Micro-electro-mechanical System (MEMS) sensors are used in automobiles which comprises of both electronic and mechanical elements used for joining signal processing abilities on a single small chip. It consists of various components such as sensors, actuators, miniaturized structures, and microelectronics. Moreover, MEMS sensors are also known as micromachines since it utilizes technology which is being used for small devices. The incorporation of MEMS sensors could be used in many applications such as tire pressure monitoring systems, oil pressure sensing, pedestrian protection, exhaust gas recirculation, rollover detection, navigation system and others. Furthermore, the automotive MEMS sensor market provides various advantages of high efficiency, small size, and low cost. The influence of automotive MEMS sensors is expected to be on electronic component companies and automobile parts makers. In addition, the government of various nations has an intense interest in forming standards and regulations for automotive MEMS sensors which will strengthen the market.
COVID-19 Impact Analysis
- Due to COVID-19, the government in major countries have announced lockdown which caused numerous business shutdown. Moreover, due to lockdown, automobile production has also been halted. Thus, affecting the demand for automotive MEMS sensors. Furthermore, due to social distancing norms and other restrictions, the unavailability of labor required for hardware production further delayed the manufacturing process. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact on the electric vehicles market, the sales of the vehicles have increased than the previous year. The automotive MEMS sensor market is an evolving sector that had a negative impact due to the pandemic. Therefore, post-pandemic the rise in the sale of electric vehicles is expected to drive the growth of the automotive MEMS sensor market.
