Covid-19 Impact on Image Sensor Market:

Like many other industries, COVID-19 badly knocked the electronic and semiconductor industries. This unprecedented event has impacted nearly 230 countries in just a few weeks, resulting in the forced shutdown of manufacturing and transportation activities within and across the countries. This has directly affected the overall sector's growth. It is estimated that COVID-19 to leave more than USD 30 billion impacts on the electronics and semiconductor industry. The sector is majorly affected due to transport restrictions on major electronics and semiconductor raw material providers. However, the emerging need for semiconductors in several industries will offer rapid market recovery over the future period.

Market Overview

Image sensors are used largely in large number of digital cameras and imaging devices to improve the quality of image. These applications have found the high adoption in automotive, industrial, media, medical, and the consumer applications. The companies, across the world, are determined to improve the major parameters, such as performance, resolution, and pixel size for the better quality in the unwanted circumstances.
The industry has observed steep growth in past few years owed to the growing number of the technological advancements and application segments leading to the expansion of sophisticated sensing technology.

The major factor responsible for the technology’s success is capability to make smaller pixels and deliver more resolution with the low cost. With integration of such devices with computation devices and commutation services, there is growing need to develop the improved processes for the better optical performance.

Segment Overview

CMOS are dominating the market presently, owing to the various associated performance over CCD sensors. It is projected that CMOS offer higher resolution, improved noise characteristics, high-speed frame rate, and quantum efficiency, that has made many players prefer the technology over CCD.
Owing to the improved R and D, the devices have become smaller in size, cheaper, and consume less power, that serves as a fascinating opportunity for the industry participants. Customer preference towards the wearable devices is likely to boost CMOS image sensor market during the forecast period. Growing preference for various multimedia devices is rapidly supported by the growth in the mobile devices.
