APAC LiDAR Market Analysis

The Asia Pacific LiDAR Market size is estimated at USD 2.93 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 7.62 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 21.06% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

LiDAR-based mapping solutions are agile and can be used on a stationary or moving vehicle. Owing to this, they are being adopted by a growing number of industries, especially for application in engineering, construction, environment, and exploration, proving the effectiveness and, therefore, demand for this technology.

  • These LiDARs are also used for the planning of field campaigns and mapping under the forest canopy. Spain-based scientists improved the annual and seasonal mapping accuracy with LiDAR data (from 73% to 83%). Moreover, another major driving factor for the LiDAR market is the increasing use of drones for multiple applications, such as aerospace and defense and automation, which are leading organizations to invest in drone research.
  • In this region, LiDAR system applications are also being deployed in defense, geological surveys, pollution monitoring, transport, energy, and construction sectors, coupled with drones. Additionally, countries such as India and China are expected to increase, speeding an average of USD 7 billion in drone technology for defense in the forecast period.
  • In Malaysia, the government has been using LiDAR to map the water table depth, flood risk in coastal areas, and canal-blocking restoration requirements. The increase in such adoption of LiDAR systems by governments across different countries in the region is expected to positively contribute to the market's growth over the forecast period.
  • Japan's Mitsubishi Electric Corporation unveiled a new compact LiDAR solution for autonomous vehicles, equipped with MEMS that can enhance the horizontal vision span and pedestrian detection capabilities of the self-driving vehicle, with a volume of around 900cc. The company is also planning to develop a smaller LiDAR variant with a volume of just 350cc or less.
  • Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic led to lockdowns all over the world. This disrupted the exports of automotive parts as well as the manufacturing process. Moreover, the expensive nature of the systems is challenging the adoption of these systems. Companies such as Ford and Baidu were investing in these systems to develop low-cost LiDAR systems.
