The market for MEMS Accelerometers is expected to reach XX Mn in 2026.
The MEMS accelerometers market is set to grow with a promising CAGR of 4.8% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2026. Essentially directed by Asia Pacific, the MEMS accelerometers market is majorly driven by the wide application area of these accelerometers. Since their invention in 1979, MEMS accelerometers have found wide application across various end-users. MEMS accelerometers are incorporated into numerous electronic devices, such as media players, gaming devices, simulation devices, and other wireless electronic devices. In a recent trend, smartphones are using MEMS accelerometers for step counters, user interface control, and screen rotation applications. Similarly, camcorders use an accelerometer for image stabilization and anti-blur image capture. Further, MEMS accelerometers find application in contactless game controllers. IBM and Apple have recently started using MEMS accelerometers in laptops for the protection of hard drives from damage. Further, these accelerators are used for detecting car crashes and deploying airbags at the right time. MEMS accelerators are used to detect vehicle collisions by detecting rapid negative acceleration.MEMS accelerometers also find real-time application in controlling and monitoring military and aerospace systems such as direct and indirect fire, aviation-launched and ship-launched missiles, rockets, and projectiles, among others. Such a wide application area, along with constant technological advancements, is expected to drive the MEMS accelerometer market in the following years.
Three-axis MEMS accelerometers offer numerous advantages, such as detailed machine condition monitoring, greater signal integrity, a smaller size, and others. These MEMS accelerometers find primary applications in dealing with vibrations in the low-frequency range. The transition from piezoelectric sensors to MEMS-based sensors alleviated many of the limitations of existing systems for embedded and handheld condition monitoring. Other various application systems in which three-axis MEMS accelerometers play a vital role include leveling and alignment systems, inertia measurement units for heavy machinery, navigation systems, automatic guided vehicles (AGV), and construction and surveying tools. With benefits offered by three-axis accelerometers compared to other accelerometers, the segment is expected to witness promising growth in the coming years.
At the moment, the Asia-Pacific market accounts for the largest share of the global MEMS accelerometers market value. The region is also expected to exhibit comparatively higher market growth throughout the forecast period, principally due to the development of end-user industries. For example, Asia Pacific accounts for more than 30% of the global production of light motor vehicles. Similarly, in 2018, China was the leading market value-generating nation in the global consumer electronics market, accounting for more than 30% of the global market value in the same year. Furthermore, the industrial sector is based in Asia-Pacific markets. With swift growth, end-use industries, along with the growing penetration of MEMS accelerometers, are expected to witness comparatively higher growth across the globe.
