/PRNewswire/ --

According to a new market report published by Transparency Market Research

(http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com)

"Image Sensors

Market - The U.S. Industry Analysis Market Share, Trends and

Forecast, 2011 - 2017,"

the U.S. image sensors market was worth

USD 2.0

billion

in 2011 and is forecasted to reach

USD 3.7 billion

in 2017 at a CAGR of

11.1% from 2011 to 2017. The Linear image sensors segment accounted for

the largest share - i.e. 84.2% - of the U.S. image sensors market at

USD 1.7

billion

in 2011. The X-ray image sensors market segment will have the fastest

revenue growth at a CAGR of 18.8% during 2011 - 2017. The U.S. CMOS image

sensor shipment reached 464.0 million units in 2011 registering a growth of

27.6% over 2010.

Image sensors are broadly categorized under CCD image sensors (area image

sensor), linear image sensors and X-ray image sensors. Linear image sensors

are further segmented into CMOS image sensors, NMOS image sensors and

InGaAs image sensors. The linear image sensors command the largest share of

shipment and revenue, largely due to CMOS image sensors, which accounts for

more than 90% of the linear image sensor market.

Growing technological advancement and faster adoption of new generation of

mobile technology has spurred the demand for high resolution imaging

technology. With nationwide mobile penetration inching towards 100%, mobile

phone manufacturers are introducing a new array of imaging-enabled

products. Current differentiators for imaging in mobile technology are low cost,

low power, high performance and small size. Increasing integration and low

power operation has opened new application segments for image sensors.

CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) image sensors facilitate

large scale integration and can enable a single chip to accommodate all

camera functions, which eliminates the need for additional support packaging

and assembly; thus lowering cost. Market players are progressively providing

higher levels of integration by incorporating DSPs (digital signal processing), as

well as ISPs (integrated signal processing). Other ground-breaking features

such as multiple color filters that allow JPEG images conversion on the sensor

are also supporting the market growth.

Continuously growing different varieties and forms of sensors used in handsets,

tablets and motion-based image sensors applications are becoming more

sophisticated and elegant; moving further than screen rotation. The blending of

signals of various sensors is facilitating the faster, smoother and precise

description of motion in mobile devices. This accuracy is well-matched for novel

applications including gaming, augmented reality and motion-based web

browsing.

Image sensor prices have shown a downward trend over the last few years and

are expected to have a similar trend over the next few years. The average

selling price per unit of overall image sensors in the U.S. stood at

USD 3.9

in

2011. Average cost per unit for CMOS image sensors in the same year was

USD

3.5

whereas average cost of CCD image sensors was

USD 8.3

per unit.
