Published By: Brisk Insights | Published On: Apr 14, 2022

 

Smartphone has become a necessity for every individual in modern day world. People across the globe are using smartphones for their everyday activities such as ticket bookings, e-commerce, and many other activities. Due to its extensive use, retail companies too are searching innovative channels to connect to their customers through their smartphones. Adoptions of Bluetooth low energy (BLE) devices for one-way communication is one such technique preferred by the retail companies for customer engagement. Bluetooth beacon is a device equipped with BLE which broadcasts the messages through Bluetooth directly to the smartphones in its vicinity. Brand promotion and information sharing are few of the applications which are getting promoted in recent times.

 

Today, retail companies duly emphasize on promoting their products among the potential customers. This has been the key driver for the proliferation of Bluetooth beacon market. Bluetooth beacons are installed in shopping malls and other public places where retail organizations can attract potential customers. The devices work by broadcasting promotional messages (such as offers and discounts) to the customers’ mobile devices. In addition, Bluetooth beacons are installed at places such as airports and other public infrastructure for broadcasting any important instructions directly to their smartphones. Other potential applications of Bluetooth beacon include sports and concert arenas, trade shows and conferences, schools, and museums among others. The setup and working cost of Bluetooth beacon is economical resulting into limited market restraints. Manufacturers are further developing more energy efficient and cost-effective Bluetooth beacons. It is expected that with improved technical specification and further reduced cost, the technology will continue to grow across different applications.

Eddystone, an open source Bluetooth beacon technology was launched by Google for Android platform in July 2015. This Bluetooth beacon is capable of operating on both IOS as well as for Android platform for broadcasting messages directly to the smartphone within its permissible proximity. Open source Bluetooth beacon is gaining its popularity because of its versatility and low cost. Consequently, the open platform is estimated to emerge as the fastest growing segment of the market, surpassing the closed source platform segment during the forecast period.

 

The global Bluetooth beacon market is segmented, based on its application, into following categories:

 

  • Retail
  • Public Infrastructure
  • Others (Indoor Navigation, Healthcare)

 

Retail application segment leads the overall Bluetooth beacon market, in terms of revenue, as of 2016. The retail industry is one of the first end-users to adopt the Bluetooth beacon technology for promoting their sales. Bluetooth beacon is an easy, economical as well as safe approach for targeting the intended customers through promotional information broadcasted directly on their smartphones. In addition, availability on both the platforms aided the retailers to expand their marketing reach. Consequently, use of Bluetooth beacon for retail industry has exhibited its dominance and is expected to lead the market throughout the forecast period.

 

As of 2016, application of Bluetooth beacon used for public infrastructure succeeds the retail segment. Bluetooth beacon technology is still in its developing stages and a variety of applications are being explored. Bluetooth beacons are applied for sharing important instruction to the people in places such as airports, sports and concert arenas, trade shows and conferences, schools, as well as in museums.

 

The global Bluetooth beacon market has been segmented, on the basis of geographical regions, as per following regions and countries:

 

  • North America 
    • U.S.
    • Canada
  • Europe 
    • U.K.
    • Germany
