Study: The future of the drone market

Not so long ago, when most people heard the word "drone", the first thing that occurred to them was a military drone, which is used in various secret operations. But when Jeff Bezos announced that Amazon had tested the idea of ​​delivering parcels using drones, he pushed the market towards the idea of ​​commercially using drones and the idea seems to be quite viable.

In the near future, we should not expect that drones will break into our daily lives, but they will definitely begin to gain momentum in business and certain areas of private use. Delivery of products to home, the sphere of personal security, assistance in monitoring fields in the agricultural business, the use of drones for advertising in the sky, this list can be continued for a very long time. According to BII estimates, 12% of the $ 98 billion total global spending on drones over the next decade will be in the commercial sector.









Our library has published a new report from BII, in which researchers tried to estimate the volume of commercial and military UAV markets, how big the drones industry can become, and which industries are likely to benefit from this by incorporating drones into their business model over the next few years. . This is mainly retail, e-commerce and logistics. Below is the Amazon commercial, as they see their delivery service with drones.

The study also indicates the industries that will be developed to produce components for drones: GPS modules, batteries, various sensors, photo / video equipment ... The study also considers the legal side of using drones, but only according to US law, regulators plan to give permission for full-scale commercial use of 25-pound drones in 2015 alone. For the CIS countries, the legal side will not be a problem, it is more likely that it will be necessary to think about how to protect these drones from vandalism or banal thefts.
