The smart sensor is a device which consists of transduction element, signal conditioning electronics and controller or processor. It has the ability to take decisions and it is a complete system which is also known as a system on chip. The main aim of smart sensors is to integrate electronics and sensors. Smart sensor enables the sensor to stand alone with the processing power normally associated with much larger data acquisition systems.

The report provides the contribution of the smart sensor market with inclusive forecasts for revenue across technology, sensor types, components, applications, and geography related to this market. The smart sensor technologies are classified into Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS), optical spectroscopy and complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS). The sensor type section is further segmented into flow sensors, dissolved oxygen sensors, turbidity sensors, oxidation reduction potential sensors, pH sensors, temperature sensors, pressure sensors, touch sensors and others. The component section is further segmented into analog-to-digital converter (ADC), digital-to-analog converter (DAC), microcontroller, amplifiers, transceivers and others. Applications of smart sensor include aerospace & defense, automotive, biomedical, industrial automation, building automation, consumer electronics and others. This report covers geographical regions which include the Americas, Europe, Asia Pacific and the rest of the world.

The smart sensor market is expected to reach $10.46 billion by the end of 2020 at a CAGR of 36.25%.Latest technological breakthroughs have assisted the advance of new sensors that can make the overall processes more efficient and can significantly improve accuracy in various applications. Among all the sensors, pressure sensor temperature sensor, flow sensor and touch sensor are widely being used across various applications. The flow sensors market is driven majorly by the growing medical sectors, industries, and automotive industries. Temperature sensors are widely used in measurement, control systems and instrumentation. Pressure sensors are used to measure the intake of manifold pressure, atmospheric pressure, vapor pressure and so on. Touch sensors are used across different types of consumer electronics products, in automotive, healthcare, aerospace and defense and in industrial and commercial sectors.
