Rising Demand in Various End Use Sectors to Augment the Optical Sensor Industry Growth
On the basis of end use, the aerospace and defence industry is witnessing a significant deployment of optical sensors due to their capability to stand-in harsh environment. Further, remote sensing is becoming a major factor for the growing adoption of optical sensors in chemical and furnace factories for the measurement of temperature. Meanwhile, in the oil and gas industry, optical pressure measurement sensors are widely adopted, which is further contributing to the expansion of the optical sensor industry.
In addition to this, feasible approach of the communication industry towards the usage of glass fibre cable is offering opportunities for the market growth. The increasing investments in smart city, smart buildings, and smart home projects are estimated to extend the implementation of ambient light and intelligent lighting technologies, thereby offering a chance for the expansion of the optical sensor industry. The industries like healthcare, consumer electronics, and automotive are expected to witness a massive adoption of optical sensors like temperature, pressure, image, and motion sensors.
North America to Provide Enhanced Growth Opportunities to the Optical Sensor Industry
Region-wise, North America has always been one of the most important markets for consumer electronics, and, therefore, the demand for optical sensors in the region is also high. In the United States, smartphone household penetration is at 74%, suggesting a high potential for household penetration in the region. The new product developments in the industry are mainly pushing the US market. For ambient light and other uses, optical sensors are widely used in smartphones, mobile wearables, and smartwatches. The Internet of Things (IoT), wearable devices, and health and fitness technology have all revolutionised the US market.
Europe is welcoming robotics in the factory automation phase and the government's funding for the introduction of Advanced Driver Assistant Systems (ADAS) in vehicles is expected to fuel demand for optical sensors in the region. Meanwhile, in the Middle East and Africa, the increased internet penetration and the increasing number of mobile users are projected to fuel business growth in the coming years.
Optical Sensor: Market Segmentation
The light is transformed into electric signals by an optical sensor. It transforms light into a shape that can be perceived by an instrument and calculates the physical quantity of light. The optical sensor is attached to an electrical stimulus that responds to changes in the signal. The optical sensor can sense differences in light wavelength. Optical sensors use either a single point or a distribution point mode of operation. To trigger the sensor in the single point process, a single-phase shift is needed. The sensor is reactive along with a set of sensors in the distribution point system.

Increasing Demand for Wearable Devices to Bolster the Growth of the Optical Sensor Industry
The rising adoption of wearable healthcare devices in developed economies is probably going to spice up the optical sensor industry revenue. Wearable healthcare devices, like fit bits, pulse oximeters, smartwatches, and others are integrated with optical sensors, providing real-time patient health monitoring solutions. These sensors offer several features like high accuracy, compact size, and no response to an electromagnetic wave, making them ideal for applications in medical-grade wearable devices. As per estimates, about 21% of U.S. adults regularly wear a smartwatch or wearable fitness trackers; therefore, to deal with the growing demand for wearable healthcare devices, market players are introducing technically advanced products with optical sensor technology.
The extension of the IoT system is a key factor in the optical sensor industry's growing demand. The rising demand for optical sensors is being driven indirectly by the increasing adoption of consumer electronics devices, especially smartphones and smart tablets. The adoption of optical sensors was made possible by the introduction of smartphones with features such as 3D imaging, restore recognition, eye tracking, and so on. Optical sensors' advantages, such as their lightweight, compact size, passive design, and dynamic sensing range, are also responsible for balancing the market's growth rate.
