Gesture recognition and touchless sensing market dynamics.
Driver: Growth in digitalization and rise in technological advancements across industry verticals
Applications of gesture recognition technology spread across a variety of high-growth industries, from consumer electronics to healthcare. In the healthcare domain, wearable sensors were used for applications such remote control of medical devices, gesture-based navigation in X-ray and MRI displays without touching them, and even improvement in patients’ daily activities through intuitive gestures. Similarly, in the gaming industry, gestures are used as commands, enabling an intuitive and natural way of application use, recognizing intentional and unintentional movements to provide a smooth gaming experience. In consumer electronics, smartphones, tablets, and laptops are some of applications where use of gesture recognition is increasing for easy control. Moreover, gesture recognition technology is likely to grow significantly in automotive vertical on the back of ever growing vehicle safety regulations to reduce driver distraction.
Restraint: High replacement expenses and user resistance to new products
One major market growth restraint is customer satisfaction with the older biometric products. Many end users, such as those in commercial applications, banking, and finance, use biometric systems for authentication and identification purposes. Most end users are unwilling to replace the existing system for reasons such as the high expense associated with replacement and satisfaction with the performance of the existing ones. Similarly, the concern of being tracked without users’ knowledge by the government and other organizations is also expected to hamper the market’s growth. A significant share of the population is skeptical about giving biometric samples. However, this belief is already losing grip. It is expected to completely fade within five years as all major transactions and citizen registrations will be based on biometric authentication systems. Countries adopting touchless biometric systems on a large scale are the US, Canada, Germany, France, India, Japan, and South Korea.
Opportunities: Adoption of gesture recognition and touchless sensing technologies in the smart home market
Home automation is achieved using gestures to control appliances. Switching on TV, lights, and music systems in smart homes can be done with the help of gesture recognition technology. Devices will be operable through specific human gestures. Using Kinect (Microsoft) as an assistive technology at home was also popular, especially in activity monitoring, telerehabilitation, and elderly care. The system continuously monitors users and detects bad postures. Logs can be accessed via mobile devices to see their progress. Kinect is the Ambient Wall, a smart home system that allows users to control the television, air conditioning, and others through an interface projected on a wall. Moreover, Samsung offers gesture control smart TVs, which has gesture recognition range within 3.5m of the camera. Further, Xiaomi offers automatic smart lock with a touchless sensing features. The growth of the smart homes market is creating lucrative opportunities for the players operating in the gesture recognition and touchless sensing market.
Challenges: High costs and complex framework of product technologies
Products offered in the gesture recognition and touchless sensing market are relatively expensive compared with conventional touch-based biometric devices. These products are accurate, fast, and error- free. As the adoption of touchless sensing products is expected to increase in the coming years, the average selling price (ASP) will likely decline. However, in the current market scenario, various research and development activities are underway to acquire sophisticated touchless devices across multiple industries, including healthcare, residential, commercial, and automobile. Thus, the high price of touchless sensing devices is expected to be the major challenge in the market during the forecast period.
