Global inertial measurement unit (IMU) market - Segmentation assessment

Segment overview

Technavio has segmented the market based on component (gyroscopes, accelerometers, inertial combo, and magnetometers) and end-user (consumer electronics, automobiles, industrial, and others).

• The gyroscopes segment will account for a significant share of the market's growth during the forecast period. The sales of mobile computing devices such as smartphones, tablets, and smart wearables are increasing. Mobile computing devices are equipped with sensors such as gyroscopes and accelerometers to provide features such as GPS, screen rotation, and device orientation. The preference for such features will increase the demand for gyroscopes. 

Geography Overview

By geography, the global inertial measurement unit (IMU) market is segmented into North America, APAC, Europe, South America, and Middle East and Africa. The report provides actionable insights and estimates the contribution of all regions to the growth of the global inertial measurement unit (IMU) market.

• North America is estimated to account for 38% of the growth of the global market during the forecast period. North America is an early adopter of advanced technologies such as wearables, and the purchasing power of people is high in the region. Therefore, the sales of smart wearables are increasing. Though North America is a mature market, the demand for new types of wearables will originate from the region. Hence, the demand for IMUs will increase steadily during the forecast period.
