Color Detection Sensor Global Market Report 2025
A color detection sensor is a type of photoelectric sensor that utilizes a transmitter to emit light and a receiver to capture the light reflected from the object being detected. These sensors are specifically designed to identify and differentiate colors in the surrounding environment. The operation involves emitting light onto an object, measuring the reflected light, and analyzing the wavelengths to determine the color of the object.
The main types of color detection sensors include brightness sensors, contrast sensors, molecular luminescence sensors, red, green, and blue (RGB) sensors, printed mark sensors, and others. Brightness sensors are electronic devices designed to measure ambient light levels or brightness in a given environment. They find applications in various industries such as chemicals, life sciences, food and beverages, cosmetics, wood and paper processing, packaging, textiles, and more. Color detection sensors are utilized by different end-user industries, including healthcare, printing, consumer electronics, lighting and signage, industrial automation, fluid analysis, among others.

This color detection sensor market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenario of the industry.
The color detection sensor market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $2 billion in 2024 to $2.17 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to increasing automation in industries, quality control and inspection needs, rising demand for consumer electronics, automotive manufacturing requirements, food and beverage industry standards.
The color detection sensor market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.82 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.9%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising adoption of internet of things (iot), demand for enhanced security and authentication, growth in cosmetic and textile industries, environmental monitoring requirements, emergence of smart cities and infrastructure. Major trends in the forecast period include integration of artificial intelligence (ai) for color analysis, increasing demand for miniaturized color sensors, adoption of smart color detection systems, expansion of applications in agriculture and food industry, development of multispectral imaging solutions, integration of color sensors in medical devices.
The anticipated surge in demand for consumer electronics is poised to drive the growth of the color detection sensor market in the coming years. Consumer electronics encompass a wide range of electronic devices designed for daily, personal, or professional use by end consumers. Color detection sensors play a crucial role in consumer electronics by adjusting backlight brightness based on ambient light, contributing to enhanced user experiences and prolonged battery life. As of May 2023, the Japan Electronics and Information Technology Industries Association reported a notable increase in consumer electronics production, reaching $2,178,430 million compared to $1,714,724 million in May 2022. Additionally, LG's annual financial report for 2022 highlighted record-breaking revenues, exceeding $60 billion, driven by a 12.9% growth from the previous year. The Home Appliance & Air Solution Company at LG recorded $22.5 billion in revenue, marking a 10.3% increase. Consequently, the growing demand for consumer electronics is a key driver of the color detection sensor market.
The proliferation of smartphones is expected to contribute significantly to the growth of the color detection sensor market. Smartphones, handheld electronic devices connected to cellular networks, rely on color detection sensors for accurate color reproduction in displays and improved camera performance. This ensures vibrant and true-to-life visuals for users. In February 2023, Uswitch Limited reported a 3.8% increase in total mobile connections in the UK from 2021 to 2022, totaling 71.8 million mobile connections. Moreover, an estimated 68.3 million people in the UK, around 95% of the population, are projected to own smartphones by 2025. Thus, the rising prevalence of smartphones is a significant driver for the color detection sensor market.
Major companies in the color detection sensor market are prioritizing the introduction of sensors with fully integrated optical assemblies. An integrated optical assembly is a critical component responsible for detecting changes in light and producing digital values. In September 2022, OSRAM Licht AG launched the TCS3530, an ultra-sensitive color sensor featuring a fully integrated optical component. This innovation streamlines production processes for smartphones, cameras, and displays by eliminating the need for external diffusers. The device is designed for applications requiring precise color detection, offering true color XYZ ambient light detection and flicker detection up to 7 kHz.
In February 2024, Chenghe Acquisition Corp., a Singapore-based special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) focused on identifying and merging with promising businesses, successfully completed its business combination with Taiwan Color Optics, which is headquartered in Taiwan. Taiwan Color Optics specializes in providing components and solutions for LiDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) and ADB (Adaptive Driving Beam) technologies. This merger is intended to enhance capabilities in optical 3D sensing technology, particularly for applications such as LiDAR sensors and smart headlights, thereby strengthening the positions of both companies in the rapidly evolving sensor market.
