Sensors are the backbone of automation systems, as they are the key to measuring and automating applications. They convert physical phenomena into measurable quantities, rendering them indispensable to our world.
As 2019 comes to a close, now’s the time to gain an understanding of what exactly happened in the industry this past year.
The market is progressing rapidly, due to the fusion of different instruments and sensor devices. Thanks to technological advancements, their use is expanding beyond their traditional fields such as mechanical and plant engineering. They are now being used for diagnostics in the medical industry, space exploration and research and much more.
In our full report, “2019 Instrumentation & Sensors Research Review,” we go in depth into the happenings of the different instrumentations and sensor markets including:
Below you’ll find quick insights into the above markets, enabling you to provide your team with vital information, inform your current projects and more.
Machine Vision (MV) Systems: Technologies and Markets
The machine vision systems market is building newer technologies to enable the systems to be more flexible and to suit specific needs. Cloud computing and data integration software is enabling the market to branch out into the computer side of MV technology and component developments.
Terahertz Radiation Systems: Technologies and Global Markets
The terahertz (THz) is the least explored and developed frequency on the electromagnetic spectrum, though that is slowly changing. Its frequency range sits between the optical on the short wavelength side and radio on the long wavelength end.
The ability of THz to penetrate a wide range of nonconducting materials gives it a unique edge that is proving quite helpful. Recent developments in THz radiation sources have opened a range of potential applications in transportation security, medical imaging, nondestructive testing and other fields, according to BCC Research analysts.
Pharmacy Automation: Technologies and Global Markets
The pharmacy automation market has been around since the 1970’s but improved technology is producing more efficient and impressive developments.
The market is split into two groups; inpatient and outpatient. In both groups, automating processes are occurring on every level, from packaging to software.
Inpatient pharmacy automation focuses on both acute-care and long-term care settings. Outpatient pharmacy automation, meanwhile, is being incorporated in fast-track clinical settings, hospital retail settings, mail order settings and retail pharmacy chains.
