Market Definition
Flexible sensors can be seamlessly incorporated into soft, asymmetrical surfaces like human skin or fabric. This is advantageous for conformability-reliant applications like soft robotics, intelligent tattoos, and synthetic skin. Humans rely increasingly on sensors in the big data and digitization era to solve complex issues and improve their quality of life. For ubiquitous sensing, flexible sensors are being developed to address the drawbacks of their conventional rigid counterparts.
Europe Flexible Sensors Market Dynamics
Drivers
- The healthcare industry's high utilization rate could spur growth
The healthcare industry makes extensive use of flexible sensors. Adopting digital technologies, agile processes, and seamless techniques in healthcare has altered manufacturers' priorities. Today, adjustable sensor technologies are more appealing to these manufacturers than larger hardware sensors. In addition, new tools and technology have been quickly incorporated into healthcare architecture. It is reasonable to assume that the global market for flexible sensors will continue to grow over the upcoming years. The existence of a healthy healthcare industry that is open to implementing new technologies will increase market demand.
- The use of smart wearables and other devices has increased.
The growing popularity of smart wearable products is driving the market for flexible sensors. The market for flexible sensors is expanding at an accelerated rate due to the increasing development of small and robust electronic devices, which increases the use of printed sensors and consumer preference for flexible goods like smart wearables, flexible smartphones, and other products. The market for flexible sensors is impacted by the use of sensors in producing quick and easy-to-use devices and the growing popularity of smart, flexible products due to their low risk of product breakage.
Opportunities
- Digital technologies create expansion in the market.
As automation, artificial intelligence, and facial recognition technologies proliferate, the market for flexible sensors will keep growing. Flexible fingerprint sensors can be incorporated into products like mobile phones and wearables, bringing capabilities to biometric applications. There is an increased need for ultra-thin sensors that can be applied to non-flat surfaces and mass-produced over large areas. Flex Enable Limited, for example, industrialized the first flexible 500 dpi fingerprint sensor on a plastic substrate that enables both small and large-area fingerprint scanning. In terms of digital technology, the market for flexible sensors will also expand more quickly due to the development of the electronic device sector, rapid urbanization, and industrialization.
- Printing sensors for sustainable energy production creates demand.
Innovation and science have many options, given the focus on renewable energy and the need for environmental sustainability. The development of versatile tools and equipment that can be applied in renewable energy sector has been successful for several research organizations. The use of printable and flexible sensors gives these devices their agility and skill. Flexible sensors are frequently used in industrial settings as well. These sensors are smaller and more advantageous for the end users.
Restraints/Challenges
- Negatives of flexible sensors can limit the growth
Conducive ink's affordability and ease of use further restrain market growth, which will be detrimental to the flexible sensors market. As a result, this will hinder the market growth rate for flexible sensors. Another reason for the market's slowdown is the current nascent stage of manufacturing technology.
- High costs can act as a growth barrier.
The flexible sensors' extensive setup requirements raise the system's cost as a whole. Due to this factor, the market for flexible sensors will find it challenging to grow. The Internet of Things (IoT) relies heavily on flexible sensors. IoT has a price that not everyone can easily afford to pay. Flexible sensors' expensive manufacturing costs nevertheless constrain the market.
