Product Definition:
IMUs are used in a variety of applications, including navigation, stabilization, and orientation determination.
In Ear:
In ear is a device that is used to measure the orientation, motion and position of the user's head. It's major applications are in smartphones and smart devices for its use in navigation systems, gaming devices, virtual reality headsets etc.
The growth factor for In Ear IMU market size spans services & software (86%), sensors (74%) and hardware (69%).
On Ear:
On ear is a type of headphones, where the entire weight of the headband is supported by a single point which is usually mounted on the neck. The design offers better stability and comfort to users as compared to other types of headphones. On ear devices are more popular among consumers who prefer long listening sessions as they provide better seal around the ear and do not slip off easily unlike other designs that tend to be lightweight owing to their lack of support from behind.
Application Insights:
The market is segmented by application into retail and online. The online application segment dominated the global MEMS-based inertial measurement unit (IMU) market in 2017, accounting for over 60% of the overall revenue share. This growth can be attributed to growing adoption of smartphones and tablets across various industries such as automotive, aerospace & defense, healthcare etc., which has resulted in increased demand for devices that are lightweight and consume low power. Moreover, increasing use of sensors in drones has led to high demand for IMUs that provide stability to the device during flight which further drives product demand.
The retail segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to rising adoption of wearable devices such as smartwatches among consumers who are looking forward towards new shopping experience with enhanced customer service quality from retailers.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in terms of revenue share in 2016. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period owing to high demand for advanced technologies and increasing military & defense expenditure by countries, such as U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Europe accounted for a significant share of revenue due to growing consumer electronics industry coupled with rising investments by key players in this sector. Asia Pacific is projected to be the fastest-growing regional market from 2017 to 2030 on account of rapid growth witnessed by emerging economies including China and India along with other South East Asian countries since 2010’s when these markets emerged as prominent players in MEMS-based inertial measurement unit industry (IMU) space (inertial measurement units are used for navigation applications).
The overall market size was estimated at USD X million in 2016.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for MEMS-based IMUs in automotive and aerospace applications
- Growing demand for miniaturized and low-power MEMS sensors
- Rising adoption of MEMS-based IMUs in consumer electronics devices
- Proliferation of 3D sensing technology across different applications
- Growing popularity of drones and other unmanned aerial vehicles
