Technology Type
The market is segmented as millimeter wave scanner and backscatter X-ray scanner. The millimeter-wave systems segment is projected to witness a higher growth during the forecast period.
This growth is primarily supported by the extensive installation of these systems in place of backscatter systems. Backscatter systems suffer from the drawback of emitting low-energy X-rays that bounce off a passenger's body which enhances the possibility of cancer, and other skin diseases in the human body.
Regional Analysis
North America is estimated to command the full body scanner market during the forecast period. The full body scanner market in Europe and Asia-Pacific is likely to depict significant growth, driven by the regulatory mandates for the installation of full body scanners in Europe and the rise in terrorist outbreaks in the Asia-Pacific region. The North American region is estimated to be the largest market for airport full body scanner.
The market is driven as the region has always been a forerunner in adapting new technologies and has emerged out as one of the lucrative markets for technological investments. It is also the fastest-growing market, owing to the high risk of security threats and criminal activities.
