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.
Sensors are widely used to measure temperature, humidity, pressure, air quality and other environmental parameters. Advances in sensing technologies are increasing the functionality and performance of devices in many industries including consumer, wearable devices, medical, industrial and automotive applications.
The aim of this report is to provide vendor profiles of the main companies that are active in the area of environmental sensors and particularly the applications and use cases for temperature, humidity, pressure and air quality sensors. This list is not exhaustive; the accompanying excel spreadsheet “Environmental Sensors Vendor Database” further details vendors of sensor technology that also contribute to this industry.
