According to the recent
business intelligent report by
IndustryARC, the
global image sensors market size was in the range of $15 billion to $17 billion as of 2018. The market is projected to grow with an outstanding CAGR of around 8% to 9% during the forecast period of 2019 to 2025. Furthermore, APAC is positioned as the leading region with market share of around 35% as of 2018.
The
image sensor, also known as an imager, is a solid-state device that is an integral component of the machine vision camera. The main purpose of image sensors is to convert the incoming light (photons) into an electrical signal, which gets recorded as the video. It can be analyzed, viewed or stored in the storage device. Image sensors are used in electronic imaging devices such as camera modules, digital cameras, medical imaging equipment, and night vision equipment including thermal imaging devices. The types of sensors used in the market are semiconductor charged-coupled devices and Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor is further segmented as passive and active pixels sensors.
Global Image Sensors Market: Growth Drivers
- Medical Applications Increasing the Demand for Image Sensors -
Image sensors are used as an artificial retina or as a support to the damaged human visualization systems. Additionally, it is used for the treatment of the gastrointestinal tract, and the process is known as wireless capsule endoscopy. Capsule consists of the camera, and it is swallowed by the patient. Subsequently, the images are transmitted by digital radiofrequency which is transferred to the computer for later analyses and diagnosis. The growing usage of this technique is creating new revenue avenues for the image sensors market vendors.
