Pressure Sensor Market by Type (Piezoresistive, Capacitive, Piezoelectric, Resonant Solid State, Optical, Electromagnetic, and Others), Application (Automotive, Consumer Electronics, Oil & Gas, Medical, Industrial Applications, and Others): Global Market Size Estimates and Forecast (2019-2030)
The market is expected to cross US$ 15.24 billion in 2022 and is projected to hit US$ 31.43 billion by 2030, recording a CAGR of 8.4% during the forecast period.
Stringent Automotive Regulations are Expected to Boost Market Growth over the Forecast Period.
Government regulations play an important role in the growth of the pressure sensor market, especially in the automotive sector. The legislation called the Transportation Recall Enhancement, Accountability and Documentation Act in the US has mandated the installation of a tire pressure monitoring system mandatory in all vehicles. TPMS sensors measure tire air pressure and temperature and alert drivers within 20 minutes of the detection of under-inflation of the tires. The US government also requires all commercial vehicles to have passenger and side airbags installed with pressure sensors. These parameters are propelling the pressure sensor market growth.
Additionally, the European Union regulations require all new passenger car models (M1) to be equipped with a TPMS. As a result, growing concerns regarding road and human safety and vehicle security are anticipated to propel market growth. The European Union passed a zero-emissions vehicle act to decline CO2 levels in the environment. According to the act, passenger and freight vehicles weighing less than 3.5 tons must emit less than 50 g of CO2 per km. Owing to this, installation of pressure sensor is of utmost importance. The pressure sensor are vital in making engines as clean as possible, thereby reducing the emission. Thus, the rising adoption of electric vehicles in the Europe countries has increased opportunities for the automotive pressure sensor market. Moreover, according to EV-Volumes, globally 2.65 million electric cars were purchased during the first two quarters of 2021 (Q1 and Q2 2021). An approximately 168% hike in purchases was observed compared to the first half of 2020. The sales data highlights the year-on-year production volume of EVs, which showcase the demand for pressure sensors. Thus, a strong rise in EV production is expected, thereby contributing to the growth of the pressure sensor market.

The Rising Adoption of IoT by the End-Use Industry will Create Lucrative Growth Opportunities for the Market Growth.
Industry 4.0 fully automates manufacturing units with very little to negligible human interference. It works based on the Internet of Things (IoT), cyber-physical systems, cloud robotics, cloud computing, and big data. As a result, in recent years, IoT has gained the attention of technology vendors, organizations, business decision-makers, and consumers in the last few years. Industry players are focusing on adopting IoT owing to continuous technological advancements, cellular connectivity and data transfer rates, and cloud infrastructure development. Additionally, IoT is being implemented on various smart and connected devices integrated into several smart appliances, smart homes, and connected cars. Furthermore, the growing penetration of IoT in wearable devices, smart packaging solutions, intelligent clothing, and medical wearables has led to increased demand for low-cost and lightweight wireless pressure sensors for ubiquitous sensing and secured data storage and transmission.
Rising Demand for Pressure Sensors in Consumer Goods and Home Appliances is Another Major Factor Accelerating the Pressure Sensor Market Growth.
The increasing use of pressure sensors in wearables and household appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines is anticipated to boost the demand for pressure sensors over the forecast period. Numerous pressure sensor providers also focus on developing innovative products to provide a better customer experience. For instance, in March 2021, Bosch Sensortec, a pressure sensor provider, launched BMP384, a robust barometric pressure sensor. BMP384 is a high-performance, low-consumption sensor, which makes it ideal for home appliances, wearables, and industrial applications in harsh environments.
