Abstract
Summary
An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) (commonly known as a drone) is an aircraft without a human pilot on board. UAVs are a component of an unmanned aircraft system (UAS), which include a UAV, a ground-based controller, and a system of communications between the two. The flight of UAVs may operate with various degrees of autonomy: either under remote control by a human operator or autonomously by onboard computers referred to as an autopilot.
Compared to crewed aircraft, UAVs were originally used for missions too "dull, dirty or dangerous" for humans. While drones originated mostly in military applications, their use is rapidly finding many more applications including aerial photography, product deliveries, agriculture, policing and surveillance, infrastructure inspections, science, smuggling, and drone racing.
The global Drone market is projected to reach US$ 17520 million by 2030 from an estimated US$ 7705.8 million in 2024, at a CAGR of 14.7% during 2024 and 2030.
Global core drone manufacturers include DJI, AeroVironment etc.The top 1 company hold a share about 60%. China is the largest market, with a share about 75%, followed by North America and Europe with the share about 12% and 8%.In terms of product, spiral wing is the largest segment, with a share over 57%. And in terms of application, the largest application is entertainment & media & mapping, followed by agriculture.
