The global smart and intelligent sensors market is set for sustained growth over the next decade, according to a new report from Transparency Market Research. Valued at $74.4 billion in 2025, the market is projected to reach $304 billion by 2036, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.3% between 2026 and 2036.
The report links this growth to the rapid development of connected systems, automation technologies and edge computing, which are reshaping digital infrastructure worldwide. Unlike conventional sensors, intelligent sensors integrate data processing, analytics and wireless connectivity directly into the device, allowing for faster decision-making, lower latency and improved energy efficiency.
These technologies are widely used across consumer electronics, automotive systems, healthcare equipment, industrial automation, energy networks and smart city platforms. By combining sensing capabilities with embedded intelligence, they are becoming a critical component of IoT and AI-driven environments.
In 2025, North America led the global market with a 37% revenue share. Motion sensors represented the largest product segment, accounting for 32% of total market revenue.
