Market Definition
A touch sensor is defined as an electronic sensor used to detect and record physical touch. They are considered economical miniature-sized alternatives to traditional mechanical switches. The sensor generally works when a contact or pressure is applied on the surface, which allows the current to flow through the circuit. They are of various types, including capacitive, resistive, infrared, and surface acoustic wave (SAW).
They are used in various applications, including consumer electronics, medical devices, and automotive, due to their numerous advantages. Consumer electronics devices range from entertainment systems such as speakers to communication devices such as mobiles to smart homes and home automation.
The Market Dynamics of the Global Touch Sensor Market Include:
- Growing adoption of touch-based displays
The world has steadily shifted from traditional mechanical devices to modern touch-based devices. Individuals, business houses, and manufacturing companies adopt touch-based display and interface for better visualization and experience. One of the primary reasons for advocacy is that they are interactive, engaging, and very simple to operate. The mouse and keyboard have been replaced by a simple user interface that is highly responsive and can be easily used for navigation. They are also highly durable and resilient, due to which they have a longer life. Thus, the rapid incorporation of touch-based and touch-screen devices across industries ranging from restaurants to manufacturing companies to financial services is a factor that may drive the growth of the market.
- Rising demand for consumer electronics
The upward trend in demand for consumer electronics fueled by the strong demand for devices with better features is a major factor that is anticipated to drive the growth of the global touch sensor market.
- Increasing use of touch sensors in the automotive industry
Touch control has been in use for many years but was limited in its application. However, as the various industry verticals are shifting from mechanical to touch-based systems, touch devices have been explosion. The automotive industry has become one of the major users of touch displays and is expected to boost the growth of the global touch sensor market.
- Government initiatives for digitalization
Digitalization has radically transformed our lives, and the advent of this pandemic has turned this on its head. It has forced economies around the world to rethink their strategies and keep the country running. It has cast a spotlight on their shortfalls in terms of transformation. The government's push towards digitalization through initiatives and foreign investments is a major factor projected to drive the market's growth.
- Rising demand for interactive digital signage
On-premise displays were first introduced in the 1970s when big CRT televisions were used as displays for content management. By 1980, it was used widely in retail space. However, in 2000, software-driven signage exploded and became widely popular. A decade later, flexible and curved displays came into the picture, and it paved the way for machine-machine and human-machine interaction giving rise to interactive digital signage. Technological progression and high-speed connectivity have opened a new door of possibilities.
Restraints/Challenges faced by the Touch Sensor Market
- Declining demand for all-in-one-pcs
Today, PCs are widely used across all companies for their work. A normal computer comes with a separate CPU, monitor, and other components, whereas in an All-In-One (AIO) PC, all the parts are components are integrated into the monitor. Apple iMac is considered one of the most successful AIO in general. In general, AIO is very attractive and features a touch-screen monitor. As more companies are providing laptops to their employees for working from home instead of all in one PC, thus it is expected to restrain the market's growth.
- Chip supply shortages
The leaders and executives at multinational corporations in Asia-Pacific are worried about the scarcity of semiconductors, which has hit manufacturing and sales in numerous countries, and no early solution is in sight. This poses a significant challenge to the growth of the market.
