In the modern world, the need for pressure sensors is evolving and continuously growing. Today’s
pressure sensors mainly utilize digital technology; which means they are better in efficiency and sensing
performance. Pressure sensors have a significant place in different industry verticals. The major
applications of pressure sensors are in petrochemical industry, automotive industry, consumer electronics
industry, process industries, and healthcare. The largest application segment for pressure sensors is the
automotive segment due to their (automotives’) use in tyre pressure monitoring systems, engine
management, and automatic transmission. The petrochemical and oil and gas segment follows as the
second largest application segment for pressure sensors. In the medical industry, pressure sensors are
used as low-cost disposable devices for catheters employed in surgical operations. The demand for
reliable, high performance and low cost sensors is increasing, leading to the development of new
technologies like the Micro Technology and Nano Technology offering opportunities like miniaturization,
low power consumption, mass production, etc. MEMS pressure sensors have not been used much in the
consumer electronics and mobile devices until now. Their major applications include HVAC sector, level
measurements and various industrial processes and control applications.
Pressure sensors can vary drastically in technology, design, performance, application suitability and cost.
A conservative estimate would be that there may be over 50 technologies and at least 300 companies
making pressure sensors worldwide.
