MEMs Sensors Market Driving Forces MEMS market is ripe for consolidation 25 participants with measurable market share Huge growth coming from the digital economy Digital ecosystem depends on sensors Driven by IoT Driven by self-driving cars Driven by artificial intelligence Driven by robots Driven by augmented reality Driven by drones Driven by interoperability Freedom to move workloads anywhere in the cloud ecosystem Source: WinterGreen Research, Inc. Micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMs) technology is used in the fabrication of inertial sensors, and particularly accelerometers. MEMs accelerometers are used in diverse markets that implement the digital economy. The reason for their success is low price, small size, high reliability, and low power consumption. MEMs accelerometers are replacing traditional electro-mechanical accelerometers because they offer tactical grade performance. They provide the functionality required to measure motion in three-dimensional space. Digital signal processors calibrate the sensors during runtime. They intelligently convert raw sensor data from multiple sensors. The output from MEMs sensors creates application-specific data. The total value of the MEMs sensor market is $12.5 billion in 2017, up from $10.35 billion in 2016. Markets grow to $58.7 billion in 2024. Growth is a result of the implementation of the digital economy, IoT, robots, drones, self-driving cars, and artificial intelligence. The digital economy rides on the back of MEMs sensors. This is the new world aspect, everything is monitored and activated digitally.
MEMs organic volume growth has been relatively slow as existing motion sensor and traditional end-product markets achieve market saturation. There are new and growing opportunities, including the newer IoT applications that are in the early adopter phase. IoT sensors have yet to gain significant market traction but they will, once units are proven in real life situations of the digital economy, self-driving cars, drones, traffic lights, and smart things. According to Susan Eustis, leader of the team that prepared the research, MEMs suppliers have a focus on sensor improvement. Power and performance are being improved. Everything will be connected, said SoftBank Chief Executive Masayoshi Son, announcing a ARM processor deal in London. Cows will be connected, chickens will be connected, the sheep will be connected. As a significant market does take root, MEMs sensors face the challenge of generating profit above costs. The companies keep prices low to buy customers and spur demand. MEMs vendors seek to be in businesses where there are millions and billions of units.

This is the 729th report in a series of primary market research reports that provide forecasts in robpts, communications, telecommunications, the Internet, computer, software, telephone equipment, health equipment, and energy. Automated process and significant growth potential are priorities in topic selection. The project leaders take direct responsibility for writing and preparing each report. They have significant experience preparing industry studies. Forecasts are based on primary research and proprietary data bases. This Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems study is based on tracking integration software and dynamic processing that provides significant insight into the technology of Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems. Experience implementing broadband networking and mobile systems for different technologies using the Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems has been evaluated in many different contexts. Evaluation of the changes brought to the supply chain and transaction processing by the Internet are among factors that contribute to development of triangulation regarding market forecasts for the sector. The primary research is conducted by talking to customers, distributors and companies. The survey data is not enough to make accurate assessment of market size, so WinterGreen Research looks at the value of shipments and the average price to achieve market assessments. Our track record in achieving accuracy is unsurpassed in the industry. We are known for being able to develop accurate market shares and projections. This is our specialty. The analyst process is concentrated on getting good market numbers. This process involves looking at the markets from several different perspectives, including vendor shipments. The interview process is an essential aspect as well. We do have a lot of granular analysis of the different shipments by vendor in the study and addenda prepared after the study was published if that is appropriate. Forecasts reflect analysis of the market trends in the segment and related segments. Unit and dollar shipments are analyzed through consideration of dollar volume of each market participant in the segment. Installed base analysis and unit analysis is based on interviews and an information search. Market share analysis includes conversations with key customers of products, industry segment leaders, marketing directors, distributors, leading market participants, opinion leaders, and companies seeking to develop measurable market share. Over 200 in depth interviews are conducted for each report with a broad range of key participants and industry leaders in the market segment. We establish accurate market forecasts based on economic and market conditions as a base. Use input/output ratios, flow charts, and other economic methods to quantify data.
