The Global IoT Sensor Market was valued at USD 9.5 Bn in 2020 and is expected to reach USD 54.0 Bn by 2027, with a growing CAGR of 28.2% during the forecast period.
A sensor is a device that detects external information, replacing it with a signal that humans and machines can understand. They play an important role in developing IoT solutions. Sensors collect all the necessary information such as equipment and environment data, so they are applicable in a wide range of fields such as medical care, nursing care, agriculture, disaster prevention, industrial, logistics, transportation, tourism, and regional businesses.
The IoT sensor market is driven by various factors such as the growing use of IoT sensors in various sectors, particularly in the automotive and industrial sectors and the growing demand for smart TVs in the consumer electronics market. Furthermore, various IoT sensor applications, including sensing temperature, light, sound, pressure, and motion are considered as other driving factors influencing growth in the global market. IoT sensors are in high demand due to the rise in the use of smartphones and related devices. It is both a consequence and impetus of the cutting-edge technologies underlying the IoT solutions. For instance, in 2020, Amazon announced the availability of several new devices and provided more information on their low-power wide-area network, Sidewalk. Amidst the rush of news, Amazon's Ring security division announced a mailbox sensor. The Ring sensor uses a proprietary 900 MHz radio to connect to Ring's Wi-Fi bridge device, which then alerts a user's phone or Alexa when the sensor is triggered.

The COVID-19 outbreak and spread throughout the world has negatively impacted the IoT sensor market. Due to the spread of the virus in different parts of the world, global sales of IoT sensors declined by 10-15% in the fiscal year 2020. Among the factors that hindered the IoT sensor market measured a critical decline in the number of new industrial projects, temporary closures of production facilities, and a reduction in crude oil prices. Short-term supply chain disruptions also affected market growth in key regions such as North America and Asia Pacific regions. Due to the COVID-19, several manufacturing facilities around the world were forced to shut down temporarily. IoT sensors used in commercial applications declined further in the fiscal year 2027.
