Full-body scanning poses privacy issues, particularly in open areas like airports. The intrusive technology has provoked arguments over individuals' rights to privacy, curtailing the implementation of full-body scanners. Furthermore, full-body scanning equipment is costly to buy, deploy, and keep up. In addition, the large sums needed may discourage small institutions or establishments from installing the systems.

COVID-19 Impact
The pandemic of COVID-19 presented a curveball to the firms that produce full-body scanners. Initially, the pandemic was a huge freeze on these scanners. People were traveling at a crawl, and individuals were not visiting the doctor for non-emergency purposes. Hospitals and airports, being large purchasers of these scanners, shelved their plans. However, something surprising occurred. Humans came to understand that these scanners had the potential for more than just security. They could be utilized to detect people with fevers and whether people were wearing masks. Therefore, the companies began producing scanners with these new applications in mind. They even installed them in public areas, such as train stations and shopping centers. Ultimately, the pandemic did not damage the full-body scanner market as severely as others predicted. Sure, certain segments of the market were affected, but others expanded. It was a rollercoaster experience, with highs and lows, but overall the industry managed to stay afloat.

Full-body Scanner Market Trends
Full-body scanners are being integrated with next-generation imaging technologies like terahertz imaging, which provides high-resolution images while reducing radiation exposure. This trend improves airport & other high-risk area security and passenger safety. Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) algorithms are also transforming threat detection in full-body scanners. Such technologies can better detect anomalies and potential threats and minimize false alarms to improve security.

There is an emerging need for mobile & portable full-body scanners, especially in law enforcement and border protection. The flexibility of deployment offered by these scanners makes them suitable for diverse security applications. Additionally, manufacturers are tackling privacy issues by creating full-body scanners with privacy-oriented features. These designs ensure personal privacy without compromising on security screening effectiveness.

Full-body Scanner Market Analysis
Discover more about the most important segments driving this market

On the basis of type, the market is divided into single view, dual view, and 3D view. The 3D view segment is projected to grow at a high rate during the forecast period and hold a revenue of more than USD 180 million by 2032.

3D view full-body scanners produce detailed three-dimensional images of the scanned person. This helps security personnel detect hidden objects with accuracy.

The 3D imaging capability gives improved detection accuracy, reducing the likelihood of missing hidden threats. This is especially valuable in high-security environments where accuracy is paramount.

The combination of AI with 3D view scanners allows for real-time threat analysis. AI algorithms can identify suspicious items or activities automatically, making the security process smoother.

3D view scanners can be set up to conform with specific security protocols, enabling the security personnel to set parameters according to threat and risk level
Find out more about the major segments driving this market

Depending on detection, the market is divided into automatic and manual. The manual segment held a whopping market share of more than 60% in 2022 and is expected to increase throughout the forecast period.

Manual full-body scanning detection depends on the skill of human operators inspecting scanned images visually. Experienced staff can detect anomalies and potential threats effectively.
Manual detection enables security staff to quickly respond to emerging threats and shifting security measures. Operators can concentrate on areas of concern and vary their method accordingly.
Human operators can exercise judgment and discretion when reviewing scan results, taking into account specific circumstances and factors that are not picked up by automated systems
Manual detection provides continuous oversight by trained personnel who can respond and take suitable action in real time if a threat is detected.
