Mar. 22, 2007 -- GLEN ALLEN, Va. /PRNewswire/ -- NanoMarkets, a leading industry analyst firm based here today announced a new upcoming report titled, "Printed and Organic Sensor Markets: 2007-2015" that will be available in July of 2007. The report is one of five new studies added to the firm's schedule for Q2 and Q3 of 2007 that cover various aspects of the emerging thin film, organic and printed electronics sector. Details about this and other NanoMarkets reports can be found on the firm's website at http://www.nanomarkets.net/.
About the Report:
The emergence of printed and organic electronics as an industry holds considerable promise for the sensor sector. Printing can help bring down costs of sensors and may also be the ideal way for creating multi-layered sensor products such as "electronic noses." The introduction of new organic materials increases the choices available to sensor manufacturers. Finally, the ability of printed electronics to create large arrays of sensors on flexible substrates opens up possibilities for entirely new products such as sensors for biohazard detection, wearable computing or robotics. Nonetheless, printed and organic sensors are just beginning their commercial evolution.
This NanoMarkets report analyzes printed and organic sensor markets to show where such sensors can make their biggest contribution. As part of this analysis, the report assesses appropriate production technologies, system architectures and communications interfaces, as well as performance requirements and achievements for printed and organic sensors (switching speeds, sensitivity, flexibility, etc.) It also discusses important product types such as electronic noses, labs-on-a-chip, biochips and smart dust, for which organic materials and printing may make a considerable contribution.
Applications of printed and organic sensors covered in the report include smart packaging, smart textiles and uniforms, medical diagnostics, genomics and proteomics, large area sensing for security apps, water and other environmental testing, robotics and smart skins. Eight-year forecasts are provided for printed and organic sensors in each of these applications. The report also provides market projections by type of sensors, e.g. gas sensors, temperature sensors, motion sensors biosensors, etc., along with an analysis of current activities of both commercial firms and major research groups at universities and research institutes.
