Infrared detectors are transducers of radiant energy that converts the radiation of the objects in the infrared range to a measurable form. In other words, an infrared detector is a detector which reacts to infrared radiation. Large scale adoption of the IR detectors in the latest range of the applications such as consumer electronics and smart homes are driving the overall market. The use of IR detectors in temperature measurement and spectroscopy applications is expected to increase in future.

IR detectors are successfully changing conventional methods into modern techniques. Initially, they were developed for military and defense applications, specially catering to the defense market. Since then, the uncooled infrared (IR) detectors have penetrated various applications like people and motion detection, temperature measurement, fire and gas detection, and bio medical imaging. Over the last ten years, the commercial applications have grown significantly as a result of improved detector capabilities of uncooled IR detectors. The people and motion sensing, temperature measurement, fire & gas detection, and spectroscopy applications are likely to remain the strategic market for the IR detector market and it is expected that many companies will be fighting for a larger share of this market.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the Asia-Pacific market for IR detectors. This report includes revenue forecasts, market trends, and opportunities for the period from 2014 to 2019 and the overview of the competitive landscape for the period from 2011 to 2014. The analysis has been conducted on the various market segments derived on the basis of technologies, spectral ranges, and geographies. On the basis of technologies, the market is segmented into MCT, InGaAs, pyroelectric, thermopiles, and microbolometers, and on the basis of spectral ranges, the market is segmented into SWIR, MWIR, and LWIR. The geographical analysis includes the countries of China, Japan, and Taiwan. The report also includes the key market drivers and inhibitors, along with their detailed impact.
