The market for biomedical sensors is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 6.9% from 2020 to 2027 and expected to reach the market value of around US$ 18.1 Bn by 2027.

Biomedical Sensors are the tools that detect & monitor specific biological, chemical, or physical properties. Biomedical Sensors are often used to monitor the safety of medicines, food, environmental conditions, and other substances. These are for biomedical and clinical applications by using photosensitive polyurethane encapsulant formulations microstructured by photolithography. These are special types of sensors that provide the necessary interface between the electronics systems and the biological environment. The operations carried out under strict requirements of high compatibility with the hosting environment, lightweight, high reliability, long-expected lifetime, and adorability.

Market Dynamics
