This Report:

The global market for microsensors will increase from $2.7 billion in 2007 to an estimated $3.2 billion by the end of 2008. It should reach $8.4 billion by 2013, a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.3%.
Microelectromechanical systems accounted for the bulk (82.8%) of the microsensor market in 2007; this is expected to decline to 76.5% in 2013.
Biochips’ market share is expected to increase from 17.2% in 2007 to 21.6% in 2013.
