Now is the information age, and instruments have penetrated into the fields
of industrial production, resource survey, marine exploration, environmental
protection, medical diagnosis, and biological engineering. The effective
measurement and conversion of the original information by the instrument makes
it irreplaceable for its role and role in the development of contemporary
society. With the continuous development of science and technology, various
instruments are becoming one of the important frontier technologies that change
human life.
Laser rangefinders can meet the individual needs of customers and form a series of high-tech products. With the continuous efforts of domestic enterprises, China will change the pattern of the world's laser instrument industry!
Wearable devices are becoming highly integrated.
More and more sensing elements are embedded in wearable devices. Semiconductor factories have begun to use more advanced micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) technology and packaging technology to create multi-functional, highly integrated, small-size and low-power instrument solutions to meet the design requirements of equipment developers.
The market demand for high-resolution imagers is increasing.
CMOS (Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor) imagers are used in smart phones and digital cameras, and the demand for high-pixel products is gradually expanding. Competitive sales of various smart phone companies are increasing, and the performance of cameras equipped with smart phones is also improving. Ordinary smartphones are equipped with front and rear cameras. The rear camera uses a large pixel imager.
The application of the imager is diverse.
The book "Instrument" mentioned that the main change in this century is to connect the material world through the network, give it an electronic nervous system, let it perceive information life, and provide the core of this important task is the instrument. This passage perfectly illustrates the main changes brought about by the instrument. There is no doubt that various instruments will be better utilized in breadth and depth, and will profoundly change people's lifestyles.
It is estimated that the total revenue of the image sensing market in 2015 was 12 billion U.S. dollars, and some market research estimates that it will increase by 16 billion U.S. dollars by 2020. The application of infrared in the non-optical image sensing market is also growing rapidly. In 2014, the thermal imaging-related instrument market reached US$4 billion. It is estimated that the annual growth rate will exceed 20% in the next few years. Even mobile phones and tablets will begin to increase thermal imaging capabilities.
At present, with the continuous maturity of technology, the instrument industry is also showing a trend of rapid development. At present, the instrument industry has the characteristics of highly integrated wearable devices, diversified imager applications, and increased market demand for high-pixel imagers. Laser rangefinders are also promising in the future.
