Inertial MEMS-based sensors: Technologies Trendsand Markets

摘要

The inertial sensor applications are the most active among the MEMS markets. Thisrnpresentation will analyse the future market for accelerometers and gyros. We found thatrnbetween 2002 and 2005, the compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of gyroscopes willrnexceed 25%, coming from 314 M$ to 649 M$ and the CAGR of acceleration sensor willrnreached 13%, coming from 420 M$ to 560 M$. For the first time, the markets for micrornmachined gyroscope will exceed acceleration sensor markets in 2005. Both markets arernnow dominated by automotive applications.
