Analysts take into account sales of products such as computer-aided design (CAD) systems, automation systems for technological preparation of production (CAM ), software for solving various engineering problems (calculations, analysis and simulation of physical processes), as well as programs for image and video processing, three-dimensional (3D) modeling and rendering.

The authors of the study call the key drivers of the industry technological innovations, the development of remote and hybrid work models, the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning, increased attention to cybersecurity and data privacy, as well as the development of augmented and virtual reality applications.
