by Ken Hyers | Sep 02, 2018

The modern smartphone is laden with sensors for detecting a range of factors including position, location, altitude, ambient light, temperature and proximity to other objects, along with many others. Smartphones are incredibly complex and able to detect and process amazing amounts of information about their environment. In the era of AI, sensors are an integral part of modern handsets, providing vast amounts of information on surroundings and usage.

Strategy Analytics' Emerging Device Technologies research practice, in a new report Global Smartphone Embedded Sensors Forecast: 2008 to 2023, drills down into the evolution of sensors in handsets and the companion processors that power them. The report provides forecasts and analysis for 8 key sensors and sensor coprocessors in modern smartphones. This report covers all major global regions including North America, Central & Latin America, Western Europe, Central & Eastern Europe, Africa Middle East and Asia Pacific. The report provides both historical and forecast data for the 2008 to 2023 period.

This extensive report can be used by component manufacturers, handset vendors, operators and developers to identify or prioritize the most popular features penetrating billions of mobile devices worldwide.
