Global Unmanned Ground Vehicle Market 2016-2023: Key Players are Egemin Automation, Swisslog, Seegrid, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, IROBOT, Robo-Team & SMP Robotic

Dublin, April 18, 2017 -- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Unmanned Ground Vehicle Market - Analysis and Forecast (2016-2023) (Focus on Major Locomotion Types, Mode of Operations & Applications)" report to their offering.

The global unmanned ground vehicle market was estimated at $2,535.36 million in 2016 and is expected to reach $9.06 billion by 2023

The market is projected to grow at a fast pace with increasing adoption of the unmanned ground vehicles across different commercial and defense applications. In commercial applications, material handling has been one of the most labor intensive tasks in any manufacturing or warehouse facility. They consume both labor and time leading to cost overruns. However, in case of defense and security applications, operations like explosive handling are challenging and life threatening tasks.

The changing dynamics of global economy and geopolitics are acting as obstacles to the development of both businesses as well as the overall security environment as the countries try to maintain economic growth and political stability. Hence the demand for unmanned ground vehicles is projected to grow over the forecast period.

North America is currently dominating the unmanned ground vehicle market; however, the geographical analysis of this market unveils a great potential for growth in the Asian countries.

According to analysis, the U.K will grow at a faster rate; comprising a majority of the revenue followed by Germany and France. However, the demand across the Asian economies like China, India, Japan and South Korea will set the pace of the global unmanned ground vehicle market in APAC region.

Key players in the global unmanned ground vehicle market have been following both organic and inorganic strategies to strengthen their businesses and expand their product portfolio. Interestingly, inorganic strategies like acquisitions maintain a fine balance with organic strategies such as product launches owing to demand for products.

Egemin Automation, Swisslog, Seegrid, Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, IROBOT, Robo-Team, SMP Robotic etc. are some of the key players in the global unmanned ground vehicle market.
