Delayed Widespread Adoption of Advanced Systems Owing to COVID-19 May Hinder Growth


The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the automotive industry has been characterized by assembly plant closures, disruption of parts supply chain, and global demand shock. According to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), a decline in the export of Chinese parts and other intermediate inputs to automakers operating in Japan, Europe, South Korea, the U.S., and other key automotive producing economies can lead to a reduction of USD 7 billion in automotive exports to the rest of the world from these countries.


The removal of a large number of commercial vehicles (particularly heavy class 6-8) and passenger cars from production schedules would impact the automotive manufacturers' ability to invest in R&D initiatives such as biometric authentication. Currently, features in the biometric system such as fingerprint recognition are mostly available on premium and high-end automobiles. Significant cost reduction is necessary to integrate such features in the architecture of low and mid-tier vehicles.


However, owing to the pandemic, manufacturers have been compelled to focus on day-to-day cash flow management and reduce innovation funding. These factors are expected to delay the adoption of biometric authorization systems over the next two years as manufacturers will be unable to considerably reduce the current hardware and software requirements of such advanced vehicle access control systems.


Moreover, vehicle thefts have also increased during the lockdown, particularly in the U.S. For instance, according to the regional law enforcement agencies, vehicle thefts in Los Angeles and New York increased by nearly 17% and 63% from January to mid-May in 2020, as compared to 2019. Hence, the demand for cost-effective alternatives such as stolen vehicle location assist and immobilizers is expected to increase among consumers.

Development of a Standardized Ecosystem for Keyless Vehicle Access is a Crucial Trend


Recently, in May 2020, the Car Connectivity Consortium (CCC) comprised of the global vehicle and smartphone manufacturers, chip vendors, and automotive tier-1 suppliers, introduced the Digital Key Release 2.0. The digital key architecture uses near field communication (NFC) to operate on a standard interface that allows interoperability across different vehicles and mobile devices. Furthermore, the 2.0 architecture allows vehicle owners to access their vehicles even without internet connectivity.


The CCC is also developing the Release 3.0 specification that aims to utilize ultra-wideband (UWB) and Bluetooth low-energy for greater vehicle security. The adoption of standardized interface technologies by large-scale manufacturers such as Honda, BMW, and Hyundai (members of the CCC) among others allows greater convenience for consumers and increases the commercial viability of such passive vehicle access control systems. Hence, the development of a standardized ecosystem for vehicle access using digital keys is positively influencing the growth of the market.


DRIVING FACTORS


Increasing Vehicle Thefts to Fuel Demand for Vehicle Access Systems


According to a report published by the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) in March 2019, between January 2016 and December 2018, the number of vehicle thefts with keys or fobs left in the vehicle increased to 229,339 in the U.S. This number represents a 56 percent rise in vehicle thefts using keys over the 147,434 vehicles stolen between January 2013 and December 2015. Keyless car entry and more advanced techniques such as facial recognition and fingerprint authorization for vehicle ignition can enhance its security and significantly reduce the loss per motor vehicle theft. Hence, increasing motor vehicle theft is the primary factor fueling the vehicle access control market growth.


Advancement of Vehicle Access Control Technologies to Augment Growth


The false acceptance rate (FAR) (matching with incorrect input) and false rejection rate (FRR) (failure to detect the vehicle owners' input) of biometric access control systems such as fingerprint and iris recognition have improved considerably over the last few years. For instance, according to tests conducted by the National Institute of Standards Technology (NIST) in the U.S. in 2019, facial recognition achieved an FRR of 1.1%. Hence, the technological advancement of biometric authentication is expected to propel the growth of the market.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


High Costs of Advanced Systems to Restrain Growth


Advanced systems such as biometric access (iris recognition and fingerprint recognition) and perfectly keyless systems (smartphone-based access) would increase the component requirements and design complexities in terms of integrating with the vehicle architecture. The rising installation, manufacturing, and overall cost of such systems owing to these factors can reduce the adoption among vehicle owners.


SEGMENTATION


By Type Analysis


Biometric Systems Segment to Grow at a Faster Pace Owing to Technological Advancement


By type, the vehicle access control market is segmented into biometric systems and non-biometric systems. The advancement of in-vehicle facial recognition software and the increased adoption of fingerprint authorization among vehicle manufacturers is fueling the growth of the biometric systems segment. For instance, Hyundai introduced the Hyundai Santa Fe SUV in 2019 as the first commercially equipped vehicle with fingerprint scanning sensors to unlock, as well as to start the vehicle ignition. Hence, this segment is anticipated to exhibit a higher CAGR over the forecast period.


An increase in the demand for cost-effective solutions such as audible alarm systems and steering column collars in developing economies, as well as a rise in the demand for immobilizers and keyless entry solutions, particularly in developed economies are some of the factors attributed to the considerable growth of the non-biometric segment.
