From self-driving cars to smart homes, systems are increasingly making decisions based on the environment around them. A sensor is a component that uses modern wireless technology to perceive its surroundings and transmit real-time data. Crucial to automation, sensors work to connect different devices and systems to allow interactions that deliver environmental changes.
Sensors are critical for making a more connected world possible. They enhance consumer comfort, safety and efficiency and when integrated, work to ensure the device itself can perform most effectively over long periods of time. Sensors and sensing systems are changing the way consumers interact with the environment, both inside and outside of their homes.
The aim of this report is to provide deeper insight into aspects of the environmental sensors industry including smart home devices and health & wellness applications. Its aim is to build on Strategy Analytics’ previously published reports on Environmental Sensors including Vendor Profiles and Consumer Perceptions from the UXIP research team and market size forecasts from SA’s Smart Home research team.
