New Study: Global Consumer Motion Sensor Market 2015-2019

Fast Market Research announces the availability of Technavio's new report "Global Consumer Motion Sensor Market 2015-2019" on their comprehensive research portal.

Motion sensors are devices that detect any 3-dimensional motion. Micro-electro-mechanical-systems (MEMS), also called micromachines or micro systems technology, are miniaturized electro-mechanical systems. MEMS is a combination of microsensors, microactuators, microelectronics, and microstructures. The role of a microsensor is to convert mechanical signals into electrical signals. Component vary in size from 1 to 100 micrometers and the whole device varies from 20 micrometers to 1 millimeter. There are 4 major types of MEMS motion sensors: accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers, and combo sensors. Accelerometers detect linear motion and tilt angle, gyroscopes detect angular motion, magnetometers detect magnetic fields, and combo sensors are a combination of all the sensors.

Technavio's analysts forecast the global consumer motion sensor market to grow at a CAGR of 14.9% over the period 2014-2019.

Commenting on the report, an analyst from Technavio’s team said: "One major trend emerging in this market is the growing popularity of combo motion sensors. These sensors integrate accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetometers into one sensor that is more efficient compared to conventional sensors."

According to the report, the augmented demand for wearable electronics is a critical driver that promotes growth in this market. Wearable devices can measure heart rates and other health parameters. These devices are useful for people who are health conscious and suffer from health complications.

Further, the report states that the dependence on end products is one of the major challenges faced by this market. Since the design of sensors is based on end-product specification, manufacturers have to constantly tailor their products to meet the OEM’s design specification.

The key players in the Global Consumer Motion Sensor Market are Asahi Kasei Microdevices Corp. (AKM), Bosch Sensortec GmbH, InvenSense Inc., and STMicroelectronics NV while other prominent vendors include Epson Toycom, Freescale Semiconductor, Kionix, and MEMSIC.

The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
