Development Status Of Flexible Sensors
Leave a message
The demand for flexible tactile sensors continues to increase in multiple fields, and the market size has grown significantly. With the rapid development of consumer electronics, healthcare, automobiles, industrial automation and other fields, the application demand for flexible tactile sensors continues to increase, thus promoting the expansion of the market size. The global flexible tactile sensor market size will be approximately US$1.534 billion in 2022, and is expected to reach US$5.322 billion by 2029, with a compound annual growth rate of 17.9%.
In terms of technology, there are many types of flexible tactile sensors, including piezoresistive, piezoelectric, capacitive, photoelectric, magnetic, fiber optic and ultrasonic. These different types of sensors play an important role in their respective application scenarios and meet the needs of different fields.
In terms of market competition, the global flexible tactile sensor market is mainly occupied by foreign companies. The top five global manufacturers include Novasentis, Tekscan, Japan Display Inc. (JDI), Baumer and Fraba, which together hold approximately 57.1% of the market share. Although domestic companies such as Hanwei Technology, Titanium Technology and Hongxin Electronics have achieved certain results in technology and market applications, overall they are still dominated by foreign companies.
In terms of future development trends, flexible tactile sensors have broad application prospects in robotics and other fields. As the demand for higher precision and wider sensing capabilities increases, the application of flexible tactile sensors in robot hands/fingers, chest and other parts will further expand. It is expected that by 2029, the global robot tactile sensor market will reach US$430 million, with a compound annual growth rate of 10.2%.
