Infrared Detector Market by - Global Forecast to 2020

“Infrared detector market expected to be driven by people and motion sensing application”
The infrared detector market is expected to reach USD 405.2 million by 2020, growing at a CAGR of 9.83% between 2015 and 2020. The increasing use of IR detectors in places such as airports, museums, retail shops, and libraries for counting people and for motion detection would drive the infrared detector market. Similarly, the growing awareness of IR detectors in the manufacturing and industrial application, increasing demand for uncooled infrared technology, and wide acceptance of IR detectors in different applications would drive the market.

“Thermophile infrared detectors expected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2015 and 2020”
The market for thermophile infrared detectors is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Thermophile detectors are widely used for the people and motion sensing application which would drive the market.

“Long-wave infrared radar expected to hold the largest market share and witness rapid growth during the forecast period”

Long-wave infrared radar accounted for the largest share of the infrared detector market in 2014 and is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. This growth is mainly attributed to the increased demand for long-wave infrared detectors in military, surveillance, security, military and defense, industrial, and automotive applications.
