The Latin America, Middle East and Africa Capacitive Sensor Market would witness market growth of 9.3% CAGR during the forecast period (2020-2026).
Capacitive sensors are becoming more popular due to their superior sensitivity, greater durability and higher measurement precision than inductive or resistive sensors. These sensors are undergoing accelerated advancements to meet the advanced user interface requirements of current applications. Capacitive sensor technology is witnessing rapid advances to meet the advanced user interface needs of modern applications. The growing demand for capacitive sensors, due to their more exceptional durability, increased sensitivity, and higher measurement accuracy than resistive or inductive sensors is one of the main factors driving the growth of the market.
Moreover, the increasing demand for multi-touch screens that provide features such as pinch to zoom is anticipated to drive the market in consumer electronics. Growing demand for capacitive sensors in consumer electronic products such as multi-touchscreens, multi-media devices, tablets, and smartphones and gaming consoles is a core driver of market growth. In addition, the increasing demand for these devices incorporating touch screens contributes to increased demand for capacitive touch sensors.
Capacitive sensing is used in a wide range of consumer electronic applications to replace mechanical buttons and switches with a sleek, robust touch interface. When the user’s finger is close enough to the display, the capacitance of the sensor under the screen changes and allows the system to accurately determine the relative position of the finger. The flexibility and cost advantages of touch-based interfaces, as well as improved interfaces made possible by gesture recognition, have led to the rapid adoption of capacitive touch sensing in almost every industry. Nevertheless, the same capacitive technology used to detect the touch can also be used to detect the proximity of a finger as it gets closer to the device. This type of proximity sensing can be used to further enhance the user interface of the device in a number of ways.
