A thermopile infrared detector is a type of thermal detector that uses the Seebeck effect to generate an electric signal proportional to the incident infrared light energy. The thermopile consists of a series of small thermocouples on a silicon chip that absorb the infrared radiation and produce a temperature difference between the hot and cold junctions. The thermopile detector can measure the temperature of an object from a distance by detecting its infrared emission, without requiring physical contact. Thermopile detectors are widely used in applications such as gas measurement, fire detection, non-contact thermometers, and medical devices.

The industry trend of thermopile infrared detectors is expected to be positive and growing in the coming years, according to various market reports . Some of the factors that drive the demand for this product are:

The increasing adoption of thermopile detectors in medical applications, such as non-contact thermometers, ear thermometers, and skin temperature measurement devices, especially due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the need for rapid and accurate diagnosis .

The rising demand for thermopile detectors in smart home and building automation systems, such as HVAC control, fire detection, occupancy sensing, and energy efficiency management.

The growing popularity of thermopile detectors in consumer electronics and automotive sectors, such as gesture recognition, facial recognition, driver monitoring, night vision, and parking assistance.

The global market size of thermopile infrared detectors was estimated to be around $300 million in 2020 and is projected to reach $450 million by 2028, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.6%. The major regions that contribute to the market share are North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America. The key challenges that the industry faces are the high cost of thermopile sensors, the competition from other types of infrared detectors, and the environmental regulations on the use of certain materials.
