Inertial Measurement Unit Market Dynamics

Drivers: High volume production of smartphones

The increase in new smartphones sales and shipments across the globe is one of the key factors driving the growth of the IMU market. According to International Data Corporation (IDC), the shipment volume of smartphones reached 1,292.2 million units in 2020. The demand for smartphones is strong in the largest markets such as China, the US, Brazil, Japan, etc. The penetration of smartphones is increasing significantly in countries with a high gross population such as India, Nigeria, and Pakistan, and will fuel the growth of the smartphones market during the forecast period. Additionally, many smartphones include inertial measurement units that normally include a gyro sensor, accelerometer, and magnetometer. The IMUs installed in smartphones enable them to measure the gait, tremor, and movement characteristics of humans. Therefore, increasing shipment of smartphones is driving the growth of the inertial measurement unit market.

Opportunities: Booming VR and AR technologies

AR is a technology that uses the existing environment to overlay new information on top of it, whereas VR provides the user with a virtual environment with the help of hardware and software equipped in a computing device. It also provides a fully immersive environment where the user can interact with objects similar to those in the real world. AR is used to enhance the visual experience using virtual tools such as graphics, digital images, and simulations to add a new layer of interaction with the real environment. VR can create a virtual world with computer-generated and machine-driven reality. IMU is a key component used to measure speed, orientation, and specific gravity or acceleration to augment VR into the real world. Increasing product launches is also driving the growth of the market. For instance, in 2018, Bosch Sensortec launched the BMI085, a 6-axis high-performance IMU. It includes a 3-axis 16-bit MEMS acceleration sensor and a 3-axis 16-bit MEMS gyroscope in a single package. The BMI085 provides responsive motion sensors, enhanced precision, robustness, and reduced time lag. This makes the device ideal for high-performance AR/VR applications

Challenges: Error propagation

Stable platform IMUs depend on various mechanical parts inter-connected to each other with different joints for their functioning. These joints need to be frictionless to avoid any measurement error. With continued usage and wear and tear, the errors caused due to friction increase, which, in turn, hampers the performance of these systems. Apart from friction, there are a few computational errors that are induced as a result of noise and drifts. For instance, MEMS inertial sensors encompass very tiny mechanical components weighing in micrograms. These parts are so light that they occasionally fail to react to small changes with respect to orientation. Thus, friction and drifts induce a measurement error, which gets propagated in the long run.

Increasing need to measure angular velocity in three dimensions is expected to fuel the growth of the gyroscope segment in the inertial measurement unit market during the forecast period.

The gyroscope segment is estimated to lead the market during the forecast period, with a share of 57% in 2021. Gyroscopes are used in various devices to calculate their actual velocity until these devices stabilize and provide the measurement of the angular velocity proportional to the external torque applied. They are used in different types of aircraft. Gyroscopes find application in the defense sector. They are also used in various industrial applications. Gyroscopes are extensively used in the consumer electronics and automotive industries. They are widely used in smartphones, owing to their orientation and rotation measurement capabilities.

The MEMS segment is projected to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

Based on technology, the MEMS segment is projected to be the highest CAGR rate for the inertial measurement unit market during the forecast period. These small, lightweight systems have an advantage over other types of IMUs due to their less weight and comparatively higher accuracy with a compact size.
