Though the market is impacted in 2020, it is expected to fully recover by 2021.

X-ray Imaging technology is expected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period

X-ray imaging technology is estimated to have the largest market share by value and is expected to exhibit a similar growth trend during the forecast period.

X-ray imaging systems use radio waves to detect illicit objects that may be hidden under people's clothes. A wide variety of concealed materials, including both metallic and non-metallic threat items, can be detected using x-ray screening systems. Large investments have been made in developing X-ray scanning systems to identify potential threats by people and their luggage. Furthermore, different advancements in x-ray systems that include backscatter, Computed Tomography is one of the driving factors for market growth. This has led to drive the market for x-ray technology.

Retail application is estimated to be the fastest-growing market during the forecast period

The contraband detector market for the retail application is expected to be the fastest-growing market s during the forecast period. The increasing demand for advanced contraband detector systems such as screening devices and metal detectors in retail applications is one of the major driving factors for the contraband detector market. Automatic weapons, car bombs, and biological or chemical agents are a few of the contraband goods used to target crowds at malls and retail shops. This has led to rise in the use of contraband detectors in retail. for example, metal detectors are used for people screening, and X-ray screening systems are deployed for baggage screening. Thus, the increasing adoption of contraband detectors is expected to drive the growth of the retail application segment.
