Smart Sensors Market Analysis, By Type (Image Sensors, Smart Motion Sensors, Smart Position Sensors, Smart pressure Sensors, Smart Temperature Sensors, Touch sensors), By End-User (Automotive, Consumer Electronics, Industrial, Infrastructure, Medical).
The United Nations has predicted that by 2050, about 64% of the developing world and 86% of the developed world will be urbanized. More people than ever are living in cities, with estimations of an average 60% global population live with 5k of a city. Cities are constantly growing, therefore the urban density is continuously increasing. As urbanizations increases, it gives rise to many questions about sustainability, liveability, and strains on resources and space. To cope up with these challenges and manage urbanization, a smarter approach is required such as the smart city. Smart cities operations are incomplete without deploying smart sensors such as image sensors, position sensors, and temperature sensors among others. Smart sensors give solutions to all problems such as traffic congestion which can be solved by smart transport solutions, and smart buildings which reduce the infrastructure problem and many more.
In this changing environment, due to the increasing population, excessive use of polluting machines and a large number of wastes the environmental concerns are ever increasing. The level of pollution is increasing exponentially. The increase in the number of diesel vehicles causing higher levels of particulate emissions, the population growth leading to an increase in carbon emissions, high amount of waste generation and others are the major environmental concerns. Due to the increasing population in urban areas cities are expected to face a severe resource scarcity in the near future. Therefore, to avoid the resource scarcity and to solve environmental problems there is a necessity for a smart approach. The smart sensors promise to solve all the environmental problems and operate resource efficiency by its numerous solutions such as smart energy, smart building, smart transport, and others. Thus, the increasing environmental concerns are driving the smart sensors implementation.
Smart sensors are gaining huge market growth due to the increasing trend of smart cities, and growing automation market. It gives more accurate and automated collected environment data with fewer errors in the recorded information. However, the demand for high technical advancement in the day to day operations has developed a need in the market to bring more customized sensors. These customized sensors have, however, increases the development cost of sensors. Though the Introduction of CMOS based smart sensors has reduced the cost of smart sensors to some extent, more innovative ideas are required to make these sensors reliable.
