摘 要：Optical sensors are devices that convert light or infrared rays into electronic signals. They can function in the presence or absence of light or infrared spectrum and form a part of a large electronic system. A signal from an optical sensor is analyzed or interpreted in different ways to detect the presence of a person, capture an image, or determine the position or movement of an object. The global optical sensor market grew at a CAGR of 9.7% over the last five years. Vendors in the market are investing significantly in R&D of these sensors due to the following advantages.
