CMOS Image Sensor Market size was valued at USD 21.42 billion in 2023 and is projected to exceed USD 52.89 billion by 2036, expanding at over 7.2% CAGR during the forecast period i.e., between 2024-2036. In the year 2024, the industry size of CMOS image sensor is evaluated at USD 22.65 billion. The growth of the market can be attributed to the rising demand for high-definition image-capturing devices worldwide. For instance, in June 2019, Sony Corporation revealed the IMX415 type 1/2.8 4K CMOS image sensor and the IMX485 type 1/1.2 4K-resolution back-illuminated CMOS image sensor. In order to meet the constantly expanding need for security cameras in a variety of monitoring applications, such as anti-theft, disaster warning, and traffic monitoring systems or commercial complexes, Sony developed these two security camera sensors.
There is growing adoption of CMOS technology owing to its faster shutter speed beside maintaining good quality of image. Healthcare care industry has shown greater adoption of CMOS technology. This technology is extensively used for surgical procedure. Such factorsare therefore anticipated to drive the growth of the market over the forecast period. According to the data collected by National Library of Medicine from 192 WHO member approximately 234.2 million major surgery procedures are performed annually in the world.
Growth Drivers
Rising Demand for Security and Surveillance- Security is a major concern for people owing to the increasing thefts and attacks. This is expected to drive the market growth. However, owing to the privacy concern they can’t be installed everywhere. Hence many organizations are coming up with an upgraded solution. For Instance, Canon unveiled a new outdoor 4K camera in December 2021 that can be used as both a regular camera and a security camera. It can also merge every 4K UHD pixel the 4K UHD CMOS image sensor has ever recorded.
Rising Demand for Consumer Electronics- Spending on home electronics and appliances in China has increased significantly and is expected to keep rising. In 2021, it was estimated to be around 230 million dollars.
Growing Technology Advancement - Researchers from the Advanced Quantum Architecture Laboratory (AQUA), Ecole polytechniquefédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), and Device Research & Design Department, Canon Inc. developed a new time-gating strategy that uses fewer than eight transistors to get around the constraints of image sensors. They asserted that their novel approach has great promise for scaling photon-counting image sensors toward megapixel sensor resolution and sub-100-ps timing resolution.
Growing Terrorist Attacks- Middle East, Africa, and South Asia accounted for 95% of global death owing to terrorist attacks in 2019.
Increase in Rate of Surgery- It is estimated that an approximately 14 million people in America undergo some sort of surgery every year.
Challenges
Low-megapixel camera consists of several disadvantages. While zooming in, cropping, or printing photographs taken by low-megapixel camera suffers owing to its low image quality. Low-megapixel camera does carry low cost but backed by its inability to take high resolution photographs the demand for CMOS image sensor market is expected to hinder.
