The optical measuring market was valued at USD 2.11 billion globally in 2020 and is anticipated to grow at a 6.9% CAGR in terms of revenue during the forecast period. Growing demand for high purity grade products in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries, as well as rising usage of smart optical measurement systems, are the main factors propelling global revenue development.
The optical measurement system is a sort of electronic equipment that is used to measure the physical structure and qualities of different things. When light is reflected from an object, this system analyses its spectral distribution, intensity, polarisation, and other characteristics as well as any ultraviolet or infrared radiation. It is a non-contact measurement method that makes use of diverse light sources. A lens, a light source, and a single detector make up an optical measurement device. These devices are frequently employed in a variety of end-use applications, including automotive, aerospace and defense, energy and power, electronics manufacturing, industrial, medical, and others.
Over the forecast period, several key factors are anticipated to increase demand for optical measurement devices. These include ongoing technological advancements, rapid industrialization, growing adoption of industry 4.0, and increased use of optical metrology equipment in the manufacturing, semiconductor, and healthcare sectors.
