South America Acoustic Wave Sensor Market by Sensing Parameter (Temperature, Pressure, Mass, Torque, Humidity, Viscosity, Chemical Vapor), by Application, by Geography (Brazil, Rest of South America) - Analysis & Forecast To 2019

Acoustic wave (AW) devices are adopted across a wide range of industry verticals, such as industrial manufacturing, automotive, consumer electronics, military, and healthcare, wherein they are currently used as resonators, filters, sensors, and actuators. An acoustic wave sensor uses a piezoelectric material to generate the acoustic wave. These sensors provide competitive advantage over conventional sensors, due to its features such as wireless and passive operation, and lesser response time.

When the acoustic wave transmits through or on the surface of a material, any change related to the characteristics of the transmission path affects the velocity and/or amplitude of the wave. Variations in the velocity are monitored by measuring the frequency or phase characteristics of the sensor, and are correlated to the corresponding physical quantity being measured.

By geography, this market is segmented into Brazil and Rest of South America (RoSA). On the basis of sensing parameters, the market is classified into temperature sensing, pressure sensing, mass sensing, torque sensing, humidity sensing, viscosity sensing, and chemical vapor sensing among others. Among all industry verticals, the industrial sector covers 50.6% of the South America acoustic wave sensor market.
