Market Overview

The industrial sensors market is expected to register a CAGR of over 7% during the forecast period (2021 - 2026). The growing awareness of the industrial IoT in various emerging economies has increased the focus of various end-user industries toward industrial sensors.

  • Owing to the declining sensor and platform prices, widening the scope of applications for sensors, and significant R&D investment, the market studied is expected to witness lucrative growth over the forecast period.
  • The growing emphasis on the use of predictive maintenance and remote monitoring in industries across the world, is estimated to provide growth opportunities to the industrial sensors market.
  • Additionally, a greater number of factories are transitioning into digitally smart environments and re-focusing on transforming existing partial automated facilities into a completely automated and integrated facility. This is to boost quality, speed, and productivity. This is further anticipated to increase the demand for sensors, thus, necessitating higher levels of connections in automated machinery, through the deployment of a greater number of sensors.

Scope of the Report

Industrial sensors are devices which can detect events or changes in the environment and provide the corresponding output. Sensor components are not considered as part of the study scope. These sensors can sense physical input, such as light, heat, motion, moisture, pressure, or any other entity, and respond by producing an output on a display or transmit the information in electronic form for further processing. These defines major applications in flood and water level monitoring systems, environmental monitoring, traffic monitoring and controlling, energy saving in artificial lighting, remote system monitoring and equipment fault diagnostics, and precision agriculture and animal tracking.

Key Market Trends

Proximity Sensors to Hold Significant Share

  • The proximity sensor can detect the presence of objects within its vicinity without any physical contact. To sense objects, this sensor radiates a beam of electromagnetic radiation, usually in the form of infrared light and detects the reflection, to determine the object's distance from the sensor.
  • The touch-free user interface is driving the adoption of proximity sensors in automotive applications. Applications where these sensors can be used in automotive include infotainment system, keyless entry system, 3D gesture, and interior lighting control. 
  • The increased adoption of industrial robots is another key factor driving the growth of the proximity sensor market. They are used in advanced robots for automobiles manufacturing, in construction industries to trace the distance in various applications, and in a military application for target detection as drones and aircrafts.
