Asia-Pacific Sensors Market Analysis
The Asia-Pacific sensors market was valued at USD 47.84 billion in the current year and is expected to reach USD 75.90 billion by the end of the forecast period, registering a CAGR of 8.41% during the forecast period. Sensors are part of a broader system that gathers information about the outside environment, puts it in a comprehensible form, and then conveys it.
- Most sensors are produced in the APAC region, and sensor technology is extensively utilized worldwide since so many cutting-edge technologies depend on the functionality of the sensors. Electric grids, smart homes, and smartphones are just a few of its applications. In contrast to mature regions like North America, the APAC region is still developing and expanding its use of sensors due to the trend of smart devices, a smart environment, industry 4.0, and the Internet of Things.
- Due to the presence of significant consumer electronics manufacturers in this region, analysts predict that Asia-Pacific will dominate the sensors market. The market is anticipated to be driven by increasing smartphone penetration, 5G penetration, and advancements across numerous end-user industries. China, South Korea, Japan, and India, among others, are major Asia-Pacific countries.
- Moreover, the promise of smart cities has captivated the APAC region's technology industry. As per the recent report by Equinix, "Smart Cities: Shifting Asia", UBS projects that APAC will account for 40% of the global addressable market growth for smart city projects, or USD 800 billion by 2025. This rapid urbanization is driving IT buildout and interconnection bandwidth growth to sustain APAC's expanding digital market. As a result, smart city applications like smart grids and buildings, air and water monitoring, smart transportation, smart waste collection, and disaster response are likely to expand the opportunity areas for the sensor market.
- Although the integration of sensors increases the level of industrial automation, it incurs an additional cost, which limits its use in cost-sensitive applications. In addition, the high development costs involved in the research and development activities to manufacture new products act as a critical challenge, mainly for the cash-deficient small and medium-sized sensor manufacturers.
- The COVID-19 epidemic severely impacted the worldwide supply chain and demand for many items, making it challenging to obtain some resources. Additionally, several businesses experienced a supply deficit of different items in February and March 2020 as a result of the production halt in nations like China. The price of raw materials increased as a result of the supply chain disruption, which had an effect on the total pricing of the sensors because there wasn't enough supply to fulfill demand.
Asia-Pacific Sensors Market Trends
Consumer Electronics Industry is Expected to Hold a Significant Share
- The region's numerous consumer electronics manufacturing facilities account for the huge market growth. Global corporations that produce consumer electronics, including smartphones, have factories in China. Additionally, several smartphone manufacturing facilities in nations like India, Vietnam, Taiwan, and the Philippines also export their finished goods worldwide.
- Smartphones are one of the key products that employ several types of sensors. From the camera, display, and touch-up to distance and proximity measures, sensors have a wide range of usage for smartphones. As such, the growing adoption of smartphones is significantly propelling market growth.
- The use of image sensors for smartphones has been on the rise, and companies such as Sony and Samsung are the front runners in these markets. In July 2022, Sony announced the development of a new 100 MP CMOS sensor that will be seen on upcoming mid-range smartphones.
- In 2022, Samsung announced it was also working on a 200 MP sensor, confirmed to work with the Motorola Frontier. Samsung is also actively involved in developing smartphone camera sensors with a higher pixel range. Such innovations and developments in the image sensor markets have contributed to the growth of the sensor market globally.
- According to the GSMA, in 2021, the smartphone adoption rate reached 74 percent and is expected to rise to 84% by 2025. Concurrently, the mobile subscriber penetration rate is expected to reach 62% in the same year. As a result, the region is anticipated to have a significant market share over the projection period.
China is expected to hold a significant share
- The sensor market in China is growing extremely quickly, and a rapidly rising community of producers is providing the country with a high volume of sensors for physical and chemical variables. One of the largest consumers of sensors, the automobile industry supports China's micro-electromechanical system industry.
- Additionally, according to CAAM, in April 2022, around 210,000 commercial vehicles and 996,000 passenger cars were produced in China. This will drive the market growth for sensors in the forecast period.
- China has emerged as the market leader for image sensors among the Asia-Pacific nations because of its expanding economy and growing proportion of the global electronics industry. In addition to having a sizable domestic market, China is exporting an increasing number of smartphones with cameras to other countries.
- Panasonic, Sharp, Canon, Himax Technologies, Hamamatsu Photonics K.K., Samsung, and Semiconductor Components Industries are some of the top companies competing in China's CMOS image sensor market.
Asia-Pacific Sensors Industry Overview
The Asia-Pacific sensor market is fragmented and highly competitive. Some key players are Texas Instruments Incorporated, Omron Corporation, Honeywell International Inc., Omega Engineering Inc., etc. These players are continuously innovating new products to stay ahead of the competition.
In November 2022, the KD6R1064CXF-NL model of the new KD-CXF series of contact image sensors (CISs) from Mitsubishi Electric Corporation boasted the widest field depth in the industry. CISs are often used in production to check product surfaces for blemishes, filth, incorrect label coloration or placement, etc.
In June 2022, Sony Group announced its plan to enhance its image sensor technology to expand its product portfolio and strengthen its market position. The company had been investing in its R&D capabilities to provide its customers with a solution for focusing on multiple targets when taking a picture via a smartphone. Such infinitives by the companies in the market are expected to increase the demand for sensors in a smartphone, thereby fueling the demand growth for sensors in the Asia-Pacific region.

** Subject To AvailablityAsia-Pacific Sensors Industry Segmentation
A sensor is an instrument that notices changes in the environment and reacts to an output from another system. A sensor transforms a physical phenomenon into a quantifiable analog voltage (or occasionally a digital signal), which is then displayed in a way that can be read by humans or transferred for reading or other processing. The microphone, which transforms sound energy into an electrical signal that may be amplified, transferred, recorded, and repeated, is one of the best-known sensors.
The Asia-Pacific sensors market is segmented by parameters measured (temperature, pressure, level, flow, proximity, environmental, chemical, inertial, magnetic, vibration), by mode of operation (optical, electrical resistance, biosensors, piezoresistive, image, capacitive, piezoelectric, lidar, radar), by end-user industry (automotive, consumer electronics (smartphones, tablets, laptops, and computers), wearable devices, smart appliances or devices), energy, industrial and other, medical and wellness, construction, agriculture, mining, aerospace, and defense), and by country. The market sizes and forecasts are provided in terms of value in USD billion for all the above segments.
