Dublin, Oct. 28, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Robotic Wheelchairs Market Report 2024" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The robotic wheelchairs market size has grown strongly in recent years, from $11.3 billion in 2023 to $12.27 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to increased awareness of mobility solutions, investments in the research and development of advanced mobility devices, rising healthcare expenditures, growing urban populations, and improved insurance policies covering these needs.
The robotic wheelchairs market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years, growing to $17.13 billion in 2028 at a CAGR of 8.7%. The growth during the forecast period can be attributed to the development of infrastructure, the expansion of e-commerce platforms, enhanced safety features, an increased focus on rehabilitation, and the emphasis on remote health monitoring features in wheelchairs.
Major trends in the forecast period include advancements in battery technologies, the creation of eco-friendly wheelchair solutions, voice-activated robotic wheelchairs, advanced mapping technologies, and the use of lightweight materials.
The growing patient population is expected to drive the expansion of the robotic wheelchair market. This patient pool refers to the total number of individuals in a specific demographic or healthcare setting who require medical care or attention. Factors such as population growth, aging demographics, and increased access to healthcare services contribute to the rising patient pool. Robotic wheelchairs offer enhanced mobility and independence to patients, allowing them to navigate their environments with adaptive technology that addresses physical limitations. For example, in May 2023, according to a report by the American Hospital Association (AHA), a US-based healthcare trade organization representing hospitals and healthcare networks, total admissions in U.S. hospitals reached 34,011,386, up from 33,356,853 in 2022. Thus, an increasing patient pool will drive growth in the robotic wheelchair market.
Leading companies in the robotic wheelchair market are developing power wheelchairs with advanced features such as AI integration and autonomous navigation to enhance mobility and independence for individuals with disabilities. Power wheelchairs are electrically powered mobility devices that assist those with mobility impairments by providing independent movement. For instance, in January 2024, Robooter, a US-based medical equipment manufacturer, introduced its innovative X40 power wheelchair at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES 2024) in Las Vegas. The X40 is a semi-outdoor, electrically foldable wheelchair designed to tackle lower limb mobility challenges. It features omnidirectional wheels, remote control, configurable maximum speed for safety, ample legroom, and smooth operation on various terrains without requiring a large turning radius. It also boasts a long-lasting battery and a user-friendly interface.
In June 2024, Platinum Equity, a US-based private equity firm, acquired Sunrise Medical for an undisclosed amount. This acquisition aims to invest in advanced clinical mobility solutions tailored to individual needs. Sunrise Medical, a Germany-based manufacturer of medical equipment, specializes in designing, manufacturing, and distributing advanced assistive mobility devices and solutions, including robotic wheelchairs.
