The global digital compass market size is anticipated to grow significantly during the forecast period, 2021-2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the growing demand for digital compass technology and its wide adoption in various handheld smart devices such as smartphones, tablets, watches, and other electronic devices.

Digital compasses are tools primarily designed and used for the determination of geographic direction or navigation. These tools were initially introduced by sailors and sea travelers for direction guidance. The navigators of their respective ships used the concept of magnetic poles along with the alignment of stars and wind direction to determine their current location and destination direction.

Digital Compass Market Outlook

The magnetic needles are free to pivot according to the earth’s magnetic field and this alignment was studied by the navigators to travel at sea. The same concept is now widely adopted in the latest smart devices where magnetic fields are now replaced by electric signals emitted from the devices.

Majority of smart electronic devices are equipped with navigational features as a basic component. Electronic compasses also enhance the position of the global positioning system or the GPS of every device. This makes the electronic compasses extremely useful in applications based on location.

Market Trends, Drivers, Restraints, and Opportunities

  • Rising deployment of new technology and innovations like the Long Term Evolution (LTE) and the Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) to improve location-based tracking present a key driver to the digital compass market.
  • Introduction of new applications like the “View” for smartphones improves convenience and ease to use for the customers while using their smart devices in term of location tracking. This application utilizes both the camera and the compass of the device and allows retrieving relevant information that are available for the user in their immediate surroundings. These applications also act as a driver for the digital compass market growth.
  • The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the manufacturing units across industries and impacted a sharp decline in the digital compass market. This is expected to hamper the market growth. However, the market started to recover gradually due to reopening of the manufacturing units with the permission from the concerned government agencies.
  • Lack of awareness for the use of the compass and inaccessibility to smart devices from the elderly population pose a challenge that can hamper the market growth.

Some key integrators & end-users are Apple, Sony, BAE Systems, Garmin, Seagate, Panasonic, Mitsubishi Precision, and Siemens.

Due to the pandemic, many companies have decided to expand their manufacturing hub outside China and find new locations to begin their manufacturing processes. India emerges as one of the most attractive countries because of the presence of high youth population and skilled labors. According to a source, 75% of India’s population would represent the youth and working age by 2028.

Asia Pacific to register a high CAGR

In terms of regions, the global digital compass market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific is expected to exhibit a substantial CAGR by registering a high CAGR in the digital compass market. Major economies including India, China, and South Korea have emerged key destinations for the establishment of the manufacturing units from industries especially the electronic sector.

Rising use of mobile networks and smart devices, which are equipped with the GPS and other navigational devices, among a large portion of the population in the region act as key driving factors for the regional market expansion. Favorable policies from governments of these countries present key opportunities that offer various benefits of GPS and digital compasses manufacturers.
