Visible Light Range Scientific Camera Market Industry Outlook, Size, Growth Factors, and Forecast To 2028

The visible light range scientific camera market is projected to reach USD 0.6 billion by 2028 from USD 0.4 billion in 2023; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.9% from 2023 to 2028.

A scientific camera is essential for any imaging system. These cameras are designed to quantitatively measure how many photons hit the camera sensor and in which location. The visible light range scientific camera market, by type, has been segmented into sCMOS, sCMOS (Backthinned), CCD, CCD (Backthinned), and EM-CCD cameras. The different cameras and their various architectures have inherent strengths and weaknesses and these are covered in depth in this chapter.

Many surgical procedures require medical cameras, and recently, the volume of surgical procedures has considerably increased due to the rapidly expanding geriatric population worldwide and the growing prevalence of chronic diseases, leading to the increasing demand for advanced medical equipment. Many countries across the world are facing the challenge of significantly high senior populations. According to the United Nations (UN), in 2019, globally, there were 703 million persons aged 65 years or over. The senior population is estimated to double ()1.5 billion) by 2050. Non-invasive surgeries (mainly using highly advanced camera technology to carry out endoscopic and microscopic surgeries) are preferred for older people due to lesser complications and faster recovery than conventional surgeries.

There is an increasing focus on developing cutting-edge image storage solutions and sensors employed in scientific cameras. The frame rate of the high-speed camera requires more storage capacity; moreover, the panoramic technologies used in video surveillance scientific cameras demand a higher data storing capacity. With further developments in the storage technologies in the scientific camera market, such cameras will be more suitable for video surveillance and astronomy applications.

The availability of refurbished scientific medical camera products is a significant challenge to the growth of the market. Many end users (mainly small and medium-sized hospitals, ASCs (ambulatory surgery centers), and specialty clinics) look for cost-effectiveness and opt for refurbished systems, particularly in price-sensitive markets in developing countries. A few companies offering refurbished scientific medical cameras include Golden Nimbus International (India), Medicure Surgical Equipment (India), and Bimedis LLC (US). Considering these factors, the demand for refurbished scientific medical cameras is expected to increase in the coming years. These systems offer the same functionalities as new equipment but at lower costs. Therefore, introducing refurbished products in the market could hamper the growth of a company offering new scientific medical cameras, challenging overall market growth.
