A market report by WinterGreen Research predicts that the global market for law enforcement robots will reach a $5.7 billion value in 2022 due to an increased number of terrorist threats around the world, WhaTech said Saturday.
Pramod Dige writes the “Law Enforcement Robots: Market Shares, Market Strategies, and Market Forecasts, 2016 to 2022” study attributes the growth of the demand for law enforcement robots to the technology’s applications in emergency situation management for hostage situations, natural disasters and terrorist attacks.
The study also indicates that law enforcement robots’ support for police organizations as well as declining costs due to the emerging economy of scale and technology developments have contributed to the growth of the market.
