Research and Markets: Global Pressure Sensor Market 2012 - 2017: Forecast, Trend & Analysis - Segmentation by Technology, Applications & Geography
DUBLIN --(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/mfrbr2/global_pressure)
has announced the addition of the "Global
Pressure Sensor Market 2012 - 2017: Forecast, Trend & Analysis -
Segmentation by Technology [Piezoresistive, Capacitive, Electromagnetic
(Reluctance), Resonant Solid State, Optical], Applications [Process &
Non process] & Geography" report to their offering.
Pressure sensors are expected to show good growth as they are widely
used across different application segments. Currently, the market is
dominated by piezoresistive and capacitive sensors but we predict strong
growth of optical sensing technology as well in future due to their
applications in hazardous environments. Piezoresistive sensors are
heavily used in automotive and medical applications while capacitive
sensing is highly recommended in the process and petrochemical and oil
and gas industries.
Due to improved sensitivity, pressure sensors are used for a variety of
applications such as petrochemicals, automotive segments, consumer
electronics, utilities, and industrial segment. There has been a growth
in the automotive industry that uses pressure sensors to a greater
extent from applications such as TPMS (Tyre Pressure Monitoring System),
engine management to monitoring of air volume, exhaust gas pressure of
EGR system. Acceptance of pressure sensors in many application segments
will add on to their consumption in the future. Safety-related mandates
in regions like North America and Europe are acting as a driver to the
growth of these sensors.
Technological advancement is opening new doors to the growth of pressure
sensors for automotive and medical applications. Penetrtion of MEMS
technology in pressure sensing is expected to play a lead role in the
overall market in the future. Sensors based on this technology are
extensively used in medical and automotive applications due to their
smaller form factor.
The market size of pressure sensors in the year 2011 was $5.11 billion
and is expected to reach $7.34 billion units by 2017, at an estimated
CAGR of 6.3%. In terms of volume the unit shipment for pressure sensors
was 8.7 billion units in the year 2011 and is expected to reach 16.37
billion units by 2017, at an estimated CAGR of 11.3% from 2012 to 2017.
Pressure sensor market is triggered due to a lot of factors. Vehicle
production in emerging markets, government regulations, gradual
reduction in size, and the fast growth of Asian economies are acting as
drivers to the pressure sensor market. Pricing and maturity of critical
end-user segments act as restraints to this market while advancements in
ICT technology and nanotechnology applications are the future
opportunities for pressure sensor market.
