Global Pressure Sensor Market, By Geography

The key pressure sensor industry leaders profiled in the report include ABB Ltd., Analog Devices, Eaton, Honeywell, Infineon Technologies, NXP Semiconductors N.V., Renesas Electronics, Siemens, STMicroelectronics, and Texas Instruments. These key players have adopted strategies, such as product portfolio expansion, mergers & acquisitions, agreements, geographical expansion, and collaborations, to enhance their market penetration.

Top Impacting Factors

The significant factors impacting the growth of the global pressure sensor market include increase in use of pressure sensors in the automotive industry, emerging demand for pressure sensors in consumer electronics, and favorable government regulations regarding the use of pressure sensors. However, high initial cost of the sensors acts as a major barrier for its adoption, thereby hampering the growth of the market. On the contrary, growing trends toward Internet of Things (IoT) and surge in demand for sensors in the development of smart cities are the factors anticipated to provide lucrative opportunities for the growth of the pressure sensor market during the forecast period.

Increase in use of pressure sensors in automotive industry

The demand for pressure sensors has increased subsequently over the years and is estimated to increase further during the forecast period. This benefits automotive manufactures to boost their market growth and increase their market share. Pressure sensors are the key components that reduce emissions and fuel consumption, to decrease air pollution. In addition, pressure sensors are being deployed for various safety concerns of passengers in automotive for applications, such as Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS), Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), and Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensors (MAPS) among others. They also help deploy air bags, throttle position, weight, and sensing of passengers. 

High cost of the device

The addition of sensors help increase automation in electronic devices; however, it incurs an extra cost and thereafter it is avoided in cost-effective applications. The incorporation of sensors facilitates extra features and makes the devices more automated, although, it incurs some additional cost and thereafter it is avoided in cost-effective applications. In devices, which are continuously used for a long time, such as smart phones, laptops, and cameras, these sensors create heating issues and reduce their overall life as these devices have components, which are temperature sensitive. The devices which use battery as their power source, sensors reduce their battery life as they rely on device battery for their operation.

In addition, high development costs involved in R&D activities to develop new products pose a difficult challenge, especially for cash deficient small & medium sized pressure sensor manufacturers. High costs generated in the overall production process of the sensor have made way for the usage of these sensors only in high-end cars. There is an increase in the demand for its supply due to limited manufacturers of quality sensors. In addition, the integration of these sensors into viable systems especially in the automotive industry is an expensive process. The lack of product differentiation, high power consumption, and accuracy are some of the other restraints.

Surge in trends toward Internet of Things (IoT)

In the current IT-dominant world, people are moving toward automation-based solutions and services. This leads to increased focus on IoT-based devices due to their innovative and advanced applications. IoT is a technology for providing internet or internetworking for almost all applications such as smartphones, microwaves, refrigerators, automotive, healthcare, and buildings. It uses electronic software, sensors, and actuators for connecting all these things to a common network. It incorporates several sensors such as touch sensor, proximity sensor, pressure sensor and temperature sensor. 

IoT-based devices help in machine-to-machine (M2M) communication and person-to-computer communication. In addition, these devices assist people in capturing and transmitting electronic data. For instance, the smart sensors used in the infrastructure industry are implemented on the bridges and transmit data related to cracks, stress, and warpages. Moreover, these sensors also notify about the climate conditions and transfer information through the Internet to the approaching vehicle to reduce its speed. In the electronics sector, these smart sensors are used in power grids to measure the usage of electricity. Developments in the IoT market and surge in government initiatives are anticipated to foster the growth in the pressure sensor market in the next five to six years.
