Image Sensors Market worth $10.75 Billion - 2018
Early analog sensors were video camera tubes; most currently used are digital charge-coupled device (CCD) or complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) active pixel sensors.Image sensors have shown a steady growth off late across different industry verticals. The major applications of these sensors are in the consumer, automotive, surveillance, and medical segments. The largest application of image sensors is in the consumer segment due to the massive growth in demand for camera-enabled mobile phones and tablets across the globe. These applications mainly use CMOS image sensors due to their lower power consumption, smaller form factor, and faster speeds due to parallel readout and processing. In the past few years, there has been a growing need for security and surveillance cameras especially in public places and offices. The continuous automation of manual processes in factories has also contributed considerably to the increase in demand for image sensors. In the medical segment, there has been a shift towards minimal invasive procedures due to their lesser side-effects and also due to patient
