It is anticipated that the growing application of printed sensors in wearable medical devices and consumer electronics is a key driver in the market. In recent years, printed sensors have gained huge attention from researchers, owing to their significant potential for wearable electronics and IoT applications. Further, the adoption of printed sensors in device-engineering technologies has resulted in the creation of foldable, light, and flexible sensors.
Printed sensors are widely gaining adoption as they eliminate the use of silicon and metal oxides that are harmful in nature. Instead, with the help of innovative printing technologies, the printed sensors are manufactured over various flexible substrates like paper, plastic, rubber-like polymers, and foils, which render printed sensors to be thin and light with high flexibility for mechanical purposes. This factor is highly driving the printed sensors industry.
The introduction of printed sensors has governed the portability of the product, which has resulted in increased sales of printed sensors in the medical sector. Moreover, it is also projected that some significant opportunities in the future for printed sensors are the growing trends for touch-enabled electronic devices and IoT, augmenting the sales of printed sensors globally.
An important factor driving the sales of printed sensors is the declining prices as printed sensors are becoming compatible with diversified application areas such as packaging, consumer electronics, and more, leveraging printed sensors technology at a low cost. Additionally, the rising demand for printed electronic devices corresponds to the growth of the printed sensors industry as well.
It is anticipated that certain prevailing factors might hinder the demand for printed sensors in the upcoming years, besides the numerous growth factors. Further, the printed sensors have a very complex manufacturing process, and this acts as a key restraint for small and medium-sized companies, limiting the research and development capabilities of these firms.
There are also challenges involved with conductive ink printing and insufficient technological accessibility, such as organic light-emitting diode displays. In addition to that, another challenge faced by the printed sensors industry is that it is still in its development stage.
Enabling technologies like ultra-thin chip technology is expected to address the existing bottlenecks in microelectronics, such as 3D integration, which in turn can open up new opportunities for the growth of the demand for printed sensors in the market.
