Expanded Use Cases and Ecosystem Integration to Reignite Wearable Market in 2028

Wearable demand growth declined to 14.6% YoY in 2022 from 27.7% YoY in 2021 due to the economic slowdown after the peak of the COVID pandemic. This trend persisted in the first half of 2023, as longer replacement cycles and a lack of compelling features suppressed consumer demand. However, technology intelligence firm ABI Research predicts that the overall wearables market will rebound, reaching 689.33 million shipments by the end of 2028, with a CAGR of 11.3% between 2023 and 2028.

Nanusens Announces That It Can Now Create ASICs With Embedded Sensors

Nanusens has announced that it has successfully created a fully digital circuit design to measure the capacitance of its nanosensors. This means that both the sensor structure and its detection circuitry can be made at the same time within a chip using standard CMOS processes on whatever process node is required. As a result, ASICs can now be made with several different sensors embedded within them, helping to expand MEMS applications in hearables.

AMS Launches Smallest Proximity Sensor To Enable Integration of New Functionality In Space-Constrained Wireless Earbuds

AMS launched the TMD2636, a fully integrated proximity sensor which occupies 30% less space than currently available solutions, and delivers transformational added value to manufacturers of True Wireless Stereo (TWS) earbuds. The new TMD2636 fully integrated proximity sensor module is supplied in an ultra-low-profile package. This means that an earbud can now accommodate multiple proximity sensors to increase reliability or add new features and still save power when the earbud is not in use.
