Description

According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global SPAD based Sensor market size was valued at US$ 1051 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 2832 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 14.7% during review period.

SPAD based sensors refer to sensors based on SPAD arrays. At present, the main products on the market are dToF sensors based on SPAD arrays. The D-ToF method detects the distance between an object by emitting short pulses of light and measuring the time required for the emitted light to return. This method can be used to measure the distance of objects tens or hundreds of meters away, but requires the use of single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) components with ultra-high efficiency characteristics.

Global key players of SPAD based Sensor include STMicroelectronics, ams OSRAM and Sony, etc. The top three players hold a share over 90%. Asia-Pacific is the largest market, has a share about 67%. In terms of product type, 3D dToF Sensor is the largest segment, occupied for a share of about 94%, and in terms of application, Consumer Electronics has a share about 87 percent.
