A Study by MarketsandMarkets predicts that the market for motion sensors will grow by an average of 21.8% by 2016 to reach $4.8 billion at that time.
Today, consumer and automotive products represent the main market for this type of sensors, especially smartphones and tablets, but many other markets are expected to emerge rapidly, including interactive displays, industrial machinery, medical equipment, missiles, etc.
The MarketsandMarkets study examines in detail the different technologies of motion sensors (passive infrared, ultrasound, microwaves, tomography) as well as large product families , (accelerometers, gyroscopes, digital compasses, in the form of MEMS microstructures).
