The market is advancing rapidly with a focus on enhancing Indoor location-based services in various sectors, such as Hospitals, addressing Privacy concerns through secure Cloud-based IoT services. Solutions include Seamless integration of Asset tracking and efficient Navigation systems, particularly beneficial for Impaired people in Electronic healthcare environments. Key players like Real-time location system providers cater to diverse needs in Office spaces, Warehouses, and other facilities using integrated Software and Hardware solutions via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Beacons. These technologies leverage IoT and API technologies, enhancing GPS navigation systems for precise Location-based analytics, optimizing Route planning and Customer targeting across Travel and hospitality and Logistics and warehouses sectors, ensuring efficient Intermodal travel chain management and Barrier-free routing for all users, including through Ultra wideband technology.
The low-cost BLE beacon technology is notably driving market growth. BLE-based beacons have been designed such that they can be attached to any object and broadcast tiny radio signals from any location. These signals are received and interpreted by the user's smartphone to unlock micro-location and contextual awareness.
Furthermore, BLE beacon is an affordable technology to obtain indoor location data that is useful for developing innovative apps to serve end-users in a better way. Retailers want to deploy BLEs in their stores due to their novel benefits. This is a huge market that is changing the face of the retail industry. Therefore, such factors will drive the global market during the forecast period.
Increasing the use of iBeacon for businesses is an emerging trend in the market. iBeacon adds a touch of novelty to traditional shopping using Bluetooth technology. Beacon's micro-location capability aids seamless navigation and provides two-way communication. It plays a vital role in IoT and M2M, which has a significant impact on consumers by creating a seamless user experience at a low cost. Furthermore, it can capture the user's reach to deliver innovative and transformative experiences. It has applications in museums, banking, public transport, logistics, and manufacturing units.
A significant trend in the global IPIN market is the increased focus of players on creating a state-of-the-art end-user experience. Providing promotional offers and discounts is no longer sufficient for marketing. Companies want to engage with users at a much more personal level to increase the customer's association with the brand. This was an innovative attempt to bolster footfall and create a unique customer experience. Therefore, such factors will boost the market growth during the forecast period.
The rise in privacy and security issues is a major challenge impeding market growth. Beacons and iBeacons work on an open platform technology for the smooth and easy sharing of information. Hence, there is a possibility that data can be used by malicious users and competitors to track the customer's private and confidential information without their permission.
The basic design of a beacon device is very simple, which makes it susceptible to imitations. People need to reveal their personal information to advertisers and other third parties to receive coupons, deals, and promotions. This information is shared among players in the IPIN value chain, and this could lead to the leakage of information. Further, the network provider manages and owns the database in which the information is stored. Therefore, the provider himself/herself has access to this information that can be private in nature. Such information can easily be misused. Therefore, data security and privacy at the retailer's end is a serious concern for the global IPIN market, which in turn, can hinder the market growth.
The market growth and trends report includes the adoption lifecycle of the market, covering from the innovator's stage to the laggard's stage. It focuses on adoption rates in different regions based on penetration. Furthermore, the market growth analysis report also includes key purchase criteria and drivers of price sensitivity to help companies evaluate and develop their growth strategies.
Market Customer Landscape
The market share growth by the retail segment will be significant during the forecast period. Beacon devices are installed in shops to enhance the customer experience.
