Global pandemic scenario of thermal detectors market size 2019-2020, by application

The thermal detector market grew from 290 million to 350 million between 2019 and 2020. The pandemic COVID-19 had a positive impact enabling a 20 percent year-on-year growth in this market. The highest growth was seen in 2020 for low-end temperature measurement applications, which almost doubled in size from 2019.Thermal detectors used in low-end temperature measurements consist of a thermal infrared camera that enables quick reading of a person's body temperature without any contact. This fast measurement of body temperature helps detect fever, which is also a symptom of COVID-19. Thus these devices are used extensively as preliminary screening measures worldwide by governmental agencies and large companies.

2019年至2020年间，热成像探测器市场从2.9亿增长至3.5亿。COVID-19大流行对该市场产生了积极影响，使得该市场实现了20%的年同比增长。2020年，低端温度测量应用领域的增长最为显著，其市场规模几乎翻倍。在低端温度测量中使用的热成像探测器包括一种热红外摄像头，该摄像头能够迅速读取人体温度而无需接触。这种快速的人体温度测量有助于检测发热，发热也是COVID-19的一种症状。因此，这些设备在全球范围内被政府机构和大型企业广泛用作初步筛查措施。
