San Francisco, Dec. 14, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
The global market for proximity and displacement sensors is expected to reach over USD 6 billion by 2022, growing at an estimated CAGR of around 9% from 2015 to 2022, according to a new study by Grand View Research, Inc. Technical advancement leading to miniaturization of proximity and displacement sensors is one of the key trends driving the global market towards growth.
Moreover, factory process automation, growing awareness towards energy efficiency and rising demand for elevators and escalators are some of the major factors driving the growth of the market. In addition, booming market for smart-phones, tablets and other gadgets is propelling the demand for the sensors globally. Considering all the above mentioned factors, the global market is anticipated to reach over USD 6 billion.
However, the implementation of integral automation system attracts a huge amount of initial investment, leading to rise in the overall cost to customers. Thus, high cost of the sensors is primarily challenging the growth of the global market.
