A Compass is an instrument which is used for orientation and navigation that shows the directions north, south, east-west. Magnetic compass functions as a pointer to the magnetic north due to the magnetic needle aligns itself with the earth magnetic field. The needle is placed on a low friction pivot point so that it can turn easily. The needle turns for a few seconds and settles when the compass is in an equilibrium position. While in navigation, the directions on maps are usually expressed concerning the geographical or true north, the direction towards the geographical north pole, the rotation axis of the earth. Depending on the magnetic compass location the angle between the true north and magnetic north can vary with geographical location.

Global Magnetic Compass Market size:

Global magnetic compass market size is projected to reach approximately $XX million by the end of 2024 from $XX million in 2017 with a CAGR of close to XX% during the forecast timeline 2019-2024. High consumption due to technological advancements, increase in demand for magnetic compass for geological survey and rise in military expansion in Middle East & Africa are some the drivers enhances the growth of the magnetic compass market. On the flip side, increase in fake products in the market, and lack of efficiency and accuracy in stringent and harsh working environment are some of the restraints hampering the growth of the present magnetic compass market. The rise in magnetic compass in various new applications and emerging economies are the opportunities that boost the growth of the market during the forecast period (2019-2024).
