Overview A market forecast uses current data, trends, and drivers to project the market's future growth. For the automotive camera market, the forecast is exceptionally strong. The "if" of adoption is gone; the only questions now are "how fast" and "how many." The forecast isn't just about more cars getting cameras; it's about more cameras getting put on each car.
Sensing vs. Viewing: The "sensing" camera segment (for ADAS) is forecast to grow much faster than the "viewing" camera segment (for parking).
In-Cabin Growth: The in-cabin (driver monitoring) segment, while small today, is projected to have one of the highest growth rates as it becomes essential for Level 3 autonomous systems.
Commercial Vehicles: While passenger cars are the biggest segment, the commercial vehicle (trucking) market is set to adopt cameras rapidly to improve safety, reduce accidents, and monitor drivers. The future is clear: within a decade, the average new car will likely feature a suite of high-resolution, AI-powered cameras as standard equipment.

What is the automotive camera market forecast for 2030? Based on a 19.5% CAGR from a $19.1B 2025 value, the market is projected to be worth well over $39 billion by 2030.
Will all new cars have multiple cameras? This is the trend. It's highly likely that within the next 5-10 years, the vast majority of new cars will have at least one front-facing ADAS camera and one rear-view camera, with many mid-range models also offering surround-view.
How do electric vehicles (EVs) impact the forecast? EVs and high-tech cameras go hand-in-hand. EV manufacturers like Tesla have built their brand on advanced technology, including vision-based ADAS, which positively impacts and accelerates the forecast.
