The increasing number of smart city projects is anticipated to drive the growth of the video surveillance market in the coming years. A smart city utilizes digital technologies and data-driven solutions to enhance operational efficiency, improve quality of life, and reduce costs and resource usage. The rise in smart city development is fueled by cities seeking to use technology to address urban challenges and create more livable, sustainable, and efficient environments. Within smart cities, video surveillance plays a crucial role in strengthening public safety by monitoring and analyzing real-time data, enabling quicker incident response, and supporting overall urban security and management. For example, in January 2025, according to Coolest-gadgets, a US-based media and technology company, the number of connected smart cities globally increased to 2.2 billion in 2024 from 1.73 billion in 2023. Therefore, the growth in smart city projects is contributing significantly to the expansion of the video surveillance market.

Key players in the video surveillance market are increasingly focusing on the development of advanced products, such as smart home security cameras, to strengthen their competitive position. These modern surveillance solutions are designed for residential use and connect to home networks, typically through Wi-Fi, allowing users to remotely monitor their homes via mobile applications. For example, in July 2023, Netherlands-based technology company Koninklijke Philips N.V. launched its first range of smart home security cameras, which includes three different models along with a new Home Safety app. The cameras offer features such as full HD video quality, two-way audio communication, motion detection, night vision, and 128-bit encryption, and can be controlled through the Philips Home Safety App, which provides four different usage modes. These cameras are mainly designed for indoor applications, with options including fixed indoor security cameras and 360-degree indoor security cameras.

In October 2024, GardaWorld Security Corporation, a Canada-based security solutions provider, acquired Stealth Monitoring for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, GardaWorld sought to strengthen its AI-enabled mobile and fixed video monitoring capabilities, broaden its technology portfolio, and reinforce its presence in the global video surveillance market. Stealth Monitoring is a US-based company specializing in video surveillance solutions.
