Global InGaAs Camera Market: Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028

The global InGaAs camera market size reached US$ 116.5 Million in 2022. Looking forward, the market is expected to reach US$ 172.9 Million by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.80% during 2022-2028.

An InGaAs camera is an optical instrument made using an alloy of indium arsenide (InAs) and gallium arsenide (GaAs). It is a dark-noise-limited device with a lower bandgap that avoids unwanted fluorescence backgrounds and investigates deeply into sample surfaces. It enables researchers to work at longer wavelengths in the near-infrared (NIR) and shortwave infrared (SWIR) regions of the spectrum. Consequently, it finds wide applications in the nanotube fluorescence, emission, absorption, small animal imaging, nondestructive testing, and singlet oxygen detection. Apart from this, it is extensively utilized in several industrial applications for humidity measurements, surface film distributions, and the separation of materials.

InGaAs Camera Market Trends

At present, there is an increase in the utilization of InGaAs cameras in industrial automation across the globe. This can be attributed to the rising usage of machine vision systems that rely on these cameras for capturing and analyzing images. Additionally, InGaAs cameras are increasingly being deployed in vision-guided robots to improve their effectiveness and overall value for the business. Besides this, they are small, uncooled, lightweight and offer high-quality night vision, attached covert eye-safe lasers, target recognition, and sensitivity to nightglows. As they can also see reflected light and provide close representations of what is seen in the visible spectrum compared to long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) and mid-wave infrared (MWIR) images, they find a wide array of applications in the defense and military sector worldwide. Furthermore, they are employed in the food and beverage (F&B) industry on account of their ability to sort and recycle waste and remove extraneous vegetable matter and foreign materials from fresh and frozen vegetables. This, along with the growing utilization of InGaAs cameras in the semiconductor industry, is impelling the market growth.
