Which Market drivers have played a significant role in driving the satellite navigation system market?

The growing popularity of autonomous vehicles is expected to propel the growth of the satellite navigation system market going forward. An autonomous vehicle is a type of vehicle equipped with sensors and technology that enable it to perceive its surroundings and navigate without human intervention. Autonomous vehicles commonly utilize satellite navigation systems to determine their precise location, navigate to their destinations, and navigate safely and efficiently by providing precise positioning information. For instance, in August 2022, according to a report published by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, a US-based non-profit organization for road safety, there will be 3.5 million self-driving automobiles on American highways by 2025 and 4.5 million by 2030. Therefore, the growing popularity of autonomous vehicles is driving the growth of the satellite navigation system market.
