The magnetic sensor market is the international industry concerned with the research, manufacture, and sale of sensors which can measure changes in magnetic fields. Such sensors have some common applications that include automotive systems (e.g. in position sensing and speed sensing), consumer industry goods (e.g. in smartphones, tablet replicas) industrial automation systems and medical equipment. The market is stimulated by growing demand of the advanced sense solutions in automobiles, the Industry 4.0 automation, and the smart devices. Precision and reliability predominate the space through the use of such technologies as Hall-effect sensors, magnetoresistive sensors, and fluxgate sensors.

 

Magnetic Sensor Market Overview

 

Magnetic Sensor Market Driver Analysis

 

Growing Adoption in Automotive Industry

 

Automotive Magnetic sensors significantly support the automotive industry by making progress in advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), electric power steering, speed detection and position sensing of electric and hybrid cars. Through these sensors, it becomes possible to measure and track in real time a number of vehicle parts accurately, a feature that is useful to enhance safety, performance, and also energy consumption. At ADAS, the magnetic sensors serve functions to create features that involve lane-keeping assistance, adaptive cruise control, and automatically braking by capturing high accuracy on the speed and positions of the wheels. They are used to sense torque and steering angle in the electric power steering systems, which make them respond swiftly.

 

Magnetic Sensor Market Restraint Analysis

 

High Sensitivity to External Magnetic Interference

 

External magnetic fields can interfere with the usage of magnetic sensors by affecting their sensitivity to the targeted signals due to the performance degradation caused by such external magnetic fields. These external influences in an area where electromagnetic interference (EMI) is considered (i.e., the vicinity of heavy machinery, power lines, or other electronic equipment) can alter the sensor readings resulting in decrease in their reliability and possible errors being made on the system. Such sensitivity is a problem, especially in high-priority applications such as in industrial automation or automotive safety systems, where precision and and repeatability are critical.

 

Magnetic Sensor Market Opportunity Analysis

 

Growth in Electric and Autonomous Vehicles

 

Rising uses of both electric vehicles (EVs) and autonomous vehicles are accompanying the requirement of high-performance magnetic sensing technologies to rise significantly. All of these sensors are necessary to assure effective position, speed, and current sensations within various automobile systems: motor control, battery management, and navigation. Magnetic sensors enable EVs to check the direction of motor rotation and maximize its usage, which leads to better performance and efficiency. They are essential in autonomous vehicles, as they facilitate high precision in the movement and awareness of space, which is crucial to the operation in terms of safety and reliability. The demand of high-quality, reliable, and durable magnetic sensors is likely to increase considerably with the events of electrification and automation of automotive industry.

 

Magnetic Sensor Market Trend Analysis

 

Shift Toward Contactless Sensing

 

Non-contact position and current sensing is increasingly needed, particularly in hygienically critical or otherwise harsh areas. The magnetic sensors are especially suited to such applications because, being a non-contact sensor there are reduced stresses involved, as well as a minimised risk of contamination. Where hygiene and sterility is paramount (as in food processing, pharmaceuticals and healthcare) non-contact sensing conforms to hygiene standards. On the same note, the magnetic sensors can be used in the industrial environment handling dust, moisture, high temperatures, and in corrosive environments where they perform reliably and are not influenced by the harsh environment.
