Reportlinker.com has published a new market research report in its catalogue, “World Sensors Market in Consumer Electronics (2010 -2015) - Market Forecasts by Types (Touch, Motion, Image, Position, Pressure and Temperature sensors) & Applications (Entertainment, Home Appliances, Communication, IT and others)”.
The report identifies the market for touch, image, position, motion, temperature and pressure sensors for use in consumer electronics applications. It also identifies sub-segments of the sensors and assesses and predicts global revenues for each geographic zone, including North America, Europe, and the Asia Pacific.
The report also analyses issues, which govern the market growth for each product and offers profile and market strategies for each of the sensor developing companies. It also covers the development of new products available in the market.
The growth of the consumer market in sensors is fuelled by the enhanced demands for these devices in applications such as mobile and smart phones, MP3 players, computing systems, cameras and medical appliances. This surge in demand has in turn led to reduced costs. Sensors are also being constantly upgraded with enhanced features. Significant global players include Synaptics and OmniVision (U.S.), Bosch (Germany) and ST Microelectronics (Switzerland).
The report comments on sensor sizes over the next five years, and assesses sensor uses in entertainment, information technology, communication, and electronic appliances. It also describes the pros and cons of sensor applications.
