EMBEDDED TEMPERATURE SENSOR MARKET ANALYSIS

The temperature sensor is an electronic device that measures the temperature of a person, environment, or object. The temperature sensor is used to state the degree or intensity of heat present in a substance. These sensors will convert input data to electronic data to record, monitor, and then display in a human-readable format. There are mainly two types of sensors i.e. contact and non-contact temperature sensors. Non-contact temperature sensors are basically infrared (IR) sensors. The temperature sensor provides benefits such as durability, accuracy, and low power consumption. These sensors are used in various industries to detect overheating and give alerts to end users. The temperature sensor finds its application in various sectors such as consumer electronics, semiconductors, chemicals, manufacturing, and others.

The global embedded temperature sensor market is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period (2022–2030). The growth of the embedded temperature sensor market is majorly attributed to the increasing demand for temperature sensors in consumer electronics such as laptops, tablets, smart wearables, and others. The demand for smartwatches has increased from health-conscious people. Smartwatches provide important information related to pulse or heart rate and give suggestions to remain healthy. Moreover, smart shirts are also used by players to monitor the movement of the body. Smart shirts are helpful for a sportsperson to keep a record of their daily goal and to track heart rate, pulse rate, and heat level. For instance, according to Coherent Market Insights’ analysis, the number of people using smart wearables across the globe increased from 523.3 million in 2017 to 832.3 million in 2020.

Moreover, research and wearable manufacturing companies are manufacturing advanced sensors that can be packed into wearable’s to measure temperature. Due to advancements in technology, more innovative products are being introduced in the market such as smartwatches, armbands, and smart T-shirts. Armbands are designed to track the human body movement, detect accurate health, and pulse rate. Furthermore, embedded temperature sensors are used in smartphones to monitor the fertility status of women. The status of fertility is displayed on the smartphone screen. For instance, women in the U.S. are using such devices to main a healthy lifestyle.

Increasing health awareness is one of the major factors driving the demand for temperature sensors among consumers to keep a track of their health. People who are conscious about their health spend a lot on monitoring devices such as smart watches and smartphones. By using smartwatches, people can consult a doctor and take precautions in advance. For instance, in October 2019, SAMSUNG launched SAMSUNG GALAXY WATCH ACTIVE 2 which is used to monitor blood pressure and track health-related problems. This smartwatch is helpful in measuring a person’s blood pressure and making them aware of their health issues. Hence, these factors are expected to drive market growth during the forecast period.

The global embedded temperature sensor market was valued at US$ 7,182.3 Mn in 2021.

Recent Developments:

In March 2022, Sensirion, a developing and manufacturing sensor Solutions Company released the STS4X, a fourth-generation temperature sensor series. This digital sensor provides measurements that are extremely accurate and has industry-leading lead times. Additionally, it is presently represented by the STS40 and is offered in various accuracy classes. It has features including improved single processing, three unique I2C addresses, and up to 1MHz communication speeds.

Restraint:

High operational cost is going to restrain the growth of the embedded temperature sensor market

Global Embedded Temperature Sensor Market - Impact of Coronavirus (Covid-19) Pandemic:

The COVID-19 pandemic has driven the growth of the embedded temperature sensor market. Moreover, due to COVID-19, all Chinese manufacturers had shut down their operations to hold the spread of the coronavirus. Countries such as India find it difficult to source important raw materials and electronic components from Chinese factories. Demand for temperature sensors kept on increasing due to the. Temperature sensors are used at airports, land borders, and popular public spaces to check the temperature of people. Hence, the global embedded temperature sensor market witnessed high growth during the pandemic.

North America held a dominant position in the global embedded temperature sensor market in 2021

North America held a dominant position in the global embedded temperature sensor market in 2021 and is projected to retain its dominance throughout the forecast period, owing to increasing demand for temperature sensors from the oil & gas, automotive, and consumer electronics sectors. For instance, FOSA (Fiber-Optic Sensing Association), the U.S first trade association, launched optical fiber sensing. Fiber-optic sensing is an advanced technology that uses light in fiber-optic cables to measure acoustics, temperature, and strain. Through this technology, individuals can detect pipeline leakage, seismic activity, and unsafe temperatures in the oil and gas industry. Additionally, increased demand for smart wearables in the U.S has increased the demand for temperature sensors. This is due to urbanization and the penetration of smart technologies in the market. Moreover, according to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), disposable personal income in the U.S. increased to US$ 16,706.40 billion in December 2021 from US$ 16,675.80 billion.

Asia Pacific region is expected to exhibit the highest growth during the forecast period. Thiis owing to the rising adoption of temperature sensors in industries such as oil and gas, and chemicals for the prevention of moisture, overheating, and corrosion. Moreover, rising investment in the oil and gas industry will provide lucrative opportunities for the embedded temperature sensor market in the coming years. For instance, according to India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), the investment in oil and gas exploration and production activities in India has expected to reach US$ 25 million by 2022. In addition, the growing government policies and initiatives towards the fulfillment of energy demands and initiation of new projects will contribute positively to the embedded temperature sensor market revenue during the forecast period. Due to the above-mentioned factors, the embedded temperature sensor market is expected to witness significant growth during the forecast period.

Increasing demand for embedded temperature sensor in food & beverages industry is expected to drive the market growth during the forecast period

Among end-use industry, the food & beverage segment is expected to hold a dominant position in the global embedded temperature sensor market during the forecast period. This is owing to the increasing demand for embedded temperature sensors for quality assurance during production, storage, and transit. For instance, due to stringent government regulations for Food and Drug Administration (FDA), it is mandated to use temperature sensors to monitor the temperature in complicated processes such as bottling, emulsification, piping, pasteurization, and others.
