An automotive gyroscope is a device used to measure angular velocity or angular acceleration in cars and other vehicles. It is also known as a rate gyroscope or gyro for short. Gyroscopes are used to measure the roll, pitch, and yaw of a vehicle and can be used to detect and correct skidding and provide feedback to active suspension systems. In addition, they are used in navigation systems, such as GPS, and in cruise control systems. The global automotive gyroscope market covers different technologies such as MEMS gyroscopes, ring laser gyroscopes (RLG), fiber optic gyroscopes (FOG), and hemispherical resonating gyroscopes (HRG).
The automotive gyroscope market is expected to grow significantly over the forecast period owing to its increasing adoption in numerous automotive applications such as vehicle dynamic control, navigation, and passenger comfort. The automotive gyroscope provides accurate and reliable data regarding the vehicle's direction, orientation, and rotation rate, which is expected to further fuel the market growth. Increase in technological advancements such as improved inertial sensors and MEMS technology is further anticipated to drive market growth. Moreover, the growth of the automotive sector across the globe is expected to further propel the market for automotive gyroscopes. As per the OICA (The International Organization of Motor Vehicle Manufacturers(OICA), in 2021, the sale of motor vehicles increased to 82.7 million, which is an increase of 5% compared to previous year. However, the high cost of automotive gyroscopes is a major factor restraining the market growth. In addition, the complexity associated with the integration of automotive gyroscopes with other systems and components may hinder market growth.
Despite these challenges, increase in demand for automotive gyroscopes from the automotive industry, especially rise in demand for luxury vehicles, is anticipated to provide ample growth opportunities to the market players. Furthermore, advancements in automotive gyroscopes, such as the introduction of vibrating gyroscopes, which are more accurate and stable than mechanical gyroscopes, are expected to propel the market growth.
Some of the major trends in the global automotive gyroscope market include increase in demand for automated driving solutions, surge in adoption of MEMS gyroscopes, and rise in use of inertial measurement units (IMU) . IMUs are composed of several inertial sensors such as accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetometers. Gyroscopes are used in IMUs to measure the angular velocity and position of the vehicle. Moreover, the developing autonomous vehicle technology is positively impacting the market as automotive manufacturers are investing in the development of autonomous vehicle technology, where advanced gyroscopes are required for proper navigation and control. For instance, in April 2020, a paper was presented by researchers from the University of Michigan at the 7th IEEE International Symposium on Inertial Sensors & Systems on a new gyroscope technology called a precision shell integrating (PSI) gyroscope. It can track and navigate autonomous vehicles and drones without using GPS.
