According to our latest market study on “Real-Time Location System Market Forecast to 2028 – COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis – by Offering, Technology, Industry Vertical, and Application,” the market is expected to grow from US$ 4,097.3 million in 2021 to US$ 18,878.4 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 24.4% during 2021–2028.

Increasing Deployment of Ultra-Wideband (UWB) Based Real-Time Location System to Drive Market Growth during Forecast Period
A real-time location system helps monitor and locate the objects and interactions as they happen. The system utilizes various technologies, such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, infrared, and RFID, to establish communication. However, end users from numerous industries, such as logistics, manufacturing, healthcare, automotive, and entertainment, are increasingly shifting toward the use of ultra-wideband (UWB) based real-time location systems. The ultra-wideband (UWB) Hardware offers accurate positioning details of assets/personnel/objects, which is one of the major factors driving the adoption of ultra-wideband (UWB) based real-time location systems. Also, the ultra-wideband (UWB) provides a higher range and accuracy along with lower power consumption than other real-time location system technologies, such as RFID, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, infrared, which has led to an increase in penetration in high accuracy applications. The cost of the Hardware was restraining the adoption of the ultra-wideband (UWB) based real-time location system. However, lately, the cost has gradually declined over the last few years, which is driving the growth of the real-time location system.

The real-time location systems market players were experiencing significant demand from the end users until the outbreak of COVID-19. Owing to the outbreak, governments across the world imposed various containment measures. While in some countries the governments imposed complete lockdown, a few countries experienced partial lockdown. Therefore, businesses were allowed to operate with regulations. Moreover, the supply chain of the real-time location systems was not affected from software side, as regular updates were rolled out by market players. However, the hardware side of real-time location systems was disrupted as manufacturing facilities of hardware were closed or were operating with limited workforce. Further, as major industries witnessed decline in revenue, the adoption real-time location systems were on the lower side. Meanwhile, as economies reopened and containment measures were relaxed, the real-time location system market started to witness a positive growth in 2021.
