In recent years, the rapid development of the global sensor industry. In 2008, more than 3000 sensor manufacturers worldwide total sales of $ 50 billion, while the 2010 World sensors market reached $ 80 billion or more. With the rapid development of the Internet of Things, the domestic industry has also ushered in the golden sensor development. 
According to statistics, in 2015, China's Internet of Things or the overall market size will reach 750 billion yuan, the sensor industry will benefit directly. 2010, China's sensor manufacturing enterprises above designated size (annual sales income of 500 million yuan) to achieve sales revenue of 44.027 billion yuan. It is predicted that in the next five years, Chinese sensor market will be steady and rapid development, the market size of things substantial growth momentum under the 2015 Chinese sensor market is expected to reach 120 billion yuan or more. 
Prospects Industry Research Institute released the "2012-2016 China sensor manufacturing industry sales forecast demand and investment analysis report" shows that the government's support, our sensor technology and its industry has made ​​considerable progress. Domestic sensor industry in the "double-plus project" that is: to accelerate efforts to accelerate the development of policy guidance, to establish a China production base of sensitive components and sensors. Currently, there are three sensors domestic production bases, namely: "Anhui base", mainly to establish power, photosensitive economies of scale; "Shaanxi base", in February 1990 established the "Shaanxi Province sensitive technology industry group company", mainly to establish Voltage-sensitive, heat-sensitive, automotive electronics economies of scale as the main objective; "Heilongjiang base", mainly built gas, humidity economies of scale as the main target. 
At present, China has more than 1,700 engaged in the production and development of sensors enterprise, which engaged in micro-systems developed and produced more than 50, as early as the end of 2009, annual output of sensitive components and sensors has reached 2 billion, sensor products reach 10 categories, 42 subcategories, more than 6000 varieties. 
Meanwhile, sensors are increasingly being applied to social development and human life in various fields, such as industrial automation, modernization of agriculture, aerospace technology, military engineering, robotics, resource development, marine exploration, environmental monitoring, security, medical diagnostics , transportation, and household appliances. 
2010, flow sensors, pressure sensors, temperature sensors of the market's largest, respectively, accounted for 21% of the entire sensor market, 19% and 14%; pressure sensors, temperature sensors, flow sensors, level sensors have demonstrated the characteristics of a mature market ; future sensor market growth will come from the major wireless sensors, micro-system sensors, biosensors and other emerging sensors. 
Prospects sensor manufacturing industries Industry Research Institute research group, said sensor has entered people's daily work and family life, and has been in the national economy and national defense construction sectors has been widely used for the modernization of China has made ​​its due contribution. In recent years, as China's manufacturing industry began to grow as well as the rapid rise of the automobile industry, the sensors in these two sectors in the market size of over $ 10 billion. Domestic sensor market is growing at a steady growth trend forward.
