Global Optical Pulse Sensor Market 2018-2022: Increasing Popularity of Diagnostic Wearable Devices
April 30, 2018 | PRNewswireEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The global optical pulse sensors market to grow at a CAGR of 11.28% during the period 2018-2022.
Global Optical Pulse Sensors Market 2017-2021, has been prepared based on an in-depth market analysis with inputs from industry experts. The report covers the market landscape and its growth prospects over the coming years. The report also includes a discussion of the key vendors operating in this market.
The latest trend gaining momentum in the market is the growing popularity of diagnostic wearable devices. Diagnostic wearable medical devices play a significant role in monitoring a range of medical conditions including hypertension, blood glucose levels, heart rate, body temperature, and sleep patterns. Advances in some diagnostic wearable medical devices have led to an increased number of individuals using these devices.
According to the report, one of the major drivers for this market is the rising adoption of wearable devices. The smart bands market in APAC is witnessing considerable growth due to the proliferation of low-cost smart bands in this region and a decline in their ASPs. Owing to the increase in disposable incomes and internet penetration, smart band vendors are focusing on tapping the growth potential of the market in this region and they have adopted online and offline channels to enter APAC.
Further, the report states that one of the major factors hindering the growth of this market is the growing design constraints of wearable devices. Wearable devices face design constraints, which could hamper the growth of the market. Most of the existing gadgets are focused on technology and have several design constraints related to issues associated with the physical shape, size, and weight of a diagnostic wearable device and its ergonomics. This will negatively impact the adoption of wearable devices, in turn, challenging the demand for optical pulse sensors.

RF PCB Design Tips and Tricks
05/08/2025 | Cherie Litson, EPTAC MIT CID/CID+There are many great books, videos, and information online about designing PCBs for RF circuits. A few of my favorite RF sources are Hans Rosenberg, Stephen Chavez, and Rick Hartley, but there are many more. These PCB design engineers have a very good perspective on what it takes to take an RF design from schematic concept to PCB layout.
