While there are several market research reports published each year for sensors, some focus on specific markets like industrial, automotive or consumer and others address a single sensor category. Gas sensors are an interesting example. In “Global Gas Sensor Market Study Report 2019,” QY Research says the global Gas Sensor market is valued at million […]
How is wearable technology impacting industrial applications?
Market research experts expect a growing adoption of wearable sensors in industrial facilities. Gloves with fabric-based sensors are one of the growing applications. While they were initially designed to improve the gaming experience and sports activities, lightweight gloves with highly sensitive and accurate sensors can increase productivity and safety in an industrial environment. For example, […]
How does sensor packaging adapt for challenging applications?
At the device level, packaging for microelectromechanical (MEMS) sensors is often performed by an outsourced assembly and test (OSAT) company. The sensors could include accelerometers, gyroscopes, magnetometers and microphones as well as pressure, temperature, infrared, biomedical, chemical and gas sensors. The first level of chip packaging formats includes cavity land grid array (LGA), molded cavity […]
What market growth is expected for sensors? Part 1: Industrial
The market report, “Industrial Sensors Market by Sensor (Level Sensor, Image Sensor, Gas Sensor, Pressure Sensor, Position Sensor, Force Sensor, Flow Sensor, Temperature; and Humidity & Moisture Sensors),” specifically addresses this topic. According to the report, the projected value of the industrial sensors market is expected to be USD 16.0 billion in 2018 and is […]
What is the status of autonomous vehicles in industrial applications? Part 3
Many industrial applications for autonomous vehicles are in well-controlled environments that do not need the extensive mapping and understanding of varying traffic rules that impact autonomous road vehicles. Part 1 of this blog addressed the different levels of autonomous driving as defined by SAE for road vehicles and introduced the topic of autonomous farming. Part […]
What is the status of autonomous vehicles in industrial applications? Part 2
Part 1 of this blog addressed the different levels of autonomous driving as defined by SAE for road vehicles and introduced the topic of autonomous farming. This blog will provide additional information about autonomous farming applications as well as lift trucks. All of these areas are well-controlled environments that do not need the extensive mapping […]
What’s the status of autonomous vehicles in industrial applications? Part 1
First of all, what is an autonomous vehicle (AV)? The SAE provides classifications that many industries use for vehicular products. For automated driving, SAE has five classifications for on-road vehicles. In SAE J3016, Level 1 through Level 5 define increasing amount of automation and Level 0 designates no automation. Level 3 through Level 5 provide […]
What’s happening in air quality sensing?
Many people take clean air as a given. However, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimates (2014) that 4 million deaths globally are caused, at least in part, by air pollution. WHO also estimates (2016) that more than 90% of the world’s population lives in regions where air pollutant levels are higher than the WHO specified […]
How can a sensor company successfully integrate with an acquiring larger electronics company?
The acquisition of successful microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) sensor companies by larger and broader semiconductor manufacturers and even other larger sensor suppliers has occurred frequently within the past few years. While there are numerous post-acquisition steps that need to be taken to successfully integrate the two companies, a co-development project is technical way to demonstrate the […]
How can you reduce audio noise in an airport?
At Sensors Expo 2018, Giovanni De Majo from audio and pressure sensor product marketing at ams, demonstrates how his company’s AS3415 Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) chip can help reduce the background noise for headphone users in an airport, car or airplane. Selecting between the noise situation in an airplane car or airport De Majo chooses […]
