Technavio’s analysts categorize the global magnetic field sensors market into four major segments by the application. They are:
- Automotive
- Consumer electronics
- Industrial
- Others
The top three segments based on the application for the global magnetic field sensors market are discussed below:
Automotive
In the automotive industry, magnetic sensors are mainly used in safety systems, power trains, fuel systems, and driver support systems. The important applications of magnetic field sensors in automobiles include airbag safety systems and ESC, which come under driver safety systems.
According to Navin Rajendra, an industry expert for sensors research from Technavio, “The market growth is largely dependent on the light commercial vehicle market. Emerging markets, such as China and India, will be major consumers of LCVs during the forecast period.”
Consumer electronics
The consumer electronics segment has emerged as the second biggest consumer of magnetic sensors. E-compasses are gaining popularity as part of handheld devices and smartphones because of the need to orient maps. An e-compass enables mobile devices to use any application that requires a geographical reference such as location-based services and dead-reckoning navigation.
“There is intense competition in the global smartphones and tablets market, which has resulted in a decline in the prices of these devices. Therefore, the market is likely to witness an increase in the adoption of smartphones and tablets during the forecast period,” says Navin.
Industrial
The industrial segment of the global magnetic field sensors market was valued at USD 0.45 billion in 2016 and will reach USD 0.71 billion in 2021, growing at a CAGR of 9.55% during the forecast period. This is due to the growing adoption of automation in different industries to maintain their operational costs and achieve efficiency. Many industries are shifting more toward magnetic field sensors for navigation and monitoring processes rather than using traditional manual methods.
The top vendors highlighted by Technavio’s research analysts in this report are:
- Allegro MicroSystems
