Among these, smartphone cameras accounted for largest market share in 2022. The smartphone camera lens market is moderately competitive. It appears to be mildly concentrated, moving toward the fragmented stage due to the presence of many large and small players in the market. Some of the major market players include Ability Opto-Electronics Technology Co. Ltd., AAC Technologies, Cowell Optics, IM Co. Ltd., and Kantatsu Co. Ltd., among others. These companies keep innovating and entering into strategic partnerships to retain their market share.
Global Computational Photography Market by Application
Based on application, It is segmented into, 3D Imaging, AR, VR, MR, The closure of manufacturing plants in the regions has resulted in a significant loss of business and revenue for the regions under lockdown. The disruption in global supply chains has negatively impacted the sales of products, delivery schedules, and manufacturing, which led to a notable drop in sales of 3D imaging devices and services. Nevertheless, the ongoing technological developments in the field of 3D imaging and the widespread adoption of and need for 3D imaging systems in different sectors are expected to drive the market in the coming future. Additionally, the increasing frequency of chronic diseases worldwide and growing awareness regarding the benefits of 3D imaging technology, such as a precise visual portrayal of internal organs that reduces tissue damage and the quality of data provided by various medical imaging methods, are among the factors driving the demand for 3D imaging solutions. The high cost of these sensors and a lack of knowledge about how to implement 3D imaging are expected to limit growth.
Geographical Analysis of Global Computational Photography Market
Region-wise, it is studied across North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the Rest of the World. North America held the largest market share of xx% in 2022. The growth of the smartphone market mainly drives the progress of the computational photography market in North America. Moreover, the presence of market leaders, such as Alphabet, Apple Inc., Light, NVIDIA Corporation, and Qualcomm Inc., is also contributing significantly to the growth of the market in North America. With the craze and wait of the new iPhone among the public in the United States, iPhone inhibits the growth of computational photography. In September 2019, Apple released the iPhone 11, where its Deep Fusion photography system arrived as part of Apple’s newest developer beta of iOS 13, version 13.2 beta 1. The Deep Fusion is a new image processing pipeline for medium-light images known as computational photography. Machine vision can use computational photography when higher quality imaging with less maintenance is desired. In recent years, the United States experienced rapid growth in machine vision systems, specifically in areas of advanced manufacturing.
According to AIA (Association for Advancing Automation), the overall North American machine vision market grew from USD1.8 billion in sales in 2010 to USD 2.07 billion till September 2019, including smart cameras sales. Further, the North American machine vision systems market is expected to grow to USD 14 billion by 2025. Driving this growth is the need for improved product inspection and quality control in the manufacturing sector, as well as the growing demand for smarter collaborative robots in manufacturing and warehousing. These factors tend to grow the market of computational photography.
Major Players in the Global Computational Photography Market
The key players in the Computational Photography Market Apple, Samsung, Nvidia, Qualcomm, Adobe, Nikon, Sony, LG, Light, and Canon.
COVID-19 Impact:
With the effect of COVID-19 impact, the production of smartphones for the first half of 2020 is expected to drop drastically. The chipmaker, Qualcomm Inc., says that the coronavirus outbreak globally, it poses a potential threat to the mobile phone industry, with a possible impact on manufacturing and sales. Globally, semiconductor revenues are expected to decline by nearly 2 to 3% in 2020. Further, it disrupted the supply chain with some smartphone brands such as Sony, Samsung, who announced the integration of Qualcomm's Snapdragon 865 AI-enabled (has a camera architecture that should advance computational photography). This leads to the delay in the production as it is unpredictable currently when the pandemic gets over.
Recent Developments:
In April 2020 - Xiaomi announced to integrate a 144-megapixel camera phone, where the predecessors of these two phones, Mi 10 Pro and Mi CC9 Pro, had 108-megapixel cameras. The phones employ computational photography and further prioritizes to improve its computational photography features.
In October 2019, Arm Limited, renamed its 4-TOPS Arm ML NPU as the Ethos-N77 and launched small-footprint, low-power Ethos-N57 (2-TOPS), and Ethos-N37 (1-TOPS) models for edge AI-supported with the Linux-based Arm NN SDK.
In July 2019, Nvidia demonstrated prescription smart glasses that use augmented reality to improve a persons vision. Instead of replacing prescription glasses every few years, augmented reality prescription eyeglasses can simply adjust the vision of each lens to adapt to a person’s changing eyesight. This implementation can inhibit high growth in the market.
In September 2019, Apple released the iPhone 11, where its Deep Fusion photography system arrived as part of Apple’s newest developer beta of iOS 13, version 13.2 beta 1. The Deep Fusion is a new image processing pipeline for medium-light images known as computational photography.
