Vision Processing Unit Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the Global Vision Processing Unit Market is estimated to reach USD 23.54 billion by 2034 with a CAGR of 21.31%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Global Vision Processing Unit Market, including market size and trends, product mix, Applications, and supplier analysis. The market for vision processing units was valued at USD 3.41 billion in 2024 and is projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.31% between 2025 and 2034. The demand for smart surveillance systems, the spread of AI-driven solutions, and the growing use of IoT devices are the main drivers of the VPU market's expansion. VPUs are also used in border security systems, where they improve the capacity to identify and address possible threats by enabling sophisticated monitoring and surveillance features.
By Fabrication Process Insights
In 2024, the market leader with the biggest global revenue share was the 16–28 nm sector. In order to fit more transistors on a device, smaller fabrication nodes increase processing speed and computational capacity, both of which are critical for vision processing tasks. These smaller nodes also provide better power efficiency, crucial for mobile and embedded vision systems where energy use is a key concern. The 16-28 nm technique enables more compact designs, resulting in adaptable VPUs for smartphones, drones, and automotive systems. The ≤16 nm segment is expected to show significant growth during the forecast period. Older processes, larger than 16 nm, are cost-effective, making them suitable for applications needing less performance. VPUs using these older processes remain in use in legacy and lower-end devices, where cost is the priority over advanced performance.
By Application Insights
In 2024, smartphones accounted for the greatest portion of the market's revenue due to the demand for improved user experiences, cutting-edge technologies, and power efficiency. The growth of AR and VR applications in smartphones demands robust vision processing for seamless experiences. AI features like facial recognition and advanced image improvements boost the demand for efficient VPUs that can handle intricate tasks. The AR/VR market is expected to expand at the quickest rate during the forecast period since these applications need a lot of computing power to process images and videos in real time.
By Vertical Insights
The consumer electronics segment held the greatest market revenue share in 2024. Devices with VPUs have better imaging and video capabilities, such as smartphones and smart cameras. The demand for real-time processing of sophisticated algorithms has increased as a result of these processors' support for AI-driven features. The rise of smart home devices also boosts the need for VPUs for tasks like video analytics. The security and surveillance segment is expected to experience the highest growth, as real-time video processing is vital for identifying threats, with VPUs providing the needed power for advanced analytics. The demand for high-definition cameras in these systems also drives the need for effective VPU management of high-resolution video streams.
Regional Insights
North America held the most revenue share in 2024.The usage of VPUs with advanced features is encouraged by the region's strong concentration on research and development in areas like artificial intelligence, machine learning, and sophisticated imaging. Additionally, demand for North America's VPU market—which can manage high-performance, real-time video processing—is being driven by the expansion of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) applications, especially in gaming, entertainment, and professional training.
Market Competitive Landscape
Key companies in the vision processing unit market include Qualcomm, Intel, and NVIDIA. These companies are actively trying to grow their customer base and gain an advantage over competitors by forming partnerships, merging, acquiring, collaborating, and developing new products. For instance, Nikon introduced an industrial robot vision system with a camera-like sensor on a robot arm in May 2024. This system can recognize objects through image processing and make decisions, improving the robot's visual and cognitive abilities.
Recent Developments:
In June 2023, Intel launched its 13th Gen Intel Core mobile processors, highlighted by the flagship Intel Core i9-13980HX, the first 24-core processor for laptops. These H-series processors offer up to 5.6GHz turbo frequency and will include the Intel Movidius vision processing unit in some designs.
