Beacon is a wireless transmitter device that operates on low-energy Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or hybrid technology to transfer information to attached smart devices such as smartphones, tablets, and others. The Beacon produces information in the form of promotional notifications, videos, coupons, URL forms, and others. Beacon is experiencing increasing demand from various industries such as Retail, Hospitality, Healthcare, BFSI, Entertainment, Transportation and Logistics, and Others. The global Beacon market is expected to rise at a considerable rate in the forecast period.
The growing adoption of advanced communication technologies such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, NFC, RFID, and others along with rising popularity are crucial factors that are escalating the growth of the Beacon market. In addition to that, the rising demand for Beacon on advanced Bluetooth technology such as Bluetooth 5.2, Bluetooth 5, Bluetooth 4 from several industries such as logistics, entertainment, and others are projected to increase the adoption of Beacon. Eventually, it intensifies the growth of the global Beacon market.
Furthermore, under smart city projects by the government, Beacon is being installed in public zones for providing location-based services, city promotion, genetic surveys, and other marketing activities. Moreover, in smart city projects, Beacon is used to improve the security system and infrastructure assets by increasing interaction with the users in its proximity zone. Therefore, with the growth of the various smart city projects across the world, the Beacon market is expected to witness growing deployment throughout the forecast period. Ultimately, this key fact promoting the growth of the market to a great extent.
On the contrary, data security concerns associated with data access from Bluetooth networks and the Internet of Things (IoT) hamper the market’s growth. Besides, the rise in the threat of cybercriminals targeting organizations via IoT devices is anticipated to limit the beacon market size in the forthcoming years.
Covid-19 Impact on Beacon Market
Like many other industries, COVID-19 badly knocked the electronic and semiconductor industries. This unprecedented event has impacted nearly 230 countries in just a few weeks, resulting in the forced shutdown of manufacturing and transportation activities within and across the countries. This has directly affected the overall sector's growth. It is estimated that COVID-19 to leave more than USD 30 billion impacts on the electronics and semiconductor industry. The sector is majorly affected due to transport restrictions on major electronics and semiconductor raw material providers. However, the emerging need for semiconductors in several industries will offer rapid market recovery over the future period.
Beacon Market Segment Overview
According to the component, the Hardware segment is projected to hold the largest share of the global Beacon market in the coming period. Beacon hardware devices can be easily installed across any location with minimum complication. The demand for the Beacon is growing mostly from industries such as retail, transportation, and logistics and others, due to the increasing emphasis on location-based applications and services. Additionally, prominent players in the Beacon market are focusing on adopting hybrid communication technologies to integrate with Beacon. These advanced Beacons are prominently developed for location-based services and are being installed in public places like shopping complexes, airports, amusement parks, trade fairs, stadiums, events, conferences, and others. All these crucial factors are expected to support the growth of this segment in the forthcoming period.
