With the global automotive market for LiDAR expected to grow to $2.8 Billion by 2027 — use ReportLinker’s learning algorythm trained for MI to overview the advances in LiDAR sensors, evaluate the market growth projections and gain market insights into the competition to capitalize on these new opportunities.
Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology is becoming increasingly popular in self-driving cars due to its reliability and accuracy – the two most important drivers of safety in autonomous vehicles (AVs). LiDAR bounces lasers off objects at extremely high rates—millions of pulses every second—to generate three-dimensional images of its surroundings. The ability to ‘see’ physical assets clearly in 3D gives it an edge over competing technologies such as radars and cameras.
Industry analysts state the global automotive market for LiDAR, amid the COVID-19 crisis, is set to hit a revised size of $780 Million by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 25.2% since 2020. The Global LiDAR Market is set to stand at a larger $2.8 Billion by 2027.
Access to in-depth research, data, and analytics on LiDAR can provide you a competitive edge in the market.
Sourcing relevant information on developing technologies like LiDAR is complex. There is little or no access to open or public data by international or national institutions. The only access to them is through private and expensive reports.
ReportLinker uses advanced search capabilities to give you access to a wealth of relevant information. The Smart Insights feature delivers key insights gleaned via industry-leading intelligent search capabilities and using Natural Language Processing (NLP), as shown in Figure 1. The intelligent search algorithm throws up in-depth reports specific to your query, including the latest news reports.

For example, a search for insights into LiDAR’s projected growth includes not only the regular forecasts but also revised projections amid the COVID-19 crisis. In Figure 2, the article mentions that the Automotive LiDAR market was expected to reach USD 1092.5 Million by 2027, while Figure 3 considers the revised rate of USD 780.6 Million amid the global crisis.

The search categories have additional filter options such as country, topic, and publication date, to draw up only the most relevant data for you (Figure 4).
Once the information pertinent to your market analysis is identified, ReportLinker provides four options:

One of the greatest advantages of LiDAR over its competitors is its ability to generate images up to an accuracy of two centimeters – at the speed of light. Neither radars nor cameras can claim to be as exact. The current LiDAR sensors are so advanced that they can detect pedestrians, figure out what direction they are facing, and predict where they will walk. This level of precision allows it to even see hand signals from bicyclists and drive accordingly, making it the next best thing to human eyes. It’s no surprise that manufacturers are pouring money into its research.
Keeping a tab on the leading market players investing in LiDAR gives you a better position to evaluate the areas that represent the best opportunities. One way to navigate the most relevant research areas is using specific keywords such as “LiDAR manufacturer”.
In this instance, the search throws up engine-generated economic reports on companies including Lumotive and Alphabet Inc. They reveal that while the Bill Gates-funded startup Lumotive is developing a LiDAR system that aims to significantly improve the performance, reliability, and cost of the system, the Waymo funded Alphabet Inc is manufacturing its own LiDAR sensors to bring down the unit price and create unprecedented disruption in the market.

The LiDAR age is here, and its sensors are being used across various industries and fields, including agriculture, astronomy, archaeology, climate monitoring, city planning, meteorology, mining, and more. Developers are looking at smart cities with LiDAR sensors on robo-taxis, self-driving trucks, delivery drones, parking garages, mass transit, traffic lights, and utility poles.
The list is long, but the sectors that are forecast to be the most promising for LiDAR applications can be graphically viewed using the NLP sector tags, as shown in Figure 5.
