360-Degree Camera Market by Connectivity Type (Wired and Wireless), Resolution (HD and UHD), Vertical (Media & Entertainment, Consumer, Military & Defense, Travel & Tourism, Automotive, Commercial, Healthcare), and Geography - Global Forecast to 2023
[134 Pages Report] The 360-degree camera market was valued at USD 347.7 million in 2017 and is expected to reach USD 1.56 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 27.1% between 2018 and 2023.
The 360-degree cameras are the omnidirectional camera systems where a view in each direction is recorded simultaneously. These videos are usually recorded using either a single consumer camera or a rig that has multiple camera lenses integrated into the device. All captured footage is combined into one spherical video piece either by the camera or video editing software. Single/standalone 360-degree cameras typically have multiple lenses that capture and automatically stitch content within the device. These cameras are simpler to use and are cheaper. The 360-degree camera rigs have multiple cameras, which record content separately, and are more expensive and heavier than the single cameras. Stitching the content together after the production of videos through these rigs usually requires advanced software.
Consumer vertical to hold the largest size of the 360-degree camera market during the forecast
The 360-degree cameras eliminate the necessity to install multiple traditional cameras to obtain wide coverage, which, in turn, helps reduce installation time and cost and increases situational awareness. The use of these cameras is also increasing in various applications such as sports, photography, festivals, and events, which provides growth opportunities for the 360-degree camera market.
Media and entertainment to exhibit high growth in 360-degree camera market during the forecast period
The 360-degree camera rigs are mainly used in movie-making. The 360-degree camera rigs combine multiple cameras, which helps create unprecedented 360-degree visuals. These rigs are relatively convenient to operate and extremely robust for a wide range of shooting situations.
North America to hold the largest size of the 360-degree camera market during the forecast period
The inclination of consumers to adopt technologically advanced products and the presence of a large number of players manufacturing standalone cameras, as well as rigs, are the major factors contributing to the growth of the market in North America.
Market Dynamics
Driver Affordable prices of 360-degree cameras
A 360-degree camera allows the users to capture every bit of the events for viewers. The users can easily buy their 360-degree cameras to capture a full view of the surroundings, as these cameras are now available at affordable prices. The integration of these cameras with mobile devices and growing preference for watching real-time 4K and HDR content are boosting the demand for 360-degree cameras. The major social networking platforms, such as Facebook and YouTube, support the 360-degree camera content, which encourages the users to create and share their 360-degree videos on these networking sites.
Restraint: Need for large bandwidth to stream high-quality 360-degree videos
There is an increasing demand for high-resolution monitoring and faster frame rates for the better-quality images in verticals such as media and entertainment, and sports. With the introduction of 360-degree cameras, large bandwidth has become a necessity to stream high-quality 360-degree videos. Compared to standard 2D videos, bandwidth consumed by 360-degree videos is 45 times larger. Being omnidirectional, 360-degree cameras tend to capture images from all directions. Moreover, for providing a good, immersive experience to users, the photos or videos need to have higher resolution, such as 4K or more than 4K. Higher the resolution, superior is the quality of 360-degree videos, which makes increase the file size. This raises the need for larger bandwidth to stream high-quality 360-degree videos.
Opportunity: Surge in the use of 360-degree cameras in the automotive sector
360-degree cameras are rapidly gaining popularity in the automotive sector. The use of 360-degree cameras in vehicles would benefit the drivers with a better understanding of the vehicles surroundings, assistance while driving, obstruction awareness, and overall automotive safety. The 360-degree cameras capture images from all angles and display those on the cars LCD display. 360-degree dash cameras are also gaining popularity as these could provide solid evidence in case of collisions or accidents. Such cameras are available in different shapes, sizes, and models with unique features. Falcon Zero F360, WISEUP 360-Degree Dash Cam, Falcon 4-Camera 1080p Trucker Dash System, and Morefine 3600 Car Camera are some of the best-featured cameras available for vehicles.
Challenge: Parallax effect and other difficulties while capturing small objects
Since the 360-degree camera rigs are too large, filming small objects or models using these cameras from a short distance becomes difficult. In a regular 360-degree setup, multiple lenses are placed close to each other in ball-shaped/disk-shaped hardware to get the full coverage of the surrounding. The distance between the cameras does not matter for larger sets, especially while capturing objects from normal distances. The challenges mostly arise while shooting for smaller setups and capturing the objects from extremely smaller distances. The separation between the cameras creates glitches in the images, leading to the parallax effect.
