DUBLIN, Oct. 31, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The "Inertial Navigation System Market: Global Industry Trends, Share, Size, Growth, Opportunity and Forecast 2023-2028" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global inertial navigation system (INS) market, which achieved a size of US$ 10.8 billion in 2022, is projected to witness substantial growth in the coming years. Analysts anticipate the market to reach US$ 15.4 billion by 2028, registering a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 6.37% during the period from 2023 to 2028.

Inertial Navigation Systems (INS) are navigation systems that calculate an object's velocity, gravitational force, and directional orientation. These computer-based systems incorporate motion sensors, accelerometers, and gyroscopes. Gyroscopes measure the angular velocity of objects like drones, ships, and aircraft, while accelerometers gauge changes in their speed. Using these data, the system estimates an object's direction and relative position. INS finds widespread applications in various sectors, including military weaponry, gaming, cameras, computers, and medical devices.

Key Market Trends Driving Growth

Growing Demand for Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs): The rising need for UUVs, utilized in activities such as oil and gas exploration, scientific research, and defense operations, is a primary growth driver. UUVs are deployed for tasks like mine deactivation, counterattacks, port security, and hull inspection in defense. In scientific research, underwater drones assist in oceanographic studies and ocean bed mapping. Furthermore, the increasing oil consumption has led to the use of UUVs for oil rig construction, pipeline inspections, and maintenance, boosting the demand for inertial navigation systems.
Thriving Aerospace Sector: Advancements in space research and the increasing number of satellite launches have expanded the utilization of inertial navigation systems, crucial for accurate velocity and altitude measurements. Technological advancements, including compact-sized navigation systems using ring laser gyros (RLG) and fiber optic gyros (FOG), are also driving market growth.
