The global CMOS and sCMOS image sensor market is largely driven by the growing demand for small high-definition cameras and smartphones, advances in digital technology, and increasing consumer concern for safety and surveillance. In addition, the increasing investment of major industry participants in technological innovation research and development activities has promoted market growth. By their responsible efforts and attempts, they ensure that they continuously provide innovation for consumption types long before consumers realize its necessity. At the same time, consumers appreciate the benefits of these innovations and have increased sales of cameras equipped with CMOS and sCMOS image sensors, further ensuring the attractiveness of market growth. In addition, factors such as technological advancements, increased disposable income, and economic growth in developing economies in the Asia Pacific region have largely driven market growth.
The CMOS and sCMOS image sensor markets are mainly used for scientific cameras. Due to the improved performance of CMOS and sCMOS image sensors in terms of speed, field of view, dynamic range, and image quality, scientific sCMOS cameras have rapidly become popular in the fields of biology, materials science, and astronomy. However, due to fluctuations in pixel quality, sCMOS cameras generate more noise than other cameras, limiting their use in biological research.
