Image sensor is the heart of any imaging device that converts the optical information into electrical signals. Right from their inception in 1960s, image sensors have gone through numerous technological advancements due to the continuous demand in the market for higher resolution, smaller form factor, and lower power consumption. CMOS sensors, which lost their popularity to CCD sensors in the 1970s, have re-emerged as a more feasible device due to the improvement in their fabrication technology and the ever-increasing pressure of power consumption reduction in battery-operated devices.

The report is aimed at identifying the entire market for image sensors for various applications; namely medical, automotive, defense and aerospace, commercial, consumer, surveillance, and industrial along with different technologies and regional trends. The report covers the overall market and sub-segments through extensively detailed classifications, in terms of revenue, ASPs, and shipments.

The market is divided as per three basic parameters: technology, application, and geography. Given below is the detailed explanation of each segment:

By Technology:

Three types of technologies are considered for the analysis: CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor), CCD (Charge Coupled Device), and Contact Image Sensors. The products have also been segmented based on their different types of manufacturing processes into FSI (Front Side Illumination) and BSI (back Side Illumination). Finally, the image sensors have been segmented on the basis of their operating spectrum into Visible, Infrared, and X-Ray. Quantitative data containing revenue, shipments, and ASPs for each of the product type is given in the report.

By Application:
