음향 센서 : 시장 점유율 분석, 산업 동향, 통계, 성장 예측(2025-2030년)

The acoustic sensors market size is valued at USD 1.23 billion in 2025 and is forecast to reach USD 1.65 billion by 2030, reflecting a 6.08% CAGR.

Miniaturized MEMS designs, on-device AI, and edge connectivity are broadening acoustic sensor use from audio capture to predictive maintenance, environmental compliance, and voice-first human-machine interaction. Consumer electronics still anchor volume growth, but industrial, automotive, and infrastructure deployments are scaling as manufacturers and cities pursue continuous condition monitoring. Regulatory noise-monitoring mandates in North America and Europe, combined with large-scale electronics production in Asia-Pacific, shape divergent regional demand patterns. Supply chain risks for piezoelectric materials and fragmented MEMS ASIC patents encourage vertical integration as firms look to secure technology ownership and cost control. Strategic acquisitions that blend sensing and edge AI point to a future in which acoustic data is processed locally for faster decision making.

Global Sound Sensors Market Trends and Insights

Proliferation of Voice-First Interfaces in Consumer IoT and Automotive Cockpits Boosting MEMS Microphone Demand

Software-defined vehicles now embed multiple MEMS microphones that enable emergency-sirens detection, cabin-noise cancellation, and driver-health sensing. Qorvo has shipped more than 20 million force-sensing units for contextual vehicle controls. Knowles' port-less vibration sensor further improves durability in harsh automotive cabins. These advances shift value from reactive audio pickup to proactive environmental awareness.

Rising Deployment of Acoustic Emission Sensors for Predictive Maintenance in Industry 4.0 Manufacturing Hubs in Asia

Manufacturers in China, Japan, and Southeast Asia increasingly install acoustic emission arrays that detect early-stage bearing faults faster than traditional vibration methods. Machine-learning models trained on sound patterns reduce unplanned downtime and deliver rapid ROI, supporting a regional market CAGR of 7.3%.

Competition from Optical and Radar-Based Sensing in Autonomous Vehicles Curtailing Acoustic Share

4D mmWave radar offers superior object detection in rain and fog, trimming demand for long-range acoustic sensors. Automakers now fuse LiDAR, radar, and cameras for robust perception. While acoustic devices retain roles in siren detection and cabin monitoring, radar's all-weather reliability limits their scope.

Other drivers and restraints analyzed in the detailed report include:

1. Expanding Offshore Wind and Sub-Sea Infrastructure Projects Elevating Hydrophone Procurement in Europe
2. Mandatory Urban Noise-Monitoring Regulations Across North America Stimulating Environmental Installations
3. High Calibration Drift of Piezoelectric Hydrophones in Deep-Water Applications Increasing Total Cost of Ownership

Segment Analysis

MEMS microphones captured 42% of 2024 revenues, driven by smartphones, smart speakers, and true wireless earbuds, solidifying their role as the volume anchor of the acoustic sensors market. Acoustic emission devices, though smaller in absolute value, lead growth at an 8.9% CAGR as factories deploy predictive maintenance systems. Piezoelectric and dynamic microphones remain vital for harsh or specialist environments where MEMS cannot yet match durability or fidelity. Surface and bulk acoustic wave filters gain traction in 5G base stations, with exceptional-point SAW prototypes reaching 2 ppm gas-detection limits. onsemi reported shipments of 200 million ultrasonic units in 2023, underscoring rising demand in automotive parking and occupant-sensing systems.

Growing diversity in sensor architectures shapes a competitive environment in which niche performance needs trump one-size-fits-all solutions. Manufacturers able to tailor sensitivity, bandwidth, and power draw secure defensible positions as end users prioritize fit-for-purpose designs. Acoustic sensors industry participants thus invest heavily in application-specific MEMS ASICs to lock in differentiation.

Consumer electronics accounted for 55% of 2024 demand, anchored by smartphones and smart speakers. Yet factory automation and asset-health monitoring are accelerating at a 7.3% CAGR as Industry 4.0 adoption spreads. Telecommunications infrastructure integrates BAW and SAW filters to meet 5G radio performance targets, while automotive applications broaden from hands-free calling to occupant-state sensing and road-noise cancellation. Healthcare shows promise in non-invasive diagnostics and patient-monitoring devices that rely on wide-band ultrasonic transducers. Environmental agencies continue to procure networked monitors as cities enforce tighter noise regulations.

As consumer margins compress, suppliers pivot toward industrial contracts with longer lifecycles and standardized qualification requirements. Bosch Sensortec's pledge that 90% of its 2030 shipments will embed AI illustrates how vendors seek to raise value capture beyond raw hardware.

Geography Analysis

North America led the acoustic sensors market with a 31% revenue share in 2024. Federal noise standards for transportation equipment and state highway projects compel widespread sensor deployments, while US and Canadian automotive sectors integrate multi-microphone arrays for cabin-safety functions. Offshore wind and deep-sea research further support hydrophone demand on both coasts.

Asia-Pacific is the fastest growing region at a 7.8% CAGR to 2030. China's national push for self-sufficiency in semiconductors fosters domestic MEMS capacity; Japan's TDK plans to double automotive sensor output by mid-2025 to meet 10% annual demand growth. India's rising smartphone production amplifies microphone volumes. Regional cost advantages and large installed bases give APAC vendors scale economies that pressure global pricing but also encourage design innovation.

Europe maintains steady expansion. Offshore wind projects in the North and Baltic Seas require sophisticated hydrophone arrays, while Germany's premium-automotive firms specify high-performance cabin-monitoring sensors. European regulators' strict noise-pollution directives keep municipal monitoring budgets stable. However, supply chain exposure to imported piezo materials and competitive pressure from Asian producers temper regional growth.
