The occupancy sensor market was valued at USD 2.2 billion in 2019 and is projected to reach USD 3.6 billion by 2025; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 13.3% from 2020 to 2025. Occupancy sensors are widely used in applications such as lighting, HVAC, and security and surveillance systems. They are now being integrated into consumer electronics such as PC.
Occupancy sensors are based on primarily 3 types of technologies—passive infrared, ultrasonic, and dual technology, which is a combination of passive infrared and ultrasonic. There are also other emerging types of occupancy sensors, including Doppler sensor, which is similar to radar sensors, RF sensors, and microwave-based occupancy sensor.

Based on Applications, the lighting systems segment to dominate the occupancy sensor market in the year 2020
The occupancy sensor market for lighting control applications is expected to grow at the CAGR of 10.9% from 2020 to 2025. Lighting systems are the most crucial application because it represents a substantial portion of energy expenses in all types of buildings, including commercial and residential. For instance, lighting systems in any commercial building contribute nearly 38 to 40% of the monthly electricity bill. However, approximately 70% of savings can be expected with the installation of occupancy sensors
The APAC region expected to be the second largest market for occupancy sensor in 2025
Increased construction activity in APAC has significantly contributed to the growth of the occupancy sensor market. New opportunities for smart lighting, occupancy sensors, and home automation are expected in APAC on the back of strong activity in the smart home space in China, Japan, South Korea, and India. The occupancy sensor market has huge potential in APAC. Countries with considerable market for occupancy sensor systems are China, Japan, Australia, and South Korea. These systems, which are an integral part of a digitalized household, are expected to find increased acceptance among consumers in this region. Although energy-efficient smart lighting products are considered an expensive option in this region, the higher energy savings vs. traditional lighting systems justify the bargain.
