The global unmanned ground vehicles (UGV) market size is anticipated to reach around US$ 9,300 Mn by 2027 and is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of around 15% in terms of revenue during the forecast period 2020 to 2027.
The unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) is a robotic vehicle that moves over the surface of the earth, the purpose of which is to transport or to carry anything that doesn't carry a person. The UGV provides a robotic interface and multifunctional autonomy support. In the defense sector, the main uses of vehicles provide information on tracking, holding materials, assisting in explosive activation. In fact, the engines are used for police, fire, and others in emergency services.
Market Insights
The factor that are contributing growth to the unmanned ground vehicles market is due to increasing adoption of UGV’s in defense and commercial sectors such as oil & gas, physical security, domestic and other along with rising demand of UGV’s for counter-insurgency. In addition, the growth of the market is further boosting the development of intelligent robots like UGVs for countering activities. At the other hand, the lack of advanced visual capability in UGVs could interfere with market development.
The unmanned ground vehicle has wide variety of defense applications. Such devices are known as potential military combat systems. For instance, investments in Future Combat Systems (FCS) and designs and innovations related to such technologies are the U.S. defense strategy. Different defense programs, including the Robotic Follower Advanced Technology, work with UGV devices that are able to track a resourced leading tank. In comparison, other projects, such as manually powered UGVs to support light forces and special operations missions focused on identification during military operations in urban areas, include collaborative robotic programs.
