Custom Technology & Market Briefing 10:
Automotive MEMS market 2006 - 2011
The automotive sector has long been a growth market for MEMS
sensors. However, the industry continues to change and face new
opportunities and challenges - regulations, saturation in some
applications and price erosion issues, to name a few.
Our estimates show the automotive sector accounted for $1.6 billion in
2006. By 2011 the market will top $2.2 billion, a CAGR of around 7%.
The main applications in revenues terms are, in order, pressure
sensors, gyroscopes, accelerometers and flow sensors and this will
remain so for the foreseeable future.
WTC has recently updated its market data on automotive MEMS markets. In
this custom market briefing WTC will build on its existing knowledge to
answer questions facing companies in this tough industry.
