Report Overview

The global emotion detection and recognition market size was valued at USD 32.95 billion in 2021 and is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.7% from 2022 to 2030. Emotion detection and recognition have gained significant prominence in recent years owing to prominent advancements in Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). The increasing adoption of biometrics is the prominent factor driving the growth of the industry. The growing use of voice-driven and gesture-driven navigation systems and workstations is impelling growth in the software and hardware segments.

Furthermore, significant expansion in IoT-based technologies increased the adoption of wearable technologies, and a massive increase in smartphone usage is also fostering the growth of the industry. Emotion detection and recognition is a software-based technique that enables an organization with human emotion detection using computer vision, deep learning algorithms, and AI to read facial expressions. Aside from happiness, rage, and sorrow, emotion detection and identification software would also look at micro-expressions like disdain and contempt.

During the engagement process between people and machine communication systems, understanding emotions are critical. Emotion recognition software not only improves human-computer interfaces but also improves the actions made by computers in response to user feedback. The rising demand for speech-based emotion detection systems to analyze emotional states, global adoption of AI, IoT, deep learning, and machine learning technologies, increasing need in the field of automotive artificial intelligence, increasing requirement for socially intelligent artificial agents, and high operational excellence are among the major factors driving the market growth.

Component Insights

In terms of revenue, the software segment held the largest revenue share of over 66% in 2021. This dominant share of the segment is attributable to the increasing consumer preference for the in-house installation of the systems. Based on components, the market is segmented into software and services. IoT-based technologies also facilitate monitoring and responding to all devices following the actions and emotions of a person.

The devices transmit data without human intervention, such as sensor input that controls the output of a remote industrial process. Emotion-sensing technology is progressing to reality from an experimental phase. For example, Apple Inc.'s virtual assistant 'Siri' is designed to create how emotions are presented on the mood-tracking app named Moodnotes. Subsequently, it would help to boost the application of emotion recognition.

Tools Insights

In terms of revenue, the speech & voice recognition segment accounted for the highest share of 43.8% in 2021. Likewise, facial expression and recognition provide fast and accurate results, reliable matching, a non-contact process, and various applications such as border control, crime-fighting, law enforcement agencies, and access control.

Furthermore, some primary advantages of facial expression recognition systems are reduced fraud, improved security, an automated facial system, simple integration, and a high success rate. The government and defense sectors are significantly investing in facial recognition technology, and technological advancements are becoming more prevalent across all industry verticals. These are the main drivers propelling the growth of the facial recognition market.

Technology Insights

The Natural Language Processing (NLP) segment held the largest revenue share of 26.4% in 2021. Advanced technologies such as natural language processing, computational linguistics, and affective computing also foster R&D activities in emotion detection & recognition technologies. Based on technology, the market was segmented into feature extraction, pattern recognition, biosensors technology, natural language processing, and machine learning.

The AI-based technology industry is also likely to grow as the system effectively analyses emotional patterns. Artificial intelligence translates patterns into well-structured algorithms by performing steps such as representing pattern units, formulating and developing recognition algorithms, and demonstrating accurate inputs. The AI-based emotion detection and recognition industry is predicted to rise due to advancements in machine learning and natural language processing.

Application Insights

The surveillance and monitoring segment held the largest share of over 27% in 2021 in terms of revenue. Based on applications emotion detection and recognition market is segmented into surveillance and monitoring, marketing and advertising, robotics and E-learning, medical emergency, and others.

The marketing and advertising segment is estimated to witness a prominent growth rate during the forecast period. Recognizing how customers feel has become a critical corporate goal. When making major choices, businesses must keep the perspective of their customers in mind. Exploring the consumer perspective requires using emotion detection and identification technologies in corporate marketing and advertising.

End-use Vertical Insights
