As a key infrastructure in intelligent transportation, smart boom barriers boast broad prospects driven by policies, technological advancements, and rising demand—while addressing industry challenges:

1. Surging Market Scale

   Fueled by policies like China’s Transportation Power Development Plan and needs such as urban parking shortages and old community renovations, China’s smart vehicle barrier market hit 7.6 billion RMB in 2025 (road barriers over 6 billion RMB). By 2030, vehicle barriers may exceed 13 billion RMB, road barriers over 28 billion RMB. Globally, the smart parking barrier market is growing at 8.5% CAGR (2025–2031), set to reach $102 million by 2031.

2. Tech-Infused Experience Upgrades

   Current license plate recognition accuracy exceeds 99%, with top models (e.g., Jieshun’s 6th-gen) achieving 0.3-second response and 0.01% error rate. Future integration with 5G, edge computing, facial recognition, and ETC will enable lower latency and higher precision. Solar-powered models also expand use in off-grid areas.

3. Expanding Application Scenarios

   Beyond parking lots and residential areas, they’re penetrating toll booths, tidal lanes, and transport hubs—supporting lane management and emergency vehicle priority. New energy vehicle growth drives barrier-charger integrated products (projected 3 billion RMB market by 2030), with forays into congestion pricing.

4. Shift to Integrated Services

   Moving from standalone hardware to “hardware + software + services" solutions, barriers connect to urban traffic brains and smart parking platforms, offering real-time data sharing, remote monitoring, and data analytics. By 2030, operational services may account for 35% of industry revenue, with a 5 billion RMB value-added market for traffic data services.

5. Addressing Industry Challenges

   Issues like product homogeneity, poor interoperability between brands, inconsistent standards, and high renovation costs for old parking lots need resolution. The industry must unify standards, with leading enterprises driving innovation and ecological development.
