The increasing demand for smart factories and IIoT is a key factor driving the growth of the Internet of Things sensors market. The need for smart factories has increased around the world in the past few years. This trend is expected to continue during the forecast period with the emergence of IIoT, which integrates smart machines, warehouses, industrial robots, and entire manufacturing plants to achieve business objectives and key performance indicators (KPIs).
Moreover, a variety of IoT sensors placed in factories collect and relay real-time information to enable relevant ground-based decisions and assist operators. Among other things, sensor information can also guide robots and machines in performing production and assembly processes and handling toxic chemicals, ensuring the safety of the human workforce. It also protects the machine from damage. Therefore, when IIoT is integrated into the factory, the factory becomes a connected and synchronized entity. Manufacturing companies in countries such as China and Germany are already adopting IoT sensors to ensure better communication and precise coordination between organizations.
High demand for real-time data monitoring for predictive analytics is a major trend driving the growth of the Internet of Things sensors market. Industries around the world are using big data to improve process efficiency. In the past, disconnected devices prevented real-time data collection, making it difficult to gather insights from devices. With the help of IoT-connected smart devices, operators can access any data in the factory. Predictive analytics help during maintenance as companies can plan maintenance based on predictive analytics. By collecting real-time data, vendors can understand the condition of plant equipment based on the actual condition. This allows the US to predict equipment failure before it occurs and avoid unnecessary downtime.
Moreover, the end users are evolving through technological advancements and the use of machine learning, IoT, and artificial intelligence. By using digitized unstructured and structured data collected through IoT-enabled industrial wearables, end-users can predict future events in functional areas such as operations, marketing, finance, human resources, and manufacturing. Such advantages are driving the adoption of IoT sensors across the manufacturing industry and are expected to drive the growth of the global IoT sensors market during the forecast period.
Challenges to offering high quality at low cost may hamper the Internet of Things (IoT) sensors market growth. Engineers and system developers are constantly researching products with improved properties to expand their portfolio. As the industrial automation market gains momentum, it becomes increasingly important for industrial sensor vendors to provide easily customizable and affordable industrial sensors. A major factor that makes industrial sensors expensive is the customization companies require of their end users to enable accurate and reliable delivery. The cost of sensors is decreasing year by year, especially due to the availability of off-the-shelf sensor variants that are widely used in industrial automation systems and equipment.
However, sensors customized for specific industrial process control applications will be more expensive during the forecast period due to their relative technological sophistication. Sensors for automating industrial applications use careful construction, hand wiring, and expensive components. Such factors will hamper the demand for IoT sensors during the forecast period.
The market share growth by the consumer electronics segment will be significant during the forecast period. IoT sensors are widely used in the consumer electronics industry. The consumer electronics industry is expanding significantly due to increased demand for wearable technology and smart home gadgets.
