Technology Segmentation Analysis

On the basis of technology, the global dashcams market is segmented into two categories, namely – single channel dashcams and dual channel dashcams.

Typically, single channel dashcams are used to record videos at the front of vehicles. Single channel dashcams are cheaper compared to dual channel dashcams and accounted for the largest revenue share. Single channel dashboard cameras are the most common type of dashcams used across the world and suitable for road trip recording application. Multi-channel cameras operates similar to single channel camera, but have multiple lenses to record separate views. Most of the multi-channel cameras are dual-channel dashcams which have one lens to record views inside the car including driver and other standard lenses to record front view outside of the car.

In 2021, single channel dashcams accounted for the largest revenue share compared to dual/multi channel dashcams. However, demand for dual channel dashcams is expected to see the fastest growth through the forecast period with rising demand from both private and commercial vehicle owners. Parents in the European countries are installing backward facing dashboard cameras to capture the behavior of their teenage drivers which is also increasing the demand for dual channel dashcams from private vehicle segment.

Asia Pacific is the largest regional market in the global dashcams market. Russian motorists are installing dashboard cameras because of heavy road traffics, frequent road accidents, corrupted police officers and unfavorable law systems. China, Australia, Japan and Southeast Asia are major dashboard camera markets in Asia Pacific region. China is the largest individual market for dashcams in Asia Pacific. China is also expected to see the fastest growth with rising awareness about the effectiveness and safety of dashboard cameras. In South Korea dashboard cameras are popular as “Black Box”. In the Rest of World region, we have considered Africa, South America and Middle East.

Dashcams are also known as dashboard cameras, digital video recorders (DVRs), accident recorders, car cameras and black box camera (popularly known in Japan). These cameras are mounted on wind shield of vehicle and continuously record incidences throughout the journey. Dashcam is commonly integrated with the car’s ignition circuit so that they record continuously when ignition key is in the run mode.

After the popularity of Russian and Korean videos published on Internet, the demand for dashcams increased in North America and Europe.

At present the use of dashcam is limited in several countries due to strict personal privacy and data protection laws. Though, the installation of dashcams is illegal in some European countries, this technology is gaining popularity in Asia Pacific, U.S. and other European countries supporting its use.

At present, the adoption rate of basic dashcams is higher than advanced dashcams. Basic dashcam offers basic functionality of video recording with removable or in-built storage device. However, considering the rising popularity of dashboard cameras and willingness of consumers to spend more on advanced solutions is influencing the demand for advanced dashcams in the matured markets particularly in Japan, Australia, South Koreas, US (in Government vehicles) and others. This is the primary reason manufacturers are focusing on developing dashboard cameras with advanced features such as audio recording, speed sensors, GPS logging, accelerometers and uninterruptable power supply.

Although, dashcams are increasingly becoming popular in many European countries, Austria and Luxembourg completely banned their use. In Austria, parliament has declared a fine of about US$ 10,800 for installing and taking videos with dashcams and for repeat offenders it would be around US$ 27,500.
