Images captured using low-megapixel cameras have numerous drawbacks. The image quality of such images reduces while zooming in, cropping, or taking prints. Hence, the demand for high-megapixel cameras is growing. Manufacturers either have to increase the chip size or shrink the pixel pitch to increase the number of pixels. A larger chip size incurs a higher cost, so the only way to produce an image with high resolution and low cost is to shrink the pixel pitch, which is a complex and expensive process. In most cases, the shrinking of pixel pitch results in a reduced photo-sensing area, which affects the image performance. As a result, it is inhibiting the growth of the image sensors market.

 

Image sensors are expected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. These sensors are used in consumer electronics, industrial robotics, healthcare, automotive, defense, archaeology, and criminal investigation applications. The miniaturization and integration of optical and electronic components of image sensors have increased their demand in the electronics industry.

 

The market for the time of flight technology is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Features such as simple and compact construction, efficient distance algorithm, ease of use, and high accuracy and frame rate make this technology a preferred solution in security and surveillance, measurement and inspection, user interface controls, gaming, augmented reality, and robotics applications.

 

The consumer electronics end-use industry is expected to hold the highest market share between 2021 and 2026. Biometric scanning and other cutting-edge 3D sensing technologies are redefining the world of consumer electronics. 3D sensing plays an important role across consumer electronics, such as facial recognition in smartphones, laptops, and tablets; high-performance in-depth sensing in photography; and AR/VR applications in gaming consoles.

The 3D sensor market in APAC is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Japan, India, and China are some of the major countries contributing to the growth of the 3D sensor market in the region. Players such as Samsung (South Korea), Huawei (China), Oppo (China), and Xiaomi (China) are already using vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) in their smartphones. VCSEL enables next-generation applications, including 3D facial recognition, augmented reality, automotive in-cabin sensing, and machine vision for autonomous vehicles and robotics.
