Microscopic devices with electrical and mechanical elements are called MEMS. MEMS devices range in size from 20 micrometers to a millimetre (0.02 to 1.0 mm), however components stacked in arrays (e.g., digital micromirror devices) can be over 1000 mm2. They typically have a core data processor (microprocessor) and many components that interact with the environment (microsensors). Global smartphone usage is driving the market growth. Smartphone manufacturers are adding MEMS sensors to improve interface and market share. And also the market is driven by the Internet of Things's development. The technology of microelectromechanical systems is utilized in numerous industries, including telecommunications, display control, navigation, and motion control. In addition, growing demand for peripheral technologies is anticipated to stimulate market expansion. Furthermore, the expansion of the internet of things (IoT) is anticipated to increase demand for MEMS devices.
From 2022 to 2030, the global Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) Market is anticipated to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.23%.
