Self-driving Industrial Vehicles Market Research Insights by 2027

Self-driving Industrial Vehicles: Introduction

  • Self-driving industrial vehicles also known as autonomous industrial vehicles or driverless vehicles use an arrangement of cameras, sensors, artificial intelligence (AI), and radars, to travel between destinations, without the need for any human effort.
  • Self-driving industrial vehicles are used mostly by industries where stringent safety requirements and regulations that exist for passenger self-driving industrial vehicles either do not exist or are less restrictive. These industries include, but are not limited to retail, agriculture, logistics and delivery, manufacturing, commercial freight transport, public transport, and mining.
  • The global self-driving industrial vehicles market is projected to expand at a rapid pace during the forecast period due to continuous research and development in autonomous industrial vehicle technologies over the past two decades.
