Galvanic skin reaction is often referred to as skin conductance or electrodermal operation, which aids in measuring the skin's conductivity and the moisture content of the skin. It is because the sweat glands are powered by a sympathetic nervous system and also by moments of intense emotion, which creates changes in the electrical resistance of the skin. The galvanic skin response sensor (GSR) serves as an indicator of physiological and psychological arousal.
The galvanic skin response sensors market is driven by the rising integration of these sensors into wearable devices where they are used to monitor stress levels, emotional states, and physiological parameters. Advancements in sensor technology are propelling the expansion of GSR sensor applications in various fields such as medical diagnostics and psychological research. Moreover, with the growing emphasis on mental health issues, there is an increased demand for tools that can track and manage stress and emotional well-being, which is poised to directly impact the market dynamics.
Technological Developments Bolstering the Market Growth of Galvanic Skin Response Sensor
The galvanic skin response sensor is available in the form of a wearable sensor. The design and development of these health monitoring devices, which increase the comfort of the user, have received a great deal of attention. This is driving the demand for the galvanic skin response sensor. The market is primarily driven by the rising investments in the healthcare sector by government and non-government players. The market is also powered by technological advancements in miniature biosensor systems, microelectronics, smart textiles, and wireless communication and the availability of low-cost galvanic skin response sensors in low-cost, portable solutions for any location and continuous day-to-day mental, health, and behaviour tracking.
Launch of New Products to Meet Rising Galvanic Skin Response Sensor Market Demand
In August 2023 , a prominent manufacturer of sensor devices, SenTech Co., Ltd., launched an Emotion Recognition AI System that employs galvanic skin response (GSR) sensor technology to facilitate reliable and real-time analysis of human emotions. Sentech's AI system is expected to be a comprehensive solution for emotion recognition with promising applications in the field of healthcare, marketing, and entertainment. The introduction of such innovative galvanic skin response sensor-based devices by the key market players is anticipated to aid market expansion in the forecast period.
