Global Underwater Hydrophones Market 2024 by Manufacturers, Regions, Type and Application, Forecast to 2030
According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Underwater Hydrophones market size was valued at USD 127.6 million in 2023 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 171.4 million by 2030 with a CAGR of 4.3% during review period.
A hydrophone is a microphone designed to be used underwater for recording or listening to underwater sound. Most hydrophones are based on a piezoelectric transducer that generates an electric potential when subjected to a pressure change, such as a sound wave. Some piezoelectric transducers can also serve as a sound projector, but not all have this capability, and some may be destroyed if used in such a manner.
The market for underwater hydrophones has been experiencing significant growth due to the increasing applications of hydrophones in underwater research, marine life monitoring, defense and surveillance, offshore oil and gas exploration, and environmental monitoring. Hydrophones are underwater microphones that detect and analyze sound waves in water, making them crucial for various underwater activities and studies.
