Image sensor Market Overview     

Image sensors are electronic devices that convert an optical image into an electronic signal. It is mainly used in digital cameras as well as imaging devices to convert the light received on the imaging device lens or camera into a digital image. It is being used in a large number of imaging devices used in industrial, media, medical, and consumer applications. The Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology enabled a shift in the industry for designing advanced image sensors owing to its enhanced efficiency; hence, driving the image sensors market growth.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis:

The global Image sensor market has witnessed a slight decline in sales for the short term to the lockdown enforcement placed by governments in order to contain COVID spreading. The restrictions imposed by various nations to contain COVID had stopped production resulting in disruption across the whole supply chain.  

However, the global markets are slowly opening to their full potential, and theirs a surge in demand. The market would remain bullish in the upcoming year.  The decrease in the global Image sensor market size in 2020 is estimated on the basis of the COVID-19 outbreak and its negative impact on the economies and industries across the globe. Various scenarios have been analyzed on the basis of inputs from various secondary sources and the current data available about the situation.   

Image sensor Market Growth Factors

With the growing demand for cameras, smartphones, and security cameras the image sensors market is experiencing significant growth. Furthermore, growing competition between established charge-coupled device (CCD) image sensors and the new complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensors is impelling the growth of this industry. With CMOS image sensors improving gradually and moving toward higher-level performance with better integration capabilities and cost advantages.

The main difference between the two types of sensors is that Pixels in a CCD image sensor capture the light and move it to the edge of the chip where it is converted into a digital signal. In contrast, pixels in a CMOS sensor capture light and directly convert it into a digital signal. The uptake of CMOS image sensors in automotive and consumer electronics devices is anticipated to be a growth driver for the CMOS image sensor market. However, the declining growth of still cameras and the high manufacturing cost of image sensors are restraining the growth of this market.

Nonetheless, increasing the application of these sensors in gesture recognition devices, self-driving cars, and in body-worn camera applications will give momentum to the image sensor market during the forecast period.

Image sensor Market Segment Analysis

Market segmentation of the image sensors is done on the basis of technology, array type, application, and region.
