COVID-19 Impact Analysis
Global embedded processor market has been significantly impacted by the COVID-19 outbreak. The production facilities of the electronics and semiconductors have been halted, owing to the slowdown and unavailability of the workforce across the globe. COVID-19 outbreak has caused a significant and protracted drop in manufacturing utilization, and travel bans & facility closures kept workers out of their factories, which led to slowdown in the growth of the market in 2020.
The Asian and European countries under lockdowns have suffered in major loss of business and revenue, due to the shutdown of manufacturing units in the region. The operations of the production and manufacturing industries have been heavily impacted by the outbreak of the COVID-19 disease; thereby, leading to slowdown in the growth of the embedded processor market in 2020.
However, the negative impact of COVID-19 on the embedded processor market is expected to be there for a short period of time, and by early 2021 the market is anticipated to observe robust recovery rate along with the extensive demand for embedded processor in post-pandemic. For instance, the need for ventilator along with the other advanced medical equipment has rapidly increased across the world. This is anticipated to positively impact the embedded processor market as a number of embedded hardware components are used in the manufacture of advanced ventilators as well as other medical equipment such as medical robots.
