Dash Cam Market: Growth Drivers

Increasing number of traffic collisions and auto burglaries to drive market growth

The prevalence of dashboard cameras is a result of the constant rise in the number of theft and traffic accident events worldwide. When the car is involved in an incident or a high-stress event, dashcam footage gives a proper knowledge of who is responsible for crashes. This can lower insurance premiums and expedite the filing of insurance claims. A dashboard camera's ability to catch thieves and drivers at fault for parking lot accidents is another notable benefit. These advantages lead to a rise in demand, which improves revenue creation. With an increase in auto thefts over the past few years, the global dashboard camera market has been growing quickly. As a result of this expanding number, several governments have made dash cam installation mandatory, spurring the expansion of the sector. Over the next few years, it's anticipated that a rise in auto theft will drive up demand for dashboard cameras in vehicles.

Dash Cam Market: Restraints

Regulations and privacy issues to hamper the market expansion

When concerns about airbag malfunctions were made, automakers began utilizing digital recorders. This action was used to advance airbag technology and shield the company from liabilities. The unintended benefit of dashboard camera data could result from the rising computerization of automobiles, sophisticated electronics, and data sharing between vehicles and connected gadgets. The majority of dashboard camera systems either come with built-in GPS or have a place to attach an external GPS module. These GPS modules are used by telecommunications providers to log location data over time and save it in their database. If user-sensitive location information is exploited or gets into the wrong hands, personal security may be jeopardized. Additionally, under some conditions, certain laws permit third parties, such as governmental organizations, to access data without the user's consent. It is anticipated that several European countries' bans on dashboard cams will adversely affect market expansion. Some nations believe that the dashboard camera violates peoples' right to privacy because it secretly records members of the public without their knowledge.

Dash Cam Market: Regional Landscape

Europe will dominate the market due to an increase in sales of automobiles

Europe had the greatest share in the global dash cam market in 2021. This can be related to the growing use of dash cams by Russian drivers to protect their automobiles.
