Under Vehicle Inspection Systems (UVIS) Market Definition

Imagine under-vehicle inspection (UVI) systems as special eyes, imaging devices really, planted on roads, especially at checkpoints for places that need serious security. Think of them as a way to spot trouble – like bombs – lurking beneath vehicles. Security folks, or even smart computer systems, use cameras to grab pictures of the vehicle's underside, letting someone (or something!) take a good look. You can find them built right into the road (permanent), stuck on top (fixed), or even moved around (portable, or mobile). You might hear them called UVI, UVIS (under-vehicle inspection systems), AUVIS (automated under-vehicle inspection systems), MUVIS (mobile under-vehicle inspection systems), or even UVSS (under vehicle surveillance system) – all just different names for the same thing. Funny storyback in the day, UVSS and CUVSS (color under vehicle surveillance system) were actually trademarks of the Chemring Group, until they changed things up in 2011. So, how do they work? As a vehicle rolls up and drives over the imaging unit, the cameras snap pictures of what's underneath and send them to a control unit. That control unit then shows the images on a monitor, which could be right there at the checkpoint or tucked away in a guardhouse. Depending on the UVIS system, those undercarriage pictures can be saved for later or even zoomed in on if there's something suspicious and the vehicle needs to be held up.

Global Under Vehicle Inspection Systems (UVIS) Market Overview

Under vehicle inspection systems, or UVIS, are like a high-tech peek under your car, helping to spot hidden dangers like bombs. Think of it as a way for security folks, or even smart systems, to snap pictures of your vehicle's undercarriage for a good look, either by hand or automatically. What's driving the demand for these systems? Well, unfortunately, it's due to increasing worries about car-related terrorism, drug and weapon smuggling, and a general desire for better vehicle security. That said, the market isn't without its bumps in the road. The complexity of these systems and some hesitation to spend money on surveillance tech might slow things down a bit. Governments and places that draw crowds are extra concerned about potential terrorist attacks at crowded spots, government buildings, airports, high-security locations, and more. Sadly, vehicles are often used by terrorists to get past security, deliver nasty stuff, or cause explosions. That's why the UVIS system comes into play – to sniff out threats and lower the risk of related harm.

With more vehicle-related threats popping up, folks are really starting to pay attention to keeping things secure around the edges. Protecting buildings and vital infrastructure is becoming a bigger deal, and putting vehicle inspection systems at entrances is helping to lower the risks. Plus, governments worldwide are putting serious money into border security and securing major events, since, sadly, these are often targets. Take the Government of the United Kingdom, for example—they've invested a whopping USD 910 million in beefing up border infrastructure with security measures. And according to trade.gov, the UK government announced plans in July 2020 to make its border the most effective one out there by 2025. Because of all this, you're seeing both governments and private companies investing in advanced equipment to make sure everyone stays safer.

Think about it – as under-vehicle inspection tech gets better and new surveillance systems pop up, we're going to see a bigger need for under-vehicle inspection systems (UVIS). Tech like license plate readers and chassis comparison systems (the stuff that makes things more secure) is really driving things forward. Take UVeye, for example – a big name in UVIS – they're using artificial intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) to check cars from underneath, outside, and even the tires. This helps them spot vehicle problems, find hidden illegal items (like explosives!), and more. The downside? Not enough surveillance systems are being used, especially in developing countries, and that's holding the market back a bit.
