Vehicle Scanner Market to Reach USD 2.7 Billion by 2034, Driven by Security Needs and Smart City Growth

The Vehicle Scanner Market driven by rising security needs and AI-powered innovations across border security, infrastructure, and commercial applications.

VANCOUVER, BC, CANADA, August 19, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The global Vehicle Scanner Market is set for strong growth, projected to expand from USD 1.1 billion in 2024 to USD 2.7 billion by 2034, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.50%. Rising security concerns, rapid urban development, and advances in technology are shaping demand for vehicle scanning solutions across industries.

Security and Technology: The Key Growth Drivers

The demand for vehicle scanners is fueled by two major factors – increasing global security threats and rapid improvements in scanning technologies. Governments worldwide are investing heavily in border protection, airport safety, and infrastructure security. For instance, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has increased funding for border security technologies by 20% in recent years.

At the same time, innovations in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning, and Internet of Things (IoT) are making scanners more accurate and efficient. AI-powered systems are reducing false alarms while improving real-time detection. According to Deloitte, adoption of AI-driven security systems is expected to grow by 35% by 2025.
