Market Trends of Gyroscopes Industry
Automotive to be the Fastest Growing End-user Vertical
- Gyroscopes have several applications in the automotive industry. Gyroscopes, particularly MEMS, are used in vehicle roll-over prevention and airbag deployment systems. Gyroscopes are used in vehicle image stabilization systems, such as in-camera stabilization systems for dashcams or other onboard cameras. They are also utilized in-vehicle navigation systems to improve performance and accuracy. They can be used with other sensors to provide precise positioning and orientation.
- Gyroscopes can also be used in vehicle control systems to assist with stability and control. They can provide information about the vehicle's angular motion, which can be used to optimize vehicle dynamics and improve safety. They are utilized as a part of inertial guidance systems in cars. These systems use gyroscopes to measure and maintain a vehicle's orientation and angular velocity, providing accurate navigation and guidance information. Further, they form a crucial part of the electronic stability program (ESP) systems of vehicles that aid in the detection and measurement of the rate of rotation of the car. This information assists in maintaining vehicle stability and control during maneuvers.
- The increased production of passenger vehicles drives the market studied. For instance, according to OICA, worldwide motor vehicle production in 2022 amounted to more than 85 million units. The passenger cars segment generated approximately 73 percent of the motor vehicle production, almost 61.59 million units. In 2021, the worldwide motor vehicle production totaled about 57.05 million.
- Gyroscopes are essential in the automotive advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS). They are used in stability control systems to detect and correct deviations from the vehicle's intended path, improving safety and stability during driving. They enhance autonomous driving capabilities, strength, and safety. GPS-aided gyro systems have been developed to measure vehicle dynamics and driver assistance parameters in the automotive sector. These systems provide high-precision measurements to aid in ADAS testing and development. According to the National Safety Council, by 2026, approximately 71% of registered vehicles will be equipped with rear cameras, while 60% will have rear parking sensors. Such increasing adoption of ADAS would aid the growth of the market studied.
- Moreover, the increasing adoption of self-driving or autonomous vehicles is a primary growth factor for the ADAS market. For instance, according to Intel, global car sales are expected to reach over 101.4 million units in 2030, and autonomous vehicles will account for about 12% of car registrations by 2030.
