The ambient air pressure sensor technology has been tested in the market for a long time, and the new manufacturing process can realize sensors with smaller size, lower power consumption and better selectivity. This provides an opportunity for the environmental monitoring industry to integrate advanced ambient air pressure sensors into more low-cost devices and daily consumer electronic products (such as smart phones and wearable devices). In the future, various gas detection principles will be used to detect and evaluate multiple pollutants in the environment.

At the same time,ambient air pressure sensorswill play a key role in the development of the Internet of Things, and will be widely used in fields such as smart homes and smart cities. Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, air purifiers, smart windows, and other applications will use ambient air pressure sensors to improve people's quality of life. The market for ambient air pressure sensors used in smart home and smart city applications is expected to continue to grow rapidly.

In this report, the well-known British research institution IDTechEx provides a ten-year forecast of the global ambient air pressure sensormarket from 2020 to 2030. The air pollutants studied in the report include volatile organic compounds (VOC), formaldehyde, ozone (O3), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx). In some areas, the concentrations of many pollutants are similar. Therefore, environmental gas monitoring applications have greater demand for selective environmental pressure sensors. As people’s awareness and concern about smog increases, another focus in the field of environmental gas monitoring will be micro-particle pollutants.

Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and screen printing technology have opened the door to the miniaturization of ambient air pressure sensors, enabling these miniaturized ambient air pressure sensors to be integrated into consumer electronic products such as smart phones and wearable devices. IDTechEx predicts that the application of these miniature sensors will grow rapidly and become popular in our daily lives. This report focuses on the technological innovation of advanced miniature environmental pressure sensors used in major emerging markets.
