Segments - Magnetic Proximity Sensor Market by Application (Aerospace and Defense, Automotive, Consumer Electronics, and Building Automation) and Regions (Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa) - Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2021 – 2028
Magnetic proximity sensor market size was USD 2 billion in 2018 and is estimated to register a substantial CAGR during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to increased integration of magnetic sensors in several industry verticals, couples with significant technological advancements in sensing techniques.
Magnetic sensors become the building blocks of electronic control systems in commercial as well as passenger vehicles. These systems establish increased safety and enhance driver convenience, leading to increasing demand in the market. Such advanced sensing elements ensure high efficiency and reliability in terms of performance and economics.
High penetration of feature-rich, sophisticated smartphones and tablets has call for the need for advanced sensing components. Magnetic sensors have further significantly used in the field of Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) and medical R&D.
The average selling prices (ASP) of magnetic sensors are declining intensively, due to intense competition in the market. As a result, manufacturers are forced to shrink their margins in order to secure long-term deals with companies across several end-markets. While such a reduction in ASPs is projected to continue, growing application ranges of magnetic sensors are estimated to help the market over upcoming years.
The Covid-19 pandemic had an unpleasant impact on magnetic proximity sensor market due to halt in production in several industries such as automotive, consumer electronics, aerospace etc and fluctuating supply in the market; however, the government’s steps and strategies have helped to neutralised the situation. This pandemic has encouraged the key players to implement advance technologies to overcome these challenges and expand the market growth.
