(MENAFNEditorial) iCrowdNewswire - Dec 11, 2017 Global is expected to experience a lucrative growth owing to the increasing usage of touch screen devices and rapid technological advancement. The capacitive sensing technology particularly uses capacitance of human body as an input and is based on capacitive coupling. Capacitive sensors detect the capacitance of any material to be sensed and accordingly it functions. When the threshold amount of capacitance is reached the sensor is automatically switched on. Reduction in the size of the sensors and limited calibration are expected to be the key factors fuelling the growth of the market.
In different industry verticals, different capacitive sensing applications are used. The non-consumer electronics sector segmentation includes factory and commercial automation industry. Capacitive sensors are piercing in the market of position sensors, flow sensors, and level sensors. Non-glass capacitive sensors market is expected to be mainly driven by the rising electronics industry across the world. Capacitive sensors are extensively used in different touch-screen devices as a substitute to mechanical keypads. The electronic applications of non-glass capacitive sensors include mouse touch-pads, smartphone and tablets. Increasing demand for touch screen based electronic devices, non-glass capacitive sensors are likely to witness high demand over the forecast period. Moreover, non-glass capacitive sensors have an edge over the conventional touch detection techniques including resistive and inductive detection. Non-glass capacitive sensors cost low when compared to the conventional touch detection techniques and need low power for operation. In addition, non-glass capacitive sensors have longer life cycle and provide high speed along with stability. Non-glass capacitive sensors are known to have the ability of detecting motion, acceleration and flow apart from detection of materials. However, the market is expected to face major challenges while the fabrication and manufacturing process of these sensors.

The major usage of capacitive sensors is for level monitoring different objects and contactless detection. These sensors can be used to detect various materials including powders, solids, pellets and liquids by using a non-metallic container wall as a medium. capacitive sensors are capable of detecting metallic as well as non-metallic materials unlike inductive sensors. Applications of capacitive sensors are recognition of surfaces including food, wood, paper, glass, chemical and plastic substances. Capacitive sensors are used in packaging systems to monitor and to detect the presence of cardboard boxes and its level. Non glass capacitive sensors are the ones which are used to detect non-glass materials. Non glass capacitive sensors use different polymer materials namely, indium tin oxide (ITO) films materials for detection.
The major advancement in the market includes the introduction of projected capacitive technology which depends on capacitive sensing which detects the capacitance change in indium tin oxide (ITO) contacts on indium tin oxide glass to detect motion trajectory and touch positions when the screen is touched by the user of the equipment. Projected capacitive touch technology is expected to have an edge over traditional capacitive sensor on account of multi-touch capability, superior optics and extreme durability.
Segmentation based on the type of non-glass materials, applications and geographic regions. The non-glass surface type segment classification includes different types of materials including sapphires, polymers, and other plastic materials. The market segmentation on the basis of applications include consumer and commercial applications. Consumer applications of non-glass capacitive sensors include touch-screen devices including photocopy machines, tablets, smartphones and mouse touch-pads.
