Such rise in the adoption of the wearable devices highlights the growing need for tiny machine learning that provides essential on-device processing to handle the increasing data from these devices efficiently.
Moreover, the growing use of cloud computing across various industries is fueling the demand for efficient, low-latency AI models that can process data at the edge. TinyML allows for the deployment of machine learning algorithms directly on devices, reducing the dependency on cloud resources, optimizing performance, and lowering operational costs.
As per the report published by Cloud Security Alliance (CSA), global cloud adoption is growing at a significant rate with an estimation of public spending on cloud services expected to grow by 20% from 2022. The surge in cloud adoption drives the demand for efficient and real-time data processing, thereby fuelling the TinyML market growth.
Furthermore, the rising investment in industrial automation, driven by the need for enhanced operational efficiency and cost reduction, is fuelling the demand for edge AI to automate and optimize various processes. TinyML facilitates real-time data analysis and decision-making directly on machinery and equipment, enabling improved monitoring, predictive maintenance, and process control.
According to a report by McKinsey published in 2022, companies are making substantial investments in robotics and automation, with automation costs in many industrial sectors expected to account for 25% of capital spending over the next five years. The surge in investment in industrial automation, boosting the growth of the market.
However, the security concerns hinder the tinyML market expansion as the deployment of these solutions on small, distributed devices increases their vulnerability to cyberattacks and unauthorized access.
On the contrary, the introduction of edge AI applications that require targeted machine learning is anticipated to create future opportunity for the market. By deploying targeted machine learning models at the edge, these applications can perform specific tasks, such as real-time analysis and decision-making, more efficiently.
The tinyML market report is segmented on the basis of component, deployment, end-user, and region. On the basis of component, hardware, software, and services. On the basis of deployment, the market is classified into on-premise and on-cloud. On the basis of end-user, the market is divided into consumer electronics, healthcare, manufacturing, automotive, aerospace & defense, agriculture, energy & utility, and others. Regional breakdown and analysis of each of the aforesaid segments include regions comprising of North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and RoW.
North America dominates the tinyML market share and is expected to continue its dominance during the forecast period. This is attributed to the increasing investment in healthcare for the adoption of advanced healthcare devices for various applications, including remote patient monitoring, medical imaging, and personalized treatment plans.
According to a report from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), the national health expenditure rose to around USD 4.84 trillion in 2023 from USD 4.50 trillion in 2022. This rise in healthcare spending underscores the growing demand for advanced healthcare technologies, thereby propelling the tinyML market growth in the region.
Moreover, the rising investment in artificial intelligent (AI) is further boosting the growth of the market in this region. As AI technologies evolve and become more sophisticated, they enhance the capabilities of tinyML, making it more effective for real-time data processing and analysis on small, low-power devices.
As per the Government of the U.S., the budget for fiscal year 2024 includes significant funding for AI. It allocates USD 3 billion across various agencies to develop, test, and implement AI applications. Additionally, USD 30 million is allocated for the National AI Research Resource program to broaden access to computing and data resources for AI research and innovation.
On the other hand, Asia-Pacific is expected to show a steady growth in the tinyML market trends due to the rising demand for consumer electronics. As more electronic devices, such as smartphones, smartwatches, and home automation products, become prevalent, there is a growing demand for tiny machine learning solutions to provide efficient, real-time data processing.
This growing demand for consumer electronics in the Asia-Pacific region is expected to drive the expansion of the market, as the need for efficient, real-time data processing in these devices continues to rise.
Moreover, the growing demand for advanced technologies in automotive vehicles is driving the growth of the tinyml market. As automotive manufacturers seek to incorporate features such as object detection, lane-keeping assistance, and driver monitoring. TinyML improves response times and reduces the need for constant communication with central systems, enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of automotive safety and autonomous driving features.
According to the report published by the International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (OICA) the production of vehicles in countries such as China reached 30.17 million, in India 5.85 million and in Japan 9 million in 2023 from 27 million in China, 5.45 million in India and 7.83 million in Japan in 2022. The surge in vehicle production among various countries drives the demand for advanced and autonomous driving feature, fuelling the growth of the market.
