light camera systems for combined speed and red-light enforcement

The red-light camera systems are based on state-of-the-art radar technology and induction loops combined with high-resolution cameras. The systems enable multiple lanes to be monitored simultaneously.

Different speed limits can also be set for different vehicle types, e.g., cars and trucks. Manufacturers are offering devices that can be used flexibly for various purposes and at different types of location.

Red light violations, illegal turning, driving in the wrong lanes and speeding are the main causes of fatal road traffic accidents, especially at junctions. By deploying innovative and individually adapted red light camera systems, traffic can be monitored efficiently, and infringements can be prosecuted while saving on resources. Intelligent red light camera systems are being increasingly deployed for speed enforcement and increasing traffic safety.

Challenges: High upfront cost of advanced traffic camera systems

Modern traffic cameras are integrated with artificial intelligence technology, various sensors, and various other advanced technologies. These sensors and technologies allow the camera to capture and record images and videos with more clarity.

The sensors integrated into these cameras can even detect motion and automatically turn towards the source of the movement. Due to integration of number of smart devices in traffic camera for real time monitoring and analysis the upfront cost of installation is on higher side. This in turn is expected to act as a restraining factor for the growth of traffic camera market in short to medium term.

Key Market Players

The traffic camera market is highly competitive, with the presence of several giant companies, and small and startup companies.  Major players operating in the traffic camera market have witnessed consistent revenue growth from 2016 to 2021. Various companies are deploying different strategies to excel in the traffic camera market.

They are trying to broaden their revenue stream by adopting organic and inorganic business strategies such as product launches, acquisitions, collaborations, contracts, and agreements, which have helped companies enhance their products and expand their geographic reach. Canon, Inc., Teledyne Technologies, Inc., Siemens AG, Jenoptik AG, Sensys Gatso Group AB, Kapsch TrafficCom AG (Datax Handelsgmbh), Hangzhou Hikvision Digital Technology Co., Ltd., IDEMIA SAS (Advent International, Inc.), Tattile, E Com Systems, and Allied Vision Technologies GmbH. are some of the key players in the traffic camera market globally.
