It’s expected that the market will achieve USD 62.42 million by 2028, exhibiting a CAGR of 11.36% during the forecast period.

There is a high demand for tactile pressure measurement sensors in the medical industry

Sensors are increasing in importance in almost all medical devices. Sensors can increase the intelligence of medical devices such as life-support implants and enable bedside and remote monitoring of vital signs and other health factors. Using sensor technology in medical applications helps reduce costs, improve outcomes, and manage patient conditions through data-driven information, which helps in enhancing the patient experience through value-based care. In addition, the data collected by sensors can help medical professionals understand critical situations faster and more accurately while allowing patients to better understand their own conditions and improve their conditions. There is a high demand for tactile pressure measurement sensors in the medical field. For example, in order to determine whether the right amount of insulin is being delivered, a tactile pressure measurement sensor can be placed between the roller and the plastic tube of an insulin pump.
Hence, the demand for tactile pressure measurement sensors in the medical industry is driving the growth of the industry.

Increased Demand for tactile pressure measurement sensors in the Automotive Industry

Technological innovation has been a part of the industry since the automobile entered the mainstream of the world. In the global market, the automotive industry is constantly evolving. For the automotive industry, tactile pressure measurement sensors are used in the automotive industry to assist engineers in test and measurement, research and development, and quality control applications.
Tactile sensors are used to provide new interaction possibilities for the driver and the car. Through tactile sensors, surfaces can be digitized and replace traditional buttons. Furthermore, the integration of sensors can create human-machine interfaces on soft materials in automotive interiors, such as seats. In addition, tactile sensors can be used to measure automotive parameters such as tire tread performance, which is an important part of vehicle health, quality, and accident avoidance. An array of tactile sensors is fixed to the surface and measures high-speed tire pressure while the vehicle is in motion. Generate digital images of pressure maps to further analyze tire performance and potential problems, and to optimize tire tread designs. During quality control, various tactile pressure sensors embedded within the vehicle measure braking performance and various pressure points within the moving vehicle to aid in motion control.
Hence, increasing demand for tactile pressure measurement sensors in the automotive industry is driving the industry growth amid growing market demand for high-performance vehicles.
