Motion sensors are all around us. The most common application of motion sensor is the automatic doors that we come across when we walk into a grocery store. Since the mid eighteenth century, motion sensors have been used globally. In the nineteenth century, astronomers used infrared light to detect the movement of planets and stars, but back then this was its only use. The discovery of radar led to modern day motion sensing devices. Samuel Bagno used the principles of radar detection to produce the ultrasonic motion alarm.

In ancient times, farmers used to gauge the movement of stars and decided when to plant crops and harvest them. The first motion sensor system radar was pioneered by Heinrich Hertz.

The World War II gave a perfect platform for the development of motion sensors technology. Decades of study regarding the properties of waves facilitated detection of air and naval vessels. In 1940s, radar technology was adequately advanced such that the military could identify attacks in advance and guide their aircrafts. The ubiquitous utilization of radar would lead to the other uses of motion detectors after the war. The report describes the various technical advantages and insights provided by motion sensor products.

Motion sensing technology is in huge demand at the customers’ base, and the technology has been economically not accessible since many years. Motion sensing technology is an emerging one that is revolutionizing the way equipments interact with humans, and the other machines in the form of detection, not only in business and infotainment applications but also in day-to-day activities in homes.

Motion sensors’ market in 2010 was worth $1.6 billion and is expected to reach about $4.8 billion by 2016. It is expected to have a healthy CAGR of 21.7% from 2011 to 2016.

The report summarizes the different segments of the industry and the technology that has spread across the various geographies. In the scenario given below, accelerometer contributes for the maximum market share, i.e. 67.5% of the overall Global Motion Sensors market. Gyroscopes contribute for around 17.5% of the market share, and digital compass around 12.5% of the market share. However, digital compass & combo’s sensor are expected to grow at the highest CAGR of 33.3% and 43.2% respectively from 2011 to 2016.

The report is divided into chapters and they unveil the detailed description of the motion sensors market. The chapter three describes the evolution of the motion sensors market, industry life cycle of motion sensors market, target groups of applications & pricing trends of these motion sensor products, market definition & segmentation, and briefing about the drivers, restraints, and opportunities. The chapter four describes the different types of motion sensing technologies. The report also includes competitive landscape and company profiles of the top industry players for the motion sensors industry.

Industry Life Cycle of Motion Sensor

The “Motion Sensors” in consumer electronics are in the early growth phase and this trend is expected to project a good demand in the years to come on account of new applications introduced in mobile phones such as motion gaming, temperature and pressure measurement that was not seen earlier. The introduction of multiple axis and sensor fusion will extend the growth phase of motion sensors market. Motion sensors are mainly used in devices such as mobile phones, game consoles, digital cameras, and camcorders.
