The Global Counter IED Market 2012-2022 report provides detailed analysis of the global counter IED market over the next ten years, alongside potential market opportunities to enter the industry, using detailed market size forecasts.
The report states that the global counter IED market is expected to be worth US$3.6 billion by 2022. The demand for counter IED equipment is anticipated to be driven by internal and external security threats, territorial disputes, modernisation initiatives, technological innovations and a substantial demand for counter IED systems for coalition forces in Afghanistan. The market is expected to be dominated by North America, followed by Europe and Asia-Pacific.
According to the 155 page report, North America accounts for the highest spending in the global counter IED market. Most of the expenditure can be attributed to the US, with Canada accounting for a small share. Both the US and Canada have allocated a major portion of their counter IED budget towards saving the lives of their soldiers deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan for peace keeping missions. A major share of expenditure is focused on areas such as counter IED vehicles, detection systems, electronic jammers, and other bomb-foiling technologies and unmanned systems. However, the expenditure on counter IED initiatives is expected to decline with the withdrawal of forces from Iraq and Afghanistan.

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
