One of the major factors fuelling the rise in the demand for vision sensors is the surging packaging industry across the world, especially in the emerging economies such as India and China. For instance, as per The Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI), the plastic packaging industry in India recorded a CAGR of more than 14.0% during 2010–2017. In addition to this, the soaring pharmaceutical and food packaging industries and rising number of exports requiring superior packaging quality are significantly contributing toward the growth in the demand for vision sensors.
The burgeoning demand for vision sensors from the automotive industry is another important factor pushing the demand for these sensors across the globe. In automotive industry, vision sensors are required for identification, localization, and inspection applications. Moreover, the escalating vehicle production and increasing automobile manufacturing activities in several countries around the world, such as Thailand and Indonesia are boosting the need for vision sensors, especially for use in the various automobile manufacturing processes.
