The Automotive LiDAR Market - Global Market Share, Trends, Analysis and Forecasts, 2023-2032 provides insights on key developments, business strategies, research & development activities, supply chain analysis, competitive landscape, and market composition analysis.

Automotive LiDAR or Light Detection and Ranging is an advanced remote sensing technology used for detection of obstacles in pathway with the help of light. The distance between the obstacle and a vehicle is calculated by sensing the light reflected from an obstacle. The demand for automotive LiDAR has increased significantly over past couple of years owing to increasing investment in development of autonomous vehicles and reducing cost of LiDAR sensors.

The LiDAR manufacturers are focusing on reducing the size of LiDAR sensor in order to facilitate deployment of LiDAR sensors inside a vehicle. This is anticipated to contribute towards increased adoption of LiDAR in upcoming autonomous vehicles. Increasing investment in advanced automotive electronics and semiconductor devices is anticipated to fuel the development of automotive LiDAR in coming years.

However, the prevalence of COVID-19 across leading automotive component manufacturing countries is anticipated to hinder the growth of global automotive LiDAR market in coming years. The global automotive LiDAR market is anticipated to witness steady demand during the forecast period.
