Market Overview:
The global handset proximity sensor market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing demand for high-end and mid-range smartphones. Additionally, the growing adoption of gesture control features in smartphones is also contributing to the growth of this market. Based on type, the global handset proximity sensor market can be segmented into optical displacement sensor and ultrasonic displacement sensor. The optical displacement sensor segment is expected to account for a larger share of the global handset proximity sensor market than the ultrasonic displacement sensor segment during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. This can be attributed to its low manufacturing cost and small size as compared with ultrasonic displacement sensors. Based on application,the global handset proximity senormarket can be divided into high-end smartphones, mid-range smartphones, and low-end smartphones segments.
Product Definition:
Handset Proximity Sensor is a sensor present in the handset that helps to detect the distance between the handset and an object. It is used to prevent accidental touches and clicks on the screen.
Optical Displacement Sensor:
The optical displacement sensor is a device that works on the principle of detecting the presence, position and size of an object by measuring changes in light intensity. The technology has wide applications in automotive, consumer electronics and healthcare sectors. It finds its use in various proximity sensors such as keypads, touch screens and other devices where it is used to detect the presence or absence of objects for performing a specific task.
Ultrasonic Displacement Sensor:
Ultrasonic displacement sensor is a small electronic device that generates an ultrasonic pulse and measures the time taken for the sound wave to travel between two objects. The time delay between transmission and reception of the pulse is used to calculate distance.
The main applications of this sensor are in measuring the proximity of objects, cleaning, dispersion, and others.
Application Insights:
The mid-range smartphones segment held the largest market share in 2017. This is attributed to the growing preference for using this device as an alternative to a traditional wallet, which can be used for payment at stores and ATMs. The low-end smartphones proximity sensor market is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to its rising adoption in emerging economies such as India, China and Brazil. In addition, manufacturers are focusing on developing advanced products with enhanced features that offer more value for money compared to high-end smart devices.
The high-end smartphone application segment is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of XX% from 2018to 2030 due primarilyto increased demand from consumers who are looking forward towards adopting new technologies early enough before they become popular among masses. Furthermore, companies such as Apple Inc., Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., HTC Corporation and Xiaomi Technology Co.
Regional Analysis:
North America is expected to be the key regional market over the forecast period owing to the presence of a large number of manufacturers and OEMs in this region. The Asia Pacific is anticipated to be one of the fastest-growing regions during the forecast years, owing to an increase in disposable income and improved standard of living. Furthermore, rising smartphone penetration rates are also expected drive regional growth over the next eight years.
The proximity sensor plays a major role in determining whether or not a user should allow access to information stored on his device by disabling it through encryption or turning off its location services feature when necessary. This can help prevent data theft as well as ensure maximum battery life for smartphones by reducing unnecessary activity from occurring while keeping them powered on standby mode continuously throughout their usage cycle. This helps save energy costs for end-users along with being environment friendly since less electricity is consumed while idle thus enhancing overall product sales across this region significantly over time frame mentioned above (8 years).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for smartphones and other mobile devices
- Rising demand from automotive industry
- Growing popularity of gesture-based controls
- Proliferation of bezel-less and notch-less displays
- Emergence of virtual assistants
