The factors that are expected to fuel the growth of the port equipment market are the increasing seaborne trade across the globe and the growing number of container shipments in Asia Pacific and the Middle East. Various countries have been focusing on developing new ports owing to the increase in vessel count and trade volume. According to the International Chamber of Shipping, 90% of the world’s trade is carried out through seaways as they are ideal for heavy and bulk goods, have large carrying capabilities, and offer competitive freight costs. The global port equipment market size is expected to grow from USD 29.2 billion in 2018 to USD 36.6 million by 2023, at a CAGR of 3.30% during the forecast period. The major driving factors for the port equipment market are the increasing seaborne trade across the globe and the growing number of container shipments in Asia Pacific and the Middle East. Based on equipment type, the straddle carriers segment is estimated to lead the port equipm
The global vision positioning system market is estimated to be valued at USD 5.58 billion in 2017 and is projected to reach USD 9.25 billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 10.65% from 2017 to 2022. With the advent of the GPS (Global Positioning System) technology, the application of positioning systems has increased significantly. Positioning systems are extensively used for outdoor navigation in various sectors, such as defense, tourism, and logistics & transportation, among others. However, for navigation in indoor locations, the GPS-based positioning systems lack accuracy and signal strength. Besides, GPS signals are also restricted over various high sensitive areas, such as military bases, research labs, and underground locations. Hence, vision positioning systems are extensively used for local navigation in these areas. Camera systems are used to capture real-time images to the processors which store the images in memory. In camera systems various sensors are used, such as pressu
