Printed and organic sensor market to reach $2.3 billion

Wednesday, 26 September, 2007

The market for printed and organic sensors will reach $2.3 billion by 2015, according to a study by NanoMarkets LC. The report is the next in the firm's ongoing coverage of thin film, organic and printed electronics.

According to NanoMarkets, sensors represent an especially attractive opportunity for printed and organic electronics firms because unlike displays and RFIDs, printed and organic sensors are areas relatively underserved by existing manufacturers.

In addition to their attractive price points, printed and organic sensors manufactured on flexible substrates provide the means for new markets to be developed in medical, architecture and construction, protective clothing, smart labels and packaging, robotics, aerospace, national defence and automotive applications.
