Automotive Driver Drowsiness Detection System Market Size, Share & Industry Analysis, By Product Type (Hardware Devices, Software System), By Vehicle Type (Passenger Cars, Commercial Vehicles) and Regional Forecast, 2024-2032

Automotive driver drowsiness detection system is a vehicle safety technology which is based on the algorithm. This system records the driver’s steering behaviour when the trip begins. It recognizes the variations in the driving pattern such as quick and abrupt steering movements, pressure on acceleration paddle and also detects the level of fatigue of the driver. The rate of road accidents is increasing every year. Drowsiness of the driver, drink and drive are some of the main reasons for road accidents. Nowadays, the drivers refrain from taking breaks during long trips, thereby increasing the risk of road accidents. The automotive manufacturing companies are working towards developing safety systems to curb the increasing ratio of road fatalities. Moreover, the government is imposing stringent regulations towards driver and passenger safety and also taking various initiatives to reduce road accidents.

Key Players Covered:

Some of the prominent companies that are present in the global automotive driver drowsiness detection system market include Robert Bosch GmbH, Continental AG, Valeo , Hella GmbH & Co. KGaA, Autoliv Inc., Denso Corporation, Magna International Inc., Aisin Seiki Co., Ltd., and TRW Automotive among others.           

Market Segmentation:

The global automotive driver drowsiness detection system (DDDS) market has been segmented into product type, vehicle type, and region. By product type, the market is further segmented into hardware devices and software system. The hardware devices include eye blink sensor, alcohol sensor and other sensors. The eye blink sensor detects the blinking of the driver and if the driver seems sleepy or drowsy, the sensor warns by buzzing alarms. The alcohol sensor detects the concentration of alcohol in the driver’s breathe. Substances like isobutene, alcohol, smoke, and propane are sensed buy the sensor. If the any of the substances are sensed by the sensor, the system rings the warning alarm in the vehicle. The rising cases of drink and drive are leading to road accidents. The software tools helps to drive the working of the system precisely and efficiently. The manufacturing companies are working continuously to upgrade and innovate new technologies in safety systems of the vehicles. In terms of vehicle type, the automotive drowsiness driver detection system market can be classified into passenger cars and commercial vehicles. The commercial vehicle segment dominates the DDDS market. The commercial vehicles are mostly used for long distances trips on the daily basis. The increasing urbanization, expansion in industrialization, mining, construction sites are the foremost reasons for the growth in the sale of commercial vehicles. The truck or bus drivers mostly travel for a longer period of time which makes them sleepy and drowsy. This factor is increasing the demand for driver drowsiness detection system in commercial vehicles. The passenger car segment is also showing an exponential growth in the market owing to the rising concerns towards vehicle safety, driver and passenger safety, and increasing road accidents. Also, the improvement in road infrastructures, rise in the disposable income has given a boost to travelling long distances thereby increasing the need for this system.

Regional Analysis:

Geographically, the automotive driver drowsiness detection system market has been segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and the rest of the world. North America holds the largest share of the global driver drowsiness detection system market owing to the high volume of commercial vehicles in this region. The government has also imposed stringent regulations regarding road safety and made it mandatory for all the automotive manufacturing companies to install the DDDS in every vehicle. Moreover, the increasing adoption of advanced technologies in vehicles is propelling the growth of the market in this region. The Asia Pacific is also expected to show a significant growth in the DDDS market owing to the increasing number of sales and production of vehicles in this regions. Some of the developing economies such as India, China and Japan are rapidly adopting the advanced technology to develop safety systems in vehicles. Also, the increasing inclination of people towards the enhanced safety features in vehicles is fuelling the growth of the DDDS market in this region.
