The digital holography market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• In recent times, the size of the digital holography market has experienced a significant expansion. The market is projected to surge from a net worth of $4.96 billion in 2024 to $5.76 billion in 2025, revealing a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.3%.
The historic development can be credited to factors such as increasing demand in the field of medical imaging, widening industrial applications, the incorporation in automotive and aerospace sectors, as well as heightened awareness and education.
The digital holography market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• The market size for digital holography is predicted to experience substantial growth over the next few years, shooting up to $12.39 billion in 2029, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.1%.
This predicted expansion in the forecast period can be ascribed to progress in the automotive sector, emerging utility in consumer electronics, advancements in computational holography, and enlarging applications in automotive and aerospace fields. The forecast period is also expected to manifest trends like an increased uptake in medical imaging, progress in 3D display technology, widening usage in automotive applications, escalating exploit in holographic microscopy for research, and applications in security and authentication.
The rise in surgical procedures is expected to fuel the expansion of the digital holography market. Surgical operations, which involve modifying body tissues, are utilized to diagnose, cure, or thwart maladies and injuries. Increased access to healthcare, superior diagnostic abilities, and the high incidence of chronic diseases are among the many reasons for the surge in surgical procedures. By providing comprehensive imaging and boosting surgical accuracy, digital holography significantly contributes to improved surgical results and caters to the escalating demand for surgeries. For example, in March 2023, the British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, a UK-based body that ensures safety and education in cosmetic surgery, reported a considerable growth in the number of cosmetic procedures carried out in 2022. The data showed that the UK performed 31,057 cosmetic procedures in 2022, a striking rise of 102% from the previous year. Women accounted for 93% of all cosmetic procedures conducted in 2022, demonstrating a substantial increase of 101% compared to 2021. Consequently, the escalating number of surgical procedures is driving the growth of the digital holography market.
