Global Automobile ToF Driver IC Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032
Description
The global Automobile ToF Driver IC market size is expected to reach $ 198 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 23.0% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
ToF (Time-of-Flight) is a 3D sensing technology that calculates the distance and depth between objects by measuring the time of flight of light. It is a technology that recognizes the three-dimensional effect, spatial information and motion of an object by calculating the distance to the object after measuring the time of the reflected signal by sending infrared wavelengths to the object, so it is applied to Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR).
The automobile ToF driver IC is a core control chip dedicated to the vehicle-mounted time-of-flight (ToF) system, responsible for converting digital signals into high-precision electrical pulses to drive the laser emitter (VCSEL/EEL). It is mainly used in two scenarios: long-distance target detection in LiDAR and low-power 3D imaging in cabin monitoring (DMS/gesture recognition). It is the "light pulse engine" of the intelligent car perception system.
The automobile ToF driver IC market is growing rapidly driven by both autonomous driving and in-cabin intelligence. As the core sensor for L3+ autonomous driving, LiDAR drives the demand for high-power driver ICs, with technical barriers concentrated on GaN/SiC processes and automotive-grade reliability (AEC-Q100). In-cabin ToF cameras are required to be installed due to safety regulations (such as DMS), which promotes the popularization of medium and low-power driver ICs. International manufacturers dominate the high-end market (Infineon's LiDAR driver ICs, ams and OSRAM's in-cabin solutions), and Chinese manufacturers are accelerating local substitution. Future competition will focus on high power, narrow pulse width, and low cost, and the process of domestic substitution will continue to accelerate. Europe is the world's largest market with over 50% market share, followed by Asia-Pacific and North America with nearly 25% and 15% respectively.
