Significant Market Dynamics:

Drivers

Robust growth in the smartphone and tablet market is expected to drive the growth of the global camera module market over the forecast period. Camera modules are mainly used in electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, digital cameras, webcams, and surveillance systems. However, smartphones and tablet PCs have recently witnessed huge demand. Since the beginning of camera technology, camera modules ranging from 1 million pixels to about 13 million pixels have been developed. High-resolution cameras installed in smartphones play a key role in smartphone sales. Currently, the camera is one of the most important features required to sell smartphones and tablet PCs. Consumers inquire about various features before purchasing a mobile phone or tablet PC, and camera resolution is one of them.

Continuous improvement in camera resolution is expected to propel the global camera module market growth during the forecast period. Camera modules are commonly used in numerous imaging devices in a variety of applications including consumer electronics, industrial, tablet PCs, medical sector and smartphones. The camera module market was dominated by 2-megapixel cameras until 2011. In 2012, there was a rapid shift to high-resolution cameras and camera modules with up to 5 megapixels for entry-level phones and up to 8 megapixels for premium smartphones. In 2013, the market is expected to change as most low-end camera phones have 5 megapixels and premium smartphones have 8 megapixels or more.

Market Opportunities

Acquiring new contracts with mobile manufacturers can present major business opportunities. The end users of the market are mobile phone manufacturers, tablet PC manufacturers, surveillance system manufacturers, medical device manufacturers, and the automotive industry. Among the many applications of camera modules, smartphones and tablet PCs occupy the majority of the market share. Due to the fragmented nature of the market, competition among players to obtain new contracts for the supply of camera modules is fierce.

Application growth in the automotive and defense sectors could provide lucrative growth opportunities. The automotive sector is one of the fast-growing markets for camera modules. A major factor contributing to this growth is the implementation of government regulations in several regions. Driver safety has been a major concern for governments. Government authorities and car manufacturers have taken active steps to provide driver safety and reduce the incidence of road accidents. Premium car manufacturers are launching cars with rear view camera features. For example, Audi range cars A6 and A8 equipped with a rear view camera for a better view.

Restraint

Capacity limitations of camera modules are expected to restrain the growth of the global camera module market over the forecast period. A major challenge for the market is maintaining supply and demand for camera modules for mobile phone vendors. Key players in the market, such as Samsung, Apple and Nokia, produce millions of smartphones each year. Due to the fragmented nature of the market, there is no dominant vendor. However, due to the fragmented nature of the market, there is no dominant supplier. In addition, a camera module is made by adding more than 10 parts, such as a lens, an actuator, a VCM, and an image sensor. These components are in most cases provided by third parties.

The high cost of deploying multi-camera systems in vehicles is expected to hamper the growth of the global camera module market over the forecast period. The camera modules placed in the vehicle are of high quality. Because these cameras are so expensive, only expensive cars are equipped with these features.
