Investigación de mercado de sensores automotrices

Los sistemas automotrices son cada día más inteligentes.

The evolution and inventions for the advanced systems powered by a growing automotive market of Europe are increasing at a high pace. Sensors today define a new wave of automotive comfort and advanced technology. The European automotive sensor industry is in a highly optimistic state.

Oportunidades

A medida que la producción de vehículos continúa creciendo, los volúmenes del mercado están preparados para expandirse continuamente en todos los aspectos. Los vehículos son cada vez más sofisticados y deben cumplir normas medioambientales y de seguridad cada vez más estrictas. Los sensores son vitales para los sistemas electrónicos de los vehículos de pasajeros ligeros. Se prevé que el mercado de sensores para automóviles crezca rápidamente durante los próximos cuatro años.

Crecimiento

The volume is expected to expand from 1.13 billion units in 2005 to 1.49 billion units in 2008 with a CAGR of 10.02 percent. In Europe and the US, the automotive sensor market is expected to grow at an annual average growth rate of 9.95 percent from $5.66 billion in 2005 to $7.53 billion in 2008. The principle factors impacting the demand for automotive sensors are stringent environmental & safety legislation, cost savings, customer demand, price competition, developments in new vehicle technology such as Hybrid vehicles, and the growing passenger-vehicle production.

Innovación

The automotive sensor demand is expected to extend to a wide range of applications. While some types of sensors are likely to remain unchanged, technological innovations are common. Micro-engineered silicon products such as MEMS (Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems) and other solid-state technologies will grow rapidly, yielding low-cost, high-performance sensors for a growing range of physical and chemical variables. Industry data show that the fastest growing automotive sensor segment is Crash Avoidance, Safety and Security systems. Other significant segments include Drivetrain System, Vehicle Control & Safety, Passenger Comfort & Convenience, Emission Control, and sensors for future vehicles such as Hybrid & Hydrogen Fuel Cell vehicles.
