China's sensor industry imports accounted for 80%

Sensors constitute the basic unit of the Internet of Things. They are the eyes and ears of the Internet of Things and are the source of information for the Internet of Things. Sensors have become the bottleneck in the development of China's Internet of Things, and localization requirements are urgent. The development of China's sensor industry is lagging behind. Domestic sensor demand, especially high-end demand, is heavily dependent on imports. Localization gap is huge. At present, sensor imports account for 80%, and sensor chip imports account for 90%.

In recent years, rapid development of sensor technology, improved detection accuracy, reduced manufacturing costs, and reduced chip size have greatly promoted the rapid expansion of the Internet of Things industry. The Internet of Things will develop into a high-tech market with a scale of trillions of yuan. The scale of the industry will be 30 times larger than that of the Internet. The sensor is the largest and most basic link in the total demand for the entire IoT chain. It is expected that the market size will reach 120 billion yuan in 2014.

For the Internet of Things to achieve better development, domestic sensor companies are shouldering heavy responsibility. Increase technological innovation, seize market opportunities, provide reliable sensor support for the development of the domestic Internet of Things, reduce the import share of sensors, and contribute to the localization of IoT sensors.
