Sensors

This video provides an overview of the opportunities for sensors in wearable technologies.

There will be over 3 billion sensors in wearable technology devices by 2025, with more than 30% being emerging sensor types.

The printed electronics industry shows a huge interest in sensors as it seeks to forget the failures from the past.

In this article we focus on the current status of the main printed electronics technologies for components in consumer goods and healthcare applications, providing for each one market drivers, case studies and key suppliers, cost structures and challenges.

There is a new generation of sensors that are directly printed on flexible plastic substrates.

The new IDTechEx masterclass, called "Creating new products with printed electronics," will explore the needs by industry sector and appraise the technologies and timelines.
