The sensor hub market is expected to reach USD 32.53 Billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 18.9% between 2017 and 2023. The growth of this market is propelled by the steady growth in the number of integrated sensors in smartphones, the need for a low-power solution, and the use of sensor fusion in devices.

The discrete sensor processor dominated the sensor hub market in 2016. This dominance is attributed to the use of discrete sensor processor hubs in wearable devices as well as the higher power saving advantages offered by this processor type. The application sensor processor is expected to hold the largest size of the sensor hub market during the forecast period as it is being deployed by a large number of smartphone manufacturers such as Apple, Inc. (US).

The consumer electronics end-use application is the largest market for sensor hubs. This growth is attributed to the extensive use of sensor hubs in smartphones, tablets, smart TVs, wearables, and gaming consoles. All these devices use sensors for different activities such as gesture recognition, image stabilization, navigation, motion-based gaming, and health monitoring.
