WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF REVAMPING Gunshot Detection System Market WITH RESPECT TO RUSSIA-UKRAINE CONFLICT

Request Sample

The gunshot detection system (GDS) is used to detect and provide the location of a source with the help of multiple sensors. These systems are used by the military, security, and law enforcement agencies to identify the source, the direction of the gun firing, and the weapon fire type. They consist of IP surveillance cameras and different types of sensors. The sensors are installed in indoor or outdoor locations. An increasing focus on the development of smart cities and the surging number of shooting incidents would drive the market's growth. In November 2019, ShotSpotter, Inc. signed a three-year contract worth USD 4.27 million with Puerto Rico to deploy gunshot detection technology in the portions of the capital San Juan and neighboring municipalities of Trujillo Alto and Bayamon.


Defense Industry Has Faced Unmatched Challenges Due to COVID-19 Pandemic


Due to the lockdown in major countries such as the U.S., France, Germany, China, India, and Japan, there was a huge impact on the defense industry, which further resulted in a production halt and delayed product deliveries. ShotSpotter, Inc., an acoustic gunshot detection company, put in place a mandatory and complete travel ban during the pandemic. The travel ban suspends all installation and project management activities. It resulted in delayed installation projects that were planned in March and April. Furthermore, due to these travel restrictions, scheduled deployments were delayed at the request of customers as they were dealing with their response to the pandemic.


LATEST TRENDS

Adoption of Advanced Infrared and Sound Detection Technologies is a Prominent Trend


Nowadays, GDS manufacturers primarily focus on the introduction of the latest technologies to detect real-time sound. SAFE ZONE TECHNOLOGIES, INC. developed a gunfire detector that combines advanced infrared and sound detection technologies. It can analyze more than 3,000 data points of each loud noise that exceeds a certain threshold and provides real-time cloud-based data analysis. Through the collected data, the system detects the number of shots, the location of shots fired, and the type of gun used.


DRIVING FACTORS


Rising Number of Shooting Incidents, especially in the U.S. to Boost Market Growth


There is a continuous increase in the number of mass shooting incidents in public places. According to the Gun Violence Research Group in the U.S., there were the highest number of mass shooting incidents in the U.S. in 2019. According to the data released by Gun Violence Archive (GVA), the U.S. has witnessed 417 mass shootings in 2019. Thirty-one out of those shootings were mass murders.


These systems are effective when deployed indoors or outdoors in high-crime areas to reduce the risk of collateral damage. Gunshot detectors, when properly integrated with building systems, resulting in a lockdown of the facility to delay or deter the entrance of the shooter and save lives. Thus, these factors would drive the growth of the market.


Increasing Use of Gunshot Detection Systems by Law Enforcement Agencies to Propel Growth


Nowadays, the growing demand for gunshot detection systems is due to their applications in law enforcement, security agencies, and defense forces. The system detects and analyzes data in real time and provides it to the police department. In June 2020, ShotSpotter, Inc. signed a contract worth USD 2.5 million given by the Sacramento City Council for gunshot detection technology. It will allow the Sacramento Police Department to continue detecting gunshots at three undisclosed locations through 2025. Furthermore, in February 2018, the city of Chicago signed a three-year contract worth USD 23 million with ShotSpotter, Inc. to track gunshots across 100 square miles. Thus, the increasing use of these systems is set to accelerate market growth.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


High Cost Associated with Installation and Configuration Complications May Hamper Growth


Gunshot detection systems are highly expensive for installation and integration. The system consists of multiple hardware components such as sensors, power sources, cameras, Ethernet data cables, and others to each detector with Power over Ethernet (PoE) switches connecting the on-site server. Thus, the installation process demands high labor and material costs. Furthermore, there are significant complications of configuration and connectivity issues with the existing corporate networks. Thus, these factors may hamper the growth of the market.


SEGMENTATION


By Installation Analysis


Vehicle Installation Segment Held Highest Share in 2020 Due to Increasing Demand for Next-generation Armored Vehicles


Based on the installation, the market is segmented into fixed installation, vehicle installation, and soldier-mounted installation. The vehicle installation segment held the highest share in 2020. The increasing demand for armored vehicles equipped with advanced systems and surging defense expenditure from most countries would drive the growth of this segment. The fixed installation segment is estimated to grow with the highest CAGR during 2021-2028. The growth is attributed to the rising mass shooting incidents in public places, increasing crime rate, and spurring security concerns in schools. In August 2019, for instance, 23 people were killed in a mass shooting incident in a Walmart store in Texas.


By Application Analysis

Commercial Segment to Grow Rapidly Propelled by Development of Smart Cities and GDS Installations at Public Places


Based on the application, the market is classified into commercial and defense. The defense segment is estimated to be the largest in 2020. The system is used in the defense sector to detect locations of firing from large weapons. It involves installing armored vehicles, military bases, border crossings, soldier wearables, and others. Thus, the rising demand for advanced GDS would boost the segment’s growth.


The commercial segment will showcase the highest growth during 2021-2028 owing to the increasing security concerns, as well as rising shooting incidents at schools, malls, and other public places. Furthermore, the surging focus on the development of smart cities would boost the segment’s growth during the forecast period. Various law enforcement and other security agencies installed GDS in cities to reduce crime and improve security. In September 2018, ShotSpotter Inc. signed a contract worth USD 23 million with the police department of Chicago to track gunshots across 100 square miles.


By System Analysis


The outdoor Segment Will Showcase Highest Growth Due to Rising Demand for Long Range GDS


Based on the system, the market is divided into indoor and outdoor. The outdoor segment is anticipated to be the largest in 2020, and it is likely to continue its dominance during the forecast period. The growth is due to the extended coverage area and higher accuracy. ShotSpotter, Inc.’s system, for instance, is installed in more than 100 cities in the U.S. As per the data shown by ShotSpotter’s National Gunfire Index, there were 86,665 incidents of gunfire in 87 cities in 2017.


The indoor segment is anticipated to show a significant CAGR during 2021-2028. The growth is attributed to the increasing crime rates leading to GDS installations at malls, schools, and other organizations. In August 2019, the Denver-area school district planned to install an indoor shooter detection system at its five school campuses.
