The growing demand for robots is expected to drive the expansion of the indoor robotics-navigation LiDAR market. Robots are self-navigating systems used in warehouses, factories, and other indoor environments to transport goods, optimize workflows, and enhance operational efficiency. The demand for robots is increasing as industries embrace automation to address rising labor costs, workforce shortages, and the need for faster order fulfillment in sectors such as e-commerce and manufacturing. Indoor robotics navigation LiDAR plays a key role by providing precise real-time mapping and obstacle detection, enabling robots to safely and autonomously navigate complex indoor environments. For example, in February 2024, The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) reported that 158,000 service robots were sold for professional use in 2022, a 48% increase from 106,757 units in 2021. This surge in robot demand is, therefore, a significant driver for the growth of the indoor robotics-navigation LiDAR market.

Leading companies in the indoor robotics navigation LiDAR market are advancing technology by developing integrated perception LiDAR systems to improve navigation accuracy, reduce system complexity, and lower deployment costs. These systems combine solid-state LiDAR hardware with embedded perception software, enabling robots to detect, classify, and track objects on board without needing external processing units. For example, in April 2025, Opsys Technologies, an Israel-based LiDAR technology company, introduced the ALTOS LiDAR platform, which offers range variants of 70, 150, and 300 meters. The platform integrates perception software directly into the sensor, enhancing situational awareness by providing real-time 3D object recognition, simplifying deployment through Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) connectivity, and ensuring reliability in extreme temperatures from -30°C to +65°C. Additionally, the product meets NDAA compliance.

In March 2025, RoboSense, a China-based provider of AI-driven LiDAR perception solutions, partnered with LionsBot International Pte Ltd to improve the visual perception capabilities of intelligent cleaning robots. This collaboration aims to enhance the robots’ ability to perceive and navigate in diverse environments, expanding their use cases and accelerating the transformation of the global cleaning industry. LionsBot International, based in Singapore, specializes in developing intelligent autonomous cleaning robots.

Note that the outlook for this market is being affected by rapid changes in trade relations and tariffs globally. The report will be updated prior to delivery to reflect the latest status, including revised forecasts and quantified impact analysis. The report’s Recommendations and Conclusions sections will be updated to give strategies for entities dealing with the fast-moving international environment.

The rapid rise in U.S. tariffs and the subsequent trade frictions in spring 2025 are having a major impact on the electrical and electronics sector, with semiconductors, display panels, and rare-earth metals (essential for batteries and motors) subject to steep duties. Consumer electronics brands face profit erosion, as competitive markets limit their ability to pass costs to buyers. Industrial electronics manufacturers, meanwhile, grapple with delayed projects due to shortages of tariff-impacted components like printed circuit boards. Companies are responding by relocating assembly to tariff-exempt countries, increasing inventory buffers, and redesigning products to reduce dependency on restricted materials.
