The continuous improvement in ML models, fueled by increased computational power and access to extensive training data, is leading to more efficient and effective assistive technologies.
The North American robotic rehabilitation and assistive technologies market, amongst the markets in all the other regions, is projected to hold the largest market share. The market's growth can be attributed majorly to the rising chronic disease prevalence coupled with the escalating geriatric population, and a strong healthcare industry is expected to drive the market's growth in North America during the forecast period. For instance, the U.S. has more than 54 million adults aged 65 and older, or roughly 16.5% of the population in 2022, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Apart from that, the region's higher prevalence of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), backed by the growth in robotic rehabilitation and assistive technologies owing to the ongoing development of robotics in North America, is projected to enlarge the market's size during the forecast period. As of 2019, nearly 40% of the population in the U.S.A. was diagnosed with cardiovascular diseases, and approximately 6 million people lost their lives owing to stroke in a similar year. Therefore, all these factors are expected to drive market growth in the region during the forecast period.

InsightAce Analytic follows a standard and comprehensive market research methodology focused on offering the most accurate and precise market insights. The methods followed for all our market research studies include three significant steps – primary research, secondary research, and data modeling and analysis - to derive the current market size and forecast it over the forecast period. In this study, these three steps were used iteratively to generate valid data points (minimum deviation), which were cross-validated through multiple approaches mentioned below in the data modeling section.
Through secondary research methods, information on the market under study, its peer, and the parent market was collected. This information was then entered into data models. The resulted data points and insights were then validated by primary participants.
Based on additional insights from these primary participants, more directional efforts were put into doing secondary research and optimize data models. This process was repeated till all data models used in the study produced similar results (with minimum deviation). This way, this iterative process was able to generate the most accurate market numbers and qualitative insights.
Secondary research
The secondary research sources that are typically mentioned to include, but are not limited to:
The paid sources for secondary research like Factiva, OneSource, Hoovers, and Statista
Primary Research:
Primary research involves telephonic interviews, e-mail interactions, as well as face-to-face interviews for each market, category, segment, and subsegment across geographies
