High-End Sensors: Market Opportunities

High-end sensor devices are an increasingly significant share of the global machine sensory market that is expected to exceed 30 billion devices by 2020 with revenue of (USD) $20 billion. High-end sensors offer unique performance, size and durability benefits that have strong appeal in many commercial, aviation, defence and aerospace markets. Continuing Internet of Things (IoT) growth is also extending the potential of high-end sensor technology deeper into Industry 4.0/the IIoT and data analytics.

The inaugural HES (High-End Sensors) International Conference will examine new technologies that are cutting costs while increasing effectiveness as well as exploring product development within major high-end sensor categories and ways that both researchers and manufacturers are investigating to enhance performance, reduce power consumption, and improve efficiency.

HES International 2018 will feature industry-leading insiders delivering more than 25 presentations spanning 10 different in-depth topics including:

A full list of presentations can be found at http://www.highendsensors.net/abstracts

Who attends?

Professionals with high-end sensor interests include analysts, product marketers, researchers and product developers as well as the design and manufacturing engineers directly tied to building physical devices. All that are concerned with the issues, technologies and research that will affect the creation of advanced sensors for consumer products, security, transportation and defence systems should make this the ‘must-attend’ event for 2018.

HES International will be co-located with the eighth CS International conference (Compound Semiconductor) and our third PIC International conference (Photonic Integrated Circuits) bringing 3 groups of device makers together under one roof.

HES International 2018 is the must attend conference for the high end sensors industry - all the major players will be there, make sure you are too
