Demand for Smart Airports and Impact of COVID-19……..
The global smart
airport market size is expected
to reach USD 25.09 billion by 2025,
growing at a CAGR of 10.7%.
According to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. The growth can be
accredited to increased penetration of automated and connected airport
processes, such as self-service check-ins, smart baggage drop, and smart
luggage tracking.
Artificial Intelligence (AI), Virtual Reality
(VR), and Augmented Reality (AR) solutions are anticipated to substantially
contribute while responding to the COVID-19 pandemic and address continuously
evolving challenges. The existing situation owing to the outbreak of the
epidemic will inspire pharmaceutical vendors and healthcare establishments to
improve their R&D investments in AI, acting as a core technology for
enabling various initiatives. The insurance industry is expected to confront
the pressure associated with cost-efficiency. Usage of AI can help in reducing
operating costs, and at the same time, can increase customer satisfaction
during the renewal process, claims, and other services. VR/AR can assist in
e-learning, for which the demand will surge owing to the closure of many
schools and universities. Further, VR/AR can also prove to be a valuable
solution in providing remote assistance as it can support in avoiding
unnecessary travel. The report will account for Covid19 as a key market
contributor.
Moreover, the rising demand for
various technologically-advanced non-aeronautical systems, communication
systems, and security systems such as electronic bag tags is expected to boost
the growth over the forecast period.
Emerging technologies and devices,
such as smart access control systems, fingerprint readers, and smart card
technology are being increasingly implemented by airports for enhancing the
overall passenger experience. Additionally, with the introduction of
smartphone-based airport applications, passengers are now able to utilize
real-time information, such as gate number, arrival time, direction to airport,
check-in line, and flight booking.
Companies across the globe are
investing heavily on IT and digital technology to effectively streamline their
business processes and provide value-added services to customers. A majority of
airports are now focusing on passenger self-service solutions and are planning
to implement new technologies, such as the adoption of Bluetooth-enabled
beacons to provide connected airport solutions.

Key Players include in the smart airport
Market are Amadeus IT Group S.A., Cisco Systems, Inc., Honeywell International
Inc., Siemens AG, and IBM. Other companies include Sabre Corporation, Thales
Group, T-Systems International GmbH, and QinetiQ Group Plc.
The global smart airports market size was estimated at USD 10.09
billion in 2016. The growth can be attributed to the rising adoption of digital
technologies across the world, which has led to digital transformation and
expansion of personalized experiences offered to passengers.
The global market has grown in prominence with new innovative
technologies which have helped personalize user experiences. The increasing
demand for real-time information is expected to propel the market growth as
these solutions ease the burden on airport infrastructure and workforce. The modernization
of old airports, establishment of new airports, development in commercial
aviation, and the increasing focus on green initiatives are the key growth
drivers expected to boost the market over the forecast period.
The introduction of various devices
with innovative features, such as customer identification through a unique
heart beat pattern with the help of biodynamic and biometric signatures, and
the deployment of artificial intelligence technology across airports, are
supporting the management and control of large airport databases.
An emerging trend in the industry is
the development and commercialization of new intelligent technologies that
provide a digital ecosystem, such as automated check-in, flight book
management, and baggage and document check. Airports across the world are
increasingly adopting technology-enabled devices, such as smart luggage system
and on-site application of Internet of Things (IoT) to transform customer
experiences.
