The extensive usage of fingerprint sensors in consumer electronic devices drives market growth.
Market CAGR for optical fingerprint sensors is driven by the rising adoption of biometric systems in enterprises, which has accelerated the demand for fingerprint sensors. Tracking the time and attendance of employees has become easy with the implementation of biometric technology-based time and attendance registering systems. Fingerprint technology-based systems are easy to use and install. These systems help the management to track and analyze employee data. One of the biggest advantages of these systems is their ability to prevent employees from logging in for one another. Earlier, the methods such as a time clock, sign-in sheet, and ID card swiping were used to capture time and attendance, which were vulnerable to forgery, but the use of fingerprint sensors has drastically reduced fraud in attendance systems. The advent of technology has not only permitted fingerprint systems to capture data, but they can also be integrated into payroll and various software to calculate employee productivity, work hours, and salary based on attendance, among others. Several companies, including private and government companies, have deployed fingerprint sensors to capture attendance. Fingerprint sensors help in tracking employee time and attendance, as well as enhancing the security of the workplace. People not registered with the organization cannot enter the office premises as the fingerprint system blocks their entry.
Moreover, the increased smartphone adoption of in-display fingerprint sensors drives the Optical Fingerprint Sensor Market revenue. In-display fingerprint technology is utilized in many of today's top-of-the-line phones as it has a wide area to scan a finger, which gives the customer the best experience. The in-display fingerprint sensor operates with both wet and dry fingers, and its optical sensor is very light and does not take up much space in a phone. Also, the in-display fingerprint carries a shorter time than other fingerprint sensors to look at a finger. So, these benefits allow fingerprint sensors to be built into smartphone screens. With such usage of in-display fingerprint sensors, the market is said to enhance more with time, which is why continuous research and developments are going on in the fingerprint sensor market, creating huge opportunities for recent start-ups and manufacturers of such sensors.
Moreover, technological improvement in fingerprint sensor technologies and the development of advanced and innovative products, such as biometric payment cards, are other factors driving market revenue growth. Biometric payment cards are the same as debit or credit cards but are ultra-thin and built with a low-power optical fingerprint sensor. While using this card, consumers requirement to use their fingerprint instead of a PIN. Moreover, manufacturers are deploying advanced technologies to cope with increasing market demand. For instance, in May 2022, Fingerprint Cards AB registered 500 patents globally for its biometric sensor technology. The firm has also enhanced its portfolio beyond capacitive biometrics sensors to an optical fingerprint sensor with angled mirrors implanted in an active part of a display and touchless solutions.
The Optical Fingerprint Sensor Market segmentation, based on components, includes a photodiode, charged coupled device (CCD), CMOS optical imagers, cover plate, and lens.
