COVID-19 Impact:

Leaders in the drone business have identified additional unprecedented drone uses after the widespread COVID epidemic. Drones are being used in more sectors around the world than ever before to accomplish vital jobs more effectively. The COVID-19 pandemic was a frightening scenario for the whole world; therefore, government agencies worked tirelessly to improve healthcare facilities, hospital infrastructure, and primary treatment facilities all across the world. Drones are being used to offer healthcare and other health-related services, which is a relatively new application of this technology.

Drones provide a viable way for health service providers to enhance their efficiency and capacity to provide services to patients, particularly those in difficult-to-reach regions. For instance, Zipline, a drone delivery business, announced new agreements with Walmart in the U.S. and Toyota in Japan in July 2021, as well as a collaboration with Pfizer to build and test a COVID vaccination delivery technology. Two million vaccination doses are expected to be delivered by the firm.

Drivers & Restraints

Increasing Acceptance of Drones in Air Logistics Services to Incite Development

The market is expected to increase due to rising need for lightweight and quicker delivery and transportation for logistics. Spicexpress, the cargo business of airline Spicejet, stated in June 2021 that a commercial drone delivery trial project will begin by the end of the year. Spicexpress, an air cargo company, and delivery, e-commerce logistics platform, have inked a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to develop drone delivery capabilities in India. Spicexpress' freight business is one of the major consortiums selected by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to undertake experiments on beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) drones in the U.S.

For the past few years, the economic potential of tiny drones has gained widespread attention across sectors. Drone autonomy is changing operating methods and enabling new commercial uses. Drones are widely utilized in industries such as media, entertainment, advertising, precision agriculture, real estate, surveying, construction, remote sensing, environmental monitoring, emergency management and disaster response, and forest monitoring. The commercial drone business, which includes drones used for anything from mapping vineyards to monitoring construction, fared far better in the face of the pandemic in 2020, rising 23 percent, up from 18 percent in 2018.
However, high costs of components and devices may hinder market growth.
