AI and ML are now being utilised in helping the company make better business decisions, to automate some operations and even in the delivery of services to customers. There are potential uses across multiple industries including healthcare, finance, and retail to name a few of the more popular areas, from predictive analysis to advanced robotics. AI technologies are also driving the advancement of data solutions improvement as it provides organizations with more profound understanding and increases the efficiency of the processes.

Key factors that influence the market are technology, the rising customers’ demand for new products, and growing competition. Technological advances especially in areas like AI and the Internet of things have really drove the market and how new products or services could be delivered. The demands of consumers for personalized and efficient products and services exert pressures for organizations to improve on their products on a consistent basis. Also, the high level of competition and increased customer demand pressures organizations into adopting modern technology and enhancing productivity to meet the customers’ demands. These factors summarized below mean that the market is constantly shifting an evolving with high growth rates. The above-mentioned factors are driving the electronic flight bag market growth.

Comprehensive Analysis Electronic Flight Bag Market

The electronic flight bag (EFB) market is divided by type, component, and aircraft, which are discussed in the following sections. Depending on the specifics used to classify EFBs there are portable category, Class 1, Class 2 and installed category. A portable EFB is personal and applied to handheld devices; Class 1 and Class 2 EFBs define different degrees of integration – Class 1 is close to a tablet and Class 2 is more elaborate. Standalone EFBs are connected to an aircraft’s avionics systems while retrofit EFBs are incorporated into the airplanes systems. Subsystems are divided into hardware which include Class 1, Class 2 and Class 3 hardware and software implying the hierarchy of operation and operational integration. Platforms are again divided into commercial and military because requirements and uses EFBs differ in commercial and military industries of avatar.

North America is by far the highest revenue generating region in the electronic flight bag (EFB) market share at the moment. The region reigns thanks to developed aviation complex, high rates of technologies usage, and exponential investments in radical solutions. It is complemented by the presence of key aerospace manufacturers and a developed system of regulation of the market. Furthermore, rising need for better cockpit organization and safety measures across commercial and military aviation segments strengthens North America’s leading position in the international EFB market.

Key players in this sector include Airbus SAS (Netherlands), The Boeing Company (U.S.), Collins Aerospace (U.S.), L3Harris Technologies Inc. (U.S.), Thales Group (France), CMC Electronics Inc. (Canada), Jeppesen (U.S.)

2023 saw a new development in the electronic flight bag (EFB) in the way of predictive analytical capabilities powered by AI offered by Collins Aerospace. This new feature which is incorporated into their class 2 EFB systems is a machine learning algorithm that analyses a lot of flight data in real-time. The elements of the intelligent system help pilots to have alerts on maintenance, identify efficient routes for the flight and have better and more accurate weather prognosis which will increase operational efficiency and safety. This innovation brings a new revolution in the cockpit concept; it will be more proactive and provide more data to the aviation personnel.
