A biometric sensor refers to a transducer that turns a biometric trait of an individual into an electrical signal. It tackles a variety of security-related concerns across multiple sectors to identify, verify, and authenticate the identification by using tools such as fingerprints, facial recognition, iris, and voice recognition.
The main types of biometric sensors are capacitive sensors, optical sensors, thermal sensors, ultrasound sensors, and electric field sensors. A capacitive sensor is an electronic device that can detect solid or liquid targets without physical contact. The different applications of biometric sensors include voice scans, finger scans, hand scans, facial scans, iris scans, vein scans, and other applications. The end-users for biometric sensors include consumer electronics, commercial centres and buildings, medical research and labs, banks and financial services sectors, defence and security, and other end-users.

The biometric sensors market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The biometric sensor market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $3 billion in 2023 to $3. 43 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14. 5%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to rising concerns about security, government initiatives and regulations, integration in consumer electronics, healthcare applications, rise of wearable devices. .
The biometric sensor market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $6. 24 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16. 1%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to emerging applications in emerging markets, focus on user-friendly and convenient authentication, hospitality and travel industry integration, education sector adoption, demand for contactless authentication. . Major trends in the forecast period include hybrid biometric solutions, smart city initiatives, transparent and explainable ai, integration in healthcare, emphasis on data privacy and security, behavioral biometrics. .
An increase in the number of identity thefts is expected to propel the growth of the biometric sensor market going forward. Identity theft is the theft of personal information, such as social security numbers, bank account numbers, or credit card numbers. Biometrics meet all of the requirements for authentication, non-repudiation, confidentiality, and integrity, which helps in reducing and eradicating identity theft. For instance, in 2021, according to the Identify Theft Resource Centre, a US-based non-profit organization, the total number of data compromises increased by 68% compared to 2020. Further, according to a report by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), a US-based consumer protection agency, the number of identity theft cases in the US more than doubled in 2020 from 2019. Therefore, an increase in the number of identity thefts is driving the biometric sensor market growth.
Increasing adoption of biometric sensors in mobile devices is expected to propel the growth of the biometric sensor market going forward. Mobile devices refer to any handheld computer or smartphone, such as tablets, smartphones, e-readers, portable music players, wearables, and smart fitness trackers, that are used to do tasks just like a desktop or laptop computer. Biometric sensors, such as in-display fingerprint sensors and facial recognition, have been heavily incorporated by mobile device manufacturers into their products, which has increased consumer demand for safe and practical identification solutions. For example, in November 2022, according to Cisco Duo's 2022 Trusted Access Report published by Cisco Systems, Inc., a US-based digital communications technology, the proportion of phones having integrated biometric features stayed at approximately 81% over the past year. Therefore, the increasing adoption of biometric sensors in mobile devices is driving the growth of the biometric sensor market.
Product innovation is a key trend gaining popularity in the biometric sensor market. Companies in the market are focusing on product innovation and enhanced security measures such as biometric-enabled cards for payments. For instance, in July 2021, Thales Group, a French aerospace company operating in the biometric sensor market, launched the Thales EMV contactless biometric payment card. The contactless biometric card simplifies proximity payments while simultaneously ensuring a high level of privacy and security. A simple and secure personal enrollment method is used to load the user's fingerprint data onto the card, which can be done at home or in a bank branch. The company is amongst the first to offer a contactless biometric card that meets all major payment scheme certification requirements.
Major companies operating in the biometrics sensor market are forming alliances with other technology companies to integrate newer technologies, such as scanners with contactless fingerprint biometric devices, to expand their presence and strengthen their market position. Strategic partnerships refer to a process in which companies leverage each other's strengths and resources to achieve mutual benefits and success. In July 2021, Integrated Biometrics (IB), a US-based FBI-certified biometric fingerprint sensor manufacturing company, signed a strategic development cooperation agreement with Sciometrics, LLC, a US-based patented object recognition technology company, to provide developers with cutting-edge touchless technology that allows them to convert smartphones into high-resolution biometric devices. The cooperation is the result of years of combined work to develop such technology and represents IB's commitment to leading the industry in fingerprint gathering technology.
In May 2022, LexisNexis Risk Solutions, a US-based software company, acquired BehavioSec for an undisclosed amount. With this acquisition, LexisNexis aims to integrate BehavioSec's sensors into device and digital identity-focused products, including ThreatMetrix and LexisNexis, by joining the Business Services division. BehavioSec is a Sweden-based advanced technology provider for behavioral biometrics and continuous authentication.
