Global Ultrasonic Sensor Market size is projected to be valued $1,835 Million by 2025; with a CAGR of 17.6% from 2017 to 2025. An ultrasonic sensor is a device that uses sound waves with frequency higher than the human audible range to measure the distance to an object. They have the ability to detect any transparent objects as well as very complex shaped objects. Ultrasonic sensors follow three main physical principles such as the Doppler Effect, time of flight and the attenuation of sound waves. Ultrasonic sensors are widely used in various medical inspections owing to its ability of real time visualization.
Need for advanced features in vehicles and rise in demand from healthcare and pulp & paper industry are fueling the growth of the market. Moreover, increasing popularity of wearable medical devices and increasing need for automation across various industries is also boosting the growth of the market. However, ability to absorb sound by low-density materials and presence of other technologies may hinder the growth of the market. Furthermore, entry of new players to focus on emerging economies and increasing R&D for improve product offering would provide growth opportunities in the coming years.
