IoT for Public Safety Market

IoT for Public Safety Market Overview

2021-2031, and is projected to reach US$ 30 Bn by 2031. Advanced data collection, disaster prevention, and time-saving techniques are areas where IoT technology can help meet the public safety needs of expanding populations. The increasing demand for IoT-enabled devices for the development of smart cities across the world would drive the market growth.

What is Driving Demand for IoT for Public Safety?

The current world’s urban population is around 4.4 billion people, that means in the last 60 years of span the number peoples living in urban areas has grown more than fourfold. This rapid urbanization also presents many challenges associated with public safety which are mainly disasters and urban safety problems.

To deal with these problems governments across the globe is continuously trying to enhance their public safety architectures by adopting IoT enabled public safety solutions and services.

Moreover, IoT, leveraging Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technologies has also fueled the growth of IoT for public safety market. The combination of AI and IoT would not just ensure the safety measures but also helps reducing upcoming emergency events by analyzing existing data patterns.

Convergence of 5G and Internet of Things (IoT)

The arrival of 5G technology has a lot to offer the public-safety community. The technology offers several advantages like faster speeds, greater capacity, ultra-low latencies and advanced support for IoT devices. Thus, 5G will enable massive adoption of new public safety applications that includes remote-controlled devices, field delivery of telemedicine and improved situational awareness using drones and video analytics complementing current LTE/4G mission-critical networks.

With these applications, first responders will have the information they need to respond to emergencies faster and more effectively, helping them better protect both the communities they serve and themselves. The transition to 5G will likely be gradual over the coming decade, starting with deployment of 5G hotspots to enhance mission-critical capacity in specific locations.

Partnering with local mobile network operators will allow governments to adopt 5G broadband and IoT capabilities faster and more smoothly in coming years. Thus, the convergence of 5G and IoT technologies will increase the adoption of 5G enabled IoT devices for public safety communities.

US Demand Outlook for IoT for Public Safety

Law enforcement in the United States has changed drastically since its founding. U.S. is the home to several largest public safety and security institutions in the world including National Institute for Public Safety, Department of Homeland Security (DHS), National Security Agency (NSA), and among others. The country has numerous local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies who employ more than 800,000 officers.

There is an average of 2.2 law enforcement officers for every 1,000 individuals living in the United States, and the size of police departments varies largely by location and population. In the United States, public safety is the dedicated responsibility of certain government organizations and local departments.

The government in the U.S. continuously focuses on developing advance public safety technologies to better serve their peoples. Also the country has early adopters of public safety and security technologies for internal urban applications.

India Demand Outlook of IoT for Public Safety

The rapid urbanization due to increasing population and urban migration, public safety and security has become a key issue in India. The sophistication level of criminals has been increased, and are operating with little regard to national and international boundaries.

Moreover, the physical abuse cases alone has increased nine times over the last 40 years, followed by instances of kidnap and murder which has increased by eight and 2.5 times respectively in the last 60 years, in India.

In spite of several security initiatives implemented by the government of India, there still have been events that accentuate the need for immediate security strategies such as surveillance and analytics to enable a safe city environment and safeguard key public infrastructure. The government of India is focusing on investing funds in public safety infrastructure to enhance public safety across the different states and cities.
