Sensor fusion involves the amalgamation of input gathered from diverse sensors to reduce the level of uncertainty inherent in automated machine navigation or task execution. Its role is crucial in compensating for imprecisions or gaps in knowledge pertaining to specific environmental factors.
The primary categories of sensor fusion encompass radar sensors, image sensors, inertial measurement units (IMUs), temperature sensors, and others. Radar sensors function as conversion tools, translating microwave echo signals into electrical signals. Sensor fusion enhances radar sensors by incorporating data from various sensors such as cameras or lidar, thereby improving the accuracy of object detection and tracking. This enhancement contributes to more dependable situational awareness across diverse applications. Sensor fusion technologies include micro-electric mechanical systems (MEMS), non-micro-electric mechanical systems (MEMS), and others applied in smartphones, tablets, TV remotes, cameras, video games, and more. End users of sensor fusion technology span across consumer electronics, automotive, home automation, medical, military, and industrial sectors.

The sensor fusion market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $5.55 billion in 2023 to $6.63 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19.4%. The growth observed in the historical period can be ascribed to the miniaturization of sensors, the widespread proliferation of mobile devices, adherence to automotive safety regulations, applications in defense and aerospace industries, and the integration of sensors in industrial automation.
The sensor fusion market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $12.8 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.9%. The projected growth in the forecast period can be linked to initiatives related to the Internet of Things (IoT) and smart cities, the evolution of consumer electronics, advancements in medical imaging and healthcare, concerns about energy efficiency, the expansion of wearable health tech, and the provision of cloud-based sensor fusion services. Key trends anticipated in the forecast period encompass the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning, advancements in robotics, applications of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR), as well as the adoption of environmentally sustainable solutions.
The anticipated increase in the adoption of electric vehicles is poised to drive the growth of the sensor fusion market in the foreseeable future. Electric vehicles, powered by an electric motor drawing energy from an externally charged battery, rely on sensor fusion for critical functions, safety, energy efficiency, and autonomous capabilities. This makes sensor fusion a vital component in the evolving automotive industry. For instance, data from the International Energy Agency in September 2022 revealed a doubling of electric vehicle sales to 6.6 million in 2021 compared to 2020, resulting in a total of 16.5 million electric vehicles on the road. Consequently, the growing penetration of electric vehicles is a driving force behind the expansion of the sensor fusion market.
The increasing adoption of 5G technology is expected to propel the growth of the sensor fusion market. 5G, the fifth generation of wireless technology, offers faster data speeds, lower latency, and enhanced connectivity for various devices and applications. Sensor fusion is integral to 5G technology, amalgamating data from multiple sensors to improve accuracy, efficiency, and real-time responsiveness across diverse applications, from autonomous vehicles to smart cities. According to a June 2022 report by Ericsson, it is projected that there will be 4.4 billion 5G subscriptions, representing approximately 48% of the global mobile subscription base by the end of 2027. Hence, the rising adoption of 5G technology is a significant driver for the sensor fusion market.
Technological advancements emerge as a prominent trend gaining traction in the sensor fusion market. Key companies in this sector are leveraging advanced technologies to maintain their market positions.
