NA Pressure Sensors Market Trends

Market Trends of NA Pressure Sensors Industry

Automotive Industry to Show Significant Growth

• The automotive sector accounted for the largest market share by application type, owing to several applications of pressure sensors in automobiles and in the automotive industry. The appropriate automotive pressure sensor can deliver cost-effective reliability and long operational life, whether the application is in the engine, tire, or passenger compartment.
• The demand for the type of sensor depends on the location of installation. If TMPS is located inside of the rims, they are often equipped with wireless power systems enabled by magnetic induction, as these sensors are hard to reach for battery replacement activities once installed.
• Further, evaporative emissions are being subjected to more stringent regulations, especially in North America and Europe. With up to 20% of global hydrocarbon emissions occurring from vehicles, there is a considerable challenge for automotive manufacturers to develop more efficient EVAP systems, triggering research and development activities for better vapor pressure sensors.
• However, in recent times, innovations in windshield wiping technology are increasingly opening up new opportunities to the pressure sensors market. Mercedes has adopted a new windshield wiping technology called Magic Vision Control in its S and SL class vehicles, which washer into wiper.

United States to Hold the Highest Market Share

• North America is dominating the global pressure sensor market and is estimated to grow significantly over the forecast period.
• The region also has the highest adoption of automation and smart devices in almost every industry. Owing to a high rate of automation, the region is a dominating market for smart homes and smart offices. In comparison to the world, the region has also witnessed the highest adoption of IT in the healthcare industry.
• According to the American Automotive Policy Council, automakers and their suppliers are America’s largest manufacturing sector, responsible for 3% of America’s GDP. They are also America’s largest exporters and have exported more than USD 690 billion in vehicles and parts over the last five years, approximately USD 76 billion more than the next largest exporter, i.e., aerospace.
• The researchers at Harvard University have developed a platform for creating soft robots with embedded advanced pressure sensors that can sense movement, pressure, touch, and even temperature.
• Governmental regulations in the region to ensure passenger safety in the automobile sector are expected to be a significant growth factor for the pressure sensor market. For instance, the US government passed the TREAD Act to mandate the installation of the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) in all types of automobiles so that drivers can be cautious about the under-inflation of automobiles within 20 minutes of its detection.
