DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Smart Sensor Market for Aerospace: By Technology Type; By Geography - Forecast 2016-2022" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
A smart sensor is a platform of various capabilities such as signal amplification and conditioning, analog-to-digital conversion, microcomputers, data storage devices, and bus communication. A smart sensor platform is used for predictive maintenance and instrumentation and to monitor and communicate the condition of key parameters more efficiently, such as equipment vibration. A generic smart sensor platform supports the interface between different hardware and a communication need of multiple positions and inertial sensors, with the help of point-to-point technologies such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth or RFID.
In the aerospace domain, smart sensors can be employed for applications such as monitoring cracks, strain, vibrations, pressure, and temperature. In addition, for the above purposes, smart sensors need to monitor rotating machinery, aircraft wings, fuselage, stabilizer, slats, flats, spoilers, elevator, rudder, cockpit, and engines. The rate of Innovation for smart sensor in aerospace is high, which means technology is not fully developed and still needs improvement in terms of efficiency.
Approximately 53% of aircraft are made of a composite structure; therefore, a smart sensing platform is needed that can be embedded with the multifunctional composite material for life cycle management, i.e., monitoring the composite material from its quality process to its manufacturing process, where the smart sensing platform can sense current damage and state of the structure and predict the damage propagation during the life cycle
Market Dynamics:
At present, large investments are being made to implement smart sensing features in aircraft. The emergence of smart sensors embedded in the aircraft structure will be evident worldwide in the next 5 to 10 years. Regions such as North America and Europe are heavily involved in a similar transformation.
The future of smart sensing technologies in aircraft is promising, and the technologies will soon start to capture a market share. The concept of a bio-inspired intelligent sensor network may seem to pose challenges for realization; however, changes are expected to occur in the next 5 to 10 years.
