The security robots market size is projected to reach US$ 169.26 billion by 2031 from US$ 43.53 billion in 2023. The market is expected to register a CAGR of 18.50% during 2023–2031. The improvements in automation and sensor technology are likely to remain key trends in the market.

Security Robots Market Analysis

The market growth of security robots is attributed to the increasing defense expenditure in emerging economies, procurement of robots for commercial and civil areas, and development of autonomous and AI-enabled security robots for military, defense, and commercial purposes. Further, advancements in regulations for using drones and the advent of unmanned underwater vehicles are a few other factors contributing to the demand for security robots, which is boosting the growth of the security robots market. One of the key benefits of using security robots is the increased security level. Their ongoing monitoring and rapid response times help dissuade possible attacks, resulting in a safer atmosphere for businesses and employees.

Security Robots Market Overview

A security robot is an autonomous machine driven by artificial intelligence that watches and defends a specified area or premises. Unlike typical security people, these robots use sensors, cameras, and smart algorithms to identify and respond to possible threats. They can travel a variety of terrains and situations, making them adaptable and capable of patrolling both interior and outdoor areas. One of the key benefits of using security robots is the increased security level. Their ongoing monitoring and rapid response times help dissuade possible attacks, resulting in a safer atmosphere for businesses and employees.

Security Robots Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rising Defense Spending to Favor Market

The expansion of the security robots market is determined by rising defense spending in various areas. For instance, according to newly released estimates from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI), the United States' defense spending will account for approximately 40% of all military expenditures worldwide in 2023. Between 2022 and 2023, US defense spending grew by US$ 55 billion, owing in part to more military aid supplied to help Ukraine in its protracted struggle. The United States invests more in defense than the following nine countries combined.

Technological Advancements

Technological improvements, particularly in sensor technology and automation capabilities, have significantly affected the employment of security robots in a variety of applications. These advances have made security robots more efficient and capable of completing a wide range of jobs, resulting in their greater acceptance in many sectors. Robotics advancements seek to promote human-robot collaboration rather than completely replacing human jobs. Robots excel at activities that demand accuracy and physical power, but humans possess unique abilities such as empathy, creativity, judgment, critical thinking, and the capacity to rely on past experiences.

Security Robots Market Report Segmentation Analysis

Key segments that contributed to the derivation of the security robots market analysis are product type, end-use, and vertical.

  • Based on product type, the market is segmented by unmanned aerial vehicles, unmanned ground vehicles, and unmanned ground vehicles. The unmanned aerial vehicles segment dominated the market share in 2023.
  • Based on end-use, the market is segmented into spying, explosive detection, firefighting, demining, rescue operations, and others. The explosive detection segment held the largest share of the market in 2023.
  • Based on vertical, the market is segmented into manufacturing, healthcare, transportation & logistics, commercial, military, it, and others. The manufacturing segment held the largest share of the market in 2023.

Security Robots Market Share Analysis by Geography

The geographic scope of the security robots market report is mainly divided into five regions: North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East & Africa, and South & Central America.

Asia Pacific dominated the market in 2023. The region witnessed the presence of a large number of security robot providers, rising expenditure on defense and military; and increasing real estate industry in Singapore, India, China, Vietnam, and many other countries are driving the demand for deploying security robots. Additionally, the inclination toward the procurement of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)/drones for border security purposes is also creating a lucrative demand for security robots. The Asia Pacific security robots market is growing because of increased defense spending in nations such as Australia, South Korea, and India. Defense spending has both good and bad consequences on the economy, and it accounts for a major portion of worldwide military expenditure. Territorial disputes and geopolitical instability have driven up demand for security robots in the Asia Pacific area.

The company level information helps us in deriving the base number as well as in forecasting the market size.

  • 3.4 Developing Base Number:

Aggregation of sales statistics (2020-2022) and macro-economic factor, and other secondary and primary research insights are utilized to arrive at base number and related market shares for 2022. The data gaps are identified in this step and relevant market data is analyzed, collected from paid primary interviews or databases. On finalizing the base year market size, forecasts are developed on the basis of macro-economic, industry and market growth factors and company level analysis.

  1. Data Triangulation and Final Review:

The market findings and base year market size calculations are validated from supply as well as demand side. Demand side validations are based on macro-economic factor analysis and benchmarks for respective regions and countries. In case of supply side validations, revenues of major companies are estimated (in case not available) based on industry benchmark, approximate number of employees, product portfolio, and primary interviews revenues are gathered. Further revenue from target product/service segment is assessed to avoid overshooting of market statistics. In case of heavy deviations between supply and demand side values, all thes steps are repeated to achieve synchronization.

We follow an iterative model, wherein we share our research findings with Subject Matter Experts (SME’s) and Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) until consensus view of the market is not formulated – this model negates any drastic deviation in the opinions of experts. Only validated and universally acceptable research findings are quoted in our reports.

We have important check points that we use to validate our research findings – which we call – data triangulation, where we validate the information, we generate from secondary sources with primary interviews and then we re-validate with our internal data bases and Subject matter experts. This comprehensive model enables us to deliver high quality, reliable data in shortest possible time.

Your data will never be shared with third parties, however, we may send you information from time to time about our products that may be of interest to you. By submitting your details, you agree to be contacted by us. You may contact us at any time to opt-out.
