Description

The global optical sensors market size is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.5% from 2022 to 2030. Optical sensors act as transducers, by converting physical quantities of light into electrical signals that instruments can interpret, measure, analyze, and manipulate. They are designed specifically to detect changes in light wavelength. The optical sensor, which is connected to a sensor, responds to changes in light within the sensor and displays the result. Basic optical sensors include photoconductive, photodiodes, photovoltaic, and phototransistors.

The increasing demand for advanced security features in smartphones has led to features such as on-screen fingerprint scans. This optical sensor detects and verifies fingerprints, driving the fiber optic sensor market.

Ambient sensors detect the amount of light in the room and adjust the screen's brightness accordingly. As a result, rising smartphone demand is expected to fuel demand for these sensors. Countries with low smartphone penetration, such as India, have experienced double-digit growth in recent years. The same pattern is likely to persist in the future. In addition, the current trend of 4G feature phones is expected to boost smartphone demand, boosting optical sensor demand.

Furthermore, promising industrial IoT applications and an increase in healthcare implementations will provide additional opportunities for the optical sensing market to grow in the coming years. However, the demand for low-cost sensors may pose a further challenge to the optical sensing market's growth in the future.
