Technavio’s market research analysts predict the global document camera market for smart classrooms to grow steadily during the forecast period and post a CAGR of more than 11% by 2020. This industry research report identifies the increasing demand for distance education to be one of the major factors that will have a positive impact on the growth of this market in the coming years. Due to its low-cost, distance education is increasingly being preferred by students among several countries across the globe. Additionally, distance learning also offers flexible learning opportunities as it is less bound by time and location. In addition to the increasing number of universities offering online courses, the evolution of virtual communication platforms also enables educational institutions to adopt online learning methods such as blended learning. This will result in the adoption of virtual classroom sessions and lecture videos, which, in turn, will spur the demand for document cameras in the coming years.
One of the major trends that will gain traction in this market is the rise in online education. With the digitalization of the education industry and the increased availability of digital content, virtual communication platforms, and mobile education applications, there will be a growing demand for e-learning in the coming years. Adopting various tools and learning specific software, e-learning enables the creation, delivery, and management of the virtual learning environment and will result in increasing student enrollments towards online courses.
The market consists of a number of well-diversified international and regional vendors and appears to be fragmented. Since the international document camera manufacturers are increasing their footprint in the market, the regional and local vendors are finding it extremely difficult to compete with them, especially in terms of features such as product quality, technology, and pricing. An increase in product or service extensions, technological advancements, and M&As will intensify the level of competition in the market. Analysts predict that the international vendors will grow inorganically during the predicted period by acquiring regional or local players.
The leading vendors in the market are -
The other prominent vendors in the market are AVer Information, Ken-A-Vision, Pathway Innovations and Technologies, Promethean World, QOMO HiteVision, Samsung Presenter, Smart Technologies, and WolfVision.
