6418 MarketsandMarkets’ latest report, Night Vision System (NVS) and Driver Monitoring System (DMS) Market for Passenger Cars - by Geography - Trends and Forecasts 2014-2019 classifies and defines the automotive night vision and driver monitoring systems market in terms of volume and value. The report highlights potential growth opportunities in the coming years as well as covers review of the - market drivers, restraints, growth indicators, challenges, legislation trends, market dynamics, competitive landscape, and other key aspects of the automotive active safety systems market.

According to the report, Asia-Pacific is a growing market for night vision and driver monitoring systems. The region includes developing countries such as China, India, and Thailand. Factors such as increasing market penetration of premium cars and safety installations per vehicles are accelerating the demand of automotive night vision and driver monitoring systems. 564 Omron Corporation, Japan is the dominant player in this region which is anticipated to drive the demand for automotive night vision and driver monitoring systems.

Apart from these, the global players such as Robert 311 Bosch, Germany, 4171 Autoliv, Sweden and 601 TRW Automotive in the US have a presence in the Asia-Pacific region, which is also expected to influence the market demand for the systems.

In 2009, Europe experienced an economic downturn that affected many industries and is currently in its recovery phase. However, the market for automotive night vision and driver monitoring systems is projected to show a stable growth rate for the period under study. Europe is the major market for such systems and home to a number of automotive safety system suppliers such as Robert Bosch, Germany, Autoliv in Sweden and TRW Automotive, US.

The Americas region, comprising the US, Mexico, Brazil, Canada, and others also shows a healthy growth rate, with Mexico and Brazil the emerging economies in this segment.

The United States new car assessment program (US NCAP) is a flagship consumer information program of the 324 US Department of Transportation's 834 National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). In the coming years, US NCAP will adjust its rating system to reflect the improvements in the safety features of US vehicles. This will make it more stringent for a vehicle to achieve top ratings, thus encouraging manufacturers to produce vehicles exceeding the minimum federal safety requirements. This is expected to positively affect the night vision and driver monitoring system market. Automotive safety systems suppliers such as Robert Bosch, Germany, Autoliv, Sweden, TRW Automotive, US and Omron Corporation of Japan have a major presence in the Americas region.
