Image Sensor Market Forecast to Grow at 8.06% CAGR from 2014 to 2020

Research and Markets has announced the addition of the "Image Sensor Market by Technology, Spectrum, Array, Scanning Method, Application and by Geography - Analysis and Forecast (2013 - 2020)" report to their offering.

Digital imaging is one of the most rapidly evolving areas in electronics. The popularity of social networking, which enables users to instantly share their latest photos, has led to increasing demand for camera functions with high image/video quality in mobile phones and for tablets. Image sensors with enhanced sensitivity and dynamic ranges have led to better image quality for consumers. Therefore, the massive growth in demand for camera-enabled mobile phones and tablets across the globe will have a direct impact on the image sensors market.

There has been a growing need for image sensors in the application such as; consumer electronics, automotive & transportation, healthcare, industrial, security & surveillance, and aerospace and defense. For instance, in healthcare application, researchers from the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed the catheter-based device equipped with a CMOS image sensor that would provide real-time 3D images of heart, coronary arteries, and peripheral blood vessels, which would help to guide surgeons during heart procedures.

The image Sensor market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.06% from 2014 to 2020. The APAC market accounts for the highest market share of 38.30% during 2013, and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.15% from 2014 to 2020; whereas North America and Europe is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.29% and 5.30% from 2014 to 2020.
