Market Trends of Airport Robots Industry

The Airport Security Segment Holds the Largest Market Share

By 2024, the airport security segment will dominate the market, reflecting the global emphasis on bolstering airport security in the face of rising terrorism threats. Airports worldwide are increasingly turning to autonomous robots as a cornerstone of their security strategy. Hamad International Airport and La Guardia Airport have adopted such robots equipped with cutting-edge features like facial recognition, cameras, and sensors. These robots can even remotely measure pulse rates, allowing them to detect suspicious individuals, counterfeit currency, and explosives, all while maintaining smooth passenger flow.

As new airports spring up, there is a noticeable shift toward tech-centric designs, prioritizing both passenger convenience and safety. A standout event was Knightscope Inc., a prominent autonomous security robot manufacturer, securing a contract in December 2022 to supply robots to a New Jersey airport. This achievement underscored the growing reliance on such technology, hinting at a future with similar opportunities.

Asia-Pacific is Expected to Register the Highest Growth During the Forecast Period

Asia-Pacific leads the global surge in airport infrastructure development, propelled by a rising influx of air passengers. This growth is driving the adoption of cutting-edge technologies, notably airport robots. China emerges as a standout in the realm of air travel expansion. Forecasts suggest that Asia-Pacific is poised to sustain this growth trajectory, with civil aviation authorities doubling down on new airport investments. However, this growth is shadowed by mounting concerns over airport security, increasing the demand for advanced security technologies.

India and China are investing heavily in expanding and modernizing their airports. For instance, in April 2023, Singapore's Changi Airport deployed two patrol robots, bolstering security measures. In June 2022, Coimbatore Airport in India conducted trials with AI-enabled robots, and Bengaluru International Airport introduced ten AI-powered support robots. These initiatives, alongside the Airport Authority of India's pioneering use of AI robots in Bangalore, underscore the region's dedication to elevating operational efficiency and passenger satisfaction.
