The global demand for Proximity and Displacement Sensors Market is presumed to reach the market size of nearly USD 13.37 MN by 2028 from USD 6.52 MN in 2021 with a CAGR of 10.8% under the study period 2022 - 2028.
Proximity and displacement sensors are usually integrated with devices such as tablets, smartphones, and play stations. Proximity sensors perform non-contact detection without physical contact and relay that information captured into an electrical signal. Proximity sensors are highly reliable and have a long functional life. On the other side displacement sensor is a device that measures the distance between the sensor and an object by detecting the amount of displacement through a variety of elements and converting it into a distance. Displacement sensors are easy to use and rugged, can achieve high precision and feature minimum wear.
Market Dynamics
The growing trend of process automation in manufacturing companies and consistent development in the tablet and smartphone market are driving the growth of the proximity and displacement sensor market.
