On the other hand, the technology has been witnessing increased applications in 3D medical imaging and the rising use of the technology in machine vision applications of industrial automation has also played a significant role in shaping the market growth in the coming five years. Similarly, the participation of the market in the launch and development of new and advanced imaging solutions to cater to the growing end-user requirements also shows the growth potential of the market in the near future. The booming penetration of 3D imaging technologies in civil engineering applications by way of using 3D scanners to create building models further propels the business growth opportunities for the market players over the course of the next five years.

Moreover, the availability of low-cost and portable 3D scanners along with the growing adoption of 3D scanning in animation and virtual reality applications are positively impacting the growth of the global 3D imaging market. Rising 3D content is forcing smartphone manufacturers to introduce 3D cameras, thereby providing lucrative opportunities to the market players to invest in the market as well as to capture a greater share over other players during the given time frame. 

3D Imaging Market Growth Drivers:

• The rising burden of chronic diseases is supplementing the market growth

One of the factors complementing the demand for 3D imaging solutions is the constantly growing prevalence of chronic diseases globally. The burden of chronic diseases is significantly increasing in both developed and developing economies around the globe. As per the data from the World Health Organization, the burden of non-communicable diseases is anticipated to reach 57% by the year 2020 from 41% in the year 2001. Out of all the chronic diseases, cardiovascular diseases contribute almost half of the chronic disease burden, also obesity, and diabetes are showing worrying trends because of the fact these have started occurring in the earlier stages of life. This is due to the adoption of unhealthy living conditions which include unhealthy dietary conditions, and physical inactivity affecting a considerably large proportion of the population worldwide. Therefore, an increase in the prevalence of chronic diseases is further driving the various imaging procedures due to the increased demand for the early detection of diseases. This, in turn, is also propelling the frequency of diagnostic imaging procedures, which is playing a significant role in shaping up the market growth. Also, there is a significant increase in the geriatric population throughout the globe, which is also anticipated to positively impact the market growth as aged people are more susceptible to chronic diseases.
