Sensors, Haptics & Displays

IDTechEx outlines the competition Neuralink is facing from not only other invasive brain computer interface developers, but also from the more established eco-system of non-invasive solution providers.

Wednesday 2 October 2024 - Automotive Infrared Camera Technologies: Markets for Seeing Inside and Outside the Vehicle. Overview of ADAS and in-cabin sensing, including current market landscape; Analysis of automotive NIR cameras compared to visible light cameras; Analysis of automotive LWIR cameras, including developing technologies to drive adoption; Analysis of automotive SWIR cameras and their potential to enter the market; Summary of market analysis, and IDTechEx's predictions up to 2035

The capabilities of haptic feedback technologies have grown far beyond adding rumble to game controllers or silent notifications to cellphones. Market growth is expected to be chiefly driven by the growing adoption of haptics in non-traditional markets, particularly vehicle interiors.

Conductive inks are a diverse and versatile technology, with differing price points to suit various applications. Conductivity, stretchability, cost, and durability are just some of the factors of consideration for manufacturers when selecting ink types and materials, and IDTechEx's latest report, Conductive Inks Market 2024-2034: Technologies, Applications, Players, deep dives into the many combinations available.

The gas sensor market is a diverse sector that incorporates a variety of core gas sensing technologies and emerging technologies for indoor and outdoor air quality monitoring. IDTechEx expects environmental applications of gas sensors to see the most growth going forward, as there is a need for measuring gases from a wider array of sources than ever before.

The autonomous truck industry is experiencing a significant revival, with vehicle delivery numbers continuously breaking records. Companies across Asia, Europe, and the United States are eagerly advancing into the commercialization testing phase. Autonomous trucks are addressing critical real-world issues by reducing transportation costs and optimizing Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) through meticulous, practical calculations.

Autonomous emergency braking (AEB) is one of the most important ADAS (advanced driver assistance systems) features a vehicle can have. Studies have shown that pedestrian crash risk is reduced by 25-27% and pedestrian injury crash risk by 29-30% through the implementation of AEB.

Silver-flake-based inks currently dominate the conductive inks market, but the outlook for non-silver inks is set to change dramatically over the coming decade, with a CAGR of 24%. Stretchable/thermoformable inks and copper inks will seize the largest market share, driven by applications such as in-mold electronics, wearable electrodes, and RFID & smart packaging.
