Wireless communications to drive embedded computer growth
The global embedded computer market is positively affected by its increasing application in sectors like transportation, energy, telecom, and medical technology. Growing internet usage has led service providers to provide higher bandwidth and high-speed internet access by integrating the fast processing embedded systems in their back-end systems and networks.
The growing wireless communication infrastructure is the key driver for the growth of embedded computer market. Since embedded computers are an important component of telecom devices, their increasing implementation in sectors like telecom and transport is expected to result in market growth during the forecast period.
Analysts estimate the Americas to lead the global embedded computers market during the forecast period. This region accounts for a market share of nearly 40% by 2019 and is closely followed by the APAC and the EMEA region. The increasing significance of standards-based systems and its expansion in application sectors such as transportation, medical, and energy are expected to account for this region’s high market share during the forecast period.
The embedded computer market is fragmented and contains multiple local and multinational vendors. Recently, it has been observed that the presence of limited target customers in this market is intensifying the competition among the vendors. This is expected to generate a price war, which will result in the low bargaining power of vendors.
Some of the key vendors in the embedded computer market include Advantech, ADLINK, Eurotech, Artesyn Embedded Computing, Kontron, Mercury, and Radisys.
Further, the embedded computer market report states that since general-purpose computers are exceedingly used for various applications, this has resulted in shrinking the target market for embedded computers, which in turn has intensified the market competition.
