中国无人机市场将达百亿美元

 BEIJING, June 5 (Xinhua) -- China's robust¹ drone industry is likely to see its market value swell² to 75 billion yuan (11.54 billion U.S. dollars) by 2025, the consultancy iResearch estimated in a research paper.

At the end of 2025, the unmanned aerial vehicles will be applied³ largely in aerial photo shooting, farm chemical spraying and forest protection, as well as security service, according to the research paper.

The report calculated the nation's civilian⁴ drone market had grown by more than 50 percent over the past years, with its product portfolio⁵ becoming increasingly diversified⁶.

The Shenzhen-based technology firm DJI, a leading manufacturer of commercial and recreational drones for aerial photography and videography, accounts for almost 70 percent of the market share worldwide, with Europe and North America its biggest customers.

The paper also outlined several uncertainties⁷ and challenges facing the industry such as inadequate⁸ regulations of low-altitude flying zones in China and narrow applications of drones. Technologies need to be updated to make drone products more durable⁹ and reliable.
