The global contactless thermometer market size was US$ 528.0 million in 2021. The global contactless thermometer market is forecast to reach the value of 1373.3 million by 2030 by registering a Compound Annual Growth rate (CAGR) of 11.1% during the forecast period from 2022 to 2030.

A contactless thermometer helps in obtaining the temperature of the body by scanning the infrared heat emission. The obtained results are in the digital format displayed on a liquid crystal display (LCD) screen. 

Factors Influencing

• The increasing demand for advanced technologies to determine accurate results is forecast to fuel the market growth. 
• The cost-efficiency of contactless thermometers is driving the demand for the technology worldwide. 
• The simplicity of the contact-less thermometers would be the prominent reason driving the popularity of the technology. Contactless thermometers can be easily used by any person and do not require additional training to operate and figure out the results. 
• The growing healthcare infrastructure and government initiatives would benefit the companies offering contactless thermometers. 
• The growing population and increasing awareness about home care are driving the growth of the contactless thermometer market. 
• The availability of efficient alternatives for contactless thermometers is forecast to hamper the growth of the global contactless thermometers market. 
• The increasing pervasiveness of infectious diseases is propelling the growth of the global contactless thermometer market.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis
