Fiber optics sensors to witness a positive growth in the global photonics sensors market

Allied Market Research published a report titled “Global Photonics Sensors Market (Type, Technology, Application and Geography) - Size, Share, Global Trends, Company Profiles, Demand, Insights, Analysis, Research, Report, Opportunities, Segmentation and Forecast, 2013 – 2020.” The report offers holistic and insightful market data on the global photonics sensors market which would prove of immense help the market participants.

Research in the photonic science hasresulted in a tectonic shift of the global photonic sensor market. Fiber optics sensors segment would witness a skyrocketing growth during the study period. The main characteristic of fiber sensors are its sensing qualities such as mechanical strain or temperature. They also measure pressure, acceleration, displacements, rotations or concentrations of chemical class.

“There is a growing demand for smart homes and buildings due to growing energy demands and security concerns. Buildings can be built with integrated fiber optic sensors to monitors the structures and to gain all the essential information on the damage the buildings are subject to,” states AMR analyst.



The key driving factor for the growth of fiber optic sensor is its application in building that is commonly known as smart structures. “The use of fiber optic sensors in smart structures provides efficient monitoring of environmental alterations as compared to any other device. Fiber optic sensors find application in various industries and domains,” adds AMR analyst.

The market for fiber optics sensors is rapidly growing in North America due to the growing trend of Smart Homes. Analyst states  “Commercial buildings, High-end housing, restaurants and hotels, collectively account for a major consumer segment for smart homes thus indirectly boosting fiber optic sensor market.”
