Global Sensor Hub Market Definition

A sensor hub refers to a microcontroller unit or a coprocessor or DSP that assimilates data from different sensors and processes them. This reduces the workload that is performed by another device or CPU (central processing unit). It offers various benefits such as increased performance coupled with the saving of battery consumption. A sensor hub uses sensor fusion to turn raw sensor data into meaningful context. Sensor hubs are an idea that evolved from mobile devices that sensor fusion might be done on a secondary, lower-power microprocessor to save power on the main processor.

By freeing up processor bandwidth for other operations, you can improve power management without sacrificing performance. Based on processor type there are different types of the sensor hub such as Application Sensor Processor, Discrete Sensor Processor, Sensor Integrated Microcontroller, and Others. Discrete Sensor Processor is utilized primarily in areas of the audio signal, speech processing, RADAR, seismology, audio, SONAR, voice recognition, and some financial signals. For instance, Digital Signal Processing is utilized for speech compression for mobile phones, as well as speech transmission for mobile phones.

Global Sensor Hub Market Overview

The growing adoption of advanced driver-assistance systems coupled with the rising awareness for the driver's safety is likely to drive the growth of the market. The growing demand for smartphones with integrated sensors is propelling the global Sensor Hub Market forward. Contextual and algorithmic awareness, as well as power management, are all provided by the sensor hub. Sensor hubs are in high demand as the need for smart devices with longer battery life increases. The growing awareness among the consumers and the increasing demand for the low power generating solution is fueling the growth of the market over the forecast period. The Sensor Hub Market is expected to grow owing to the rising need for low power generating solutions for a variety of mobile & wearable devices.

There is a growing need for low-power mobile devices that can function for extended periods of time without rapidly draining the battery. A sensor hub is being included in a variety of mobile manufacturing companies' devices. The sensor hub continuously collects sensor data when the main CPU is inactive, extending the life of a mobile device's battery. For example, Google launched the Android sensor hub which can be hooked directly into a phone's sensors. Data from the gyroscope, fingerprint reader, accelerometer, and many other sensors can funnel into the small-scale processor running Google's custom algorithms. This enables the Sensor Hub to interpret gestures and activities independently and can significantly extend battery life by consuming very little power.

QuickLogic Corporation also unveiled the S1 Wearable sensor hub, a context-aware and ultra-low-power sensor hub designed for next-generation advanced wearable applications. It may be used as a pedometer, with distinct step counts for walking and running, and it uses less power. However, the technical complexity of deploying a sensor hub is a factor limiting the growth of the sensors hub industry. Owing to the complexity of the technology, advanced level knowledge is required for the successful and efficient implementation of the sensor hub in a smartphone or wearable device. Furthermore, the growing popularity of wearable devices and the increasing use of smart equipment are factors that might provide high revenue opportunities for players in the target market. Furthermore, increased demand for various types of electronic equipment in emerging nations is likely to boost global market growth.
