Global Automotive Rear Cross Traffic Alert System Market 2016-2020: Urgency in Improving Rear Visibilities - NHTSA Makes Backup Cameras Mandatory by 2018

Dublin, Oct. 13, 2016 -- Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Global Automotive Rear Cross Traffic Alert System Market 2016-2020" report to their offering.

The global automotive rear cross traffic alert system (RCTAS) market to grow at a CAGR of 10.33% during the period 2016-2020.

The RCTAS is an extension of blind spot detection (BSD) systems, which is a type of collision avoidance system. Hence, the evolution of this system can be linked to that of BSD systems. The primary functional features of both systems are similar, except that the BSD is used for monitoring front sides of the vehicle; whereas, the RCTAS is developed for rear sides of the vehicle. BSD is also known as blind spot information, side assist, side blind zone alert, blind spot warning, and active blind spot monitoring system.

The report covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global automotive rear cross traffic alert system (RCTAS) market for 2016-2020. To calculate the market size, the report considers a top-down approach, where the market is derived from the overall automotive RCTAS application volume. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.

Evolution in sensor and microcontroller technology will be a key trend for market growth. Technology in the fields of automotive sensors and microcontrollers is evolving at a rapid pace. The designers and developers of automotive electronics are continuously working on improving the technology to make safety systems imbibing these components more fool proof in functionality. The application of imaging sensors is certainly going to proliferate in step with the advances in the appearance of sensors
