Looking at the dramatically rising rate of chronic disease prevalence and aging population more susceptible to acquiring chronic conditions, the report opines that potential applications in healthcare will particularly benefit from the electronic skin technology development. Flexibility and ultra-thin nature are emerging as paramount attributes pushing electronic skin adoption, making it an ideal candidate for wearable medical devices.
- Besides potential applicability in breast cancer diagnostics, the market is favoring from research on electronic skin’s usability in healthy tattoos and non-invasive wound tracking
- Stretchable conductors and stretchable circuits hold a combined share of more than half of the total electronic skin market revenue
In the backdrop of increasing investments in R&D of developing self-healing, comfortable monitoring systems by using electronic skin, FMI envisages electronic skin gaining the platform technology status in healthcare realm. At present, around 32% of the total revenue is being generated by adoption of electronic skin in healthcare. The report forecasts bullish prospects for revenue growth through e-skin adoption in healthcare, at around 20% Y-o-Y in 2019.
Consistent growth in research investments directed to discover new application platforms for electronic skin technology is cited as a high-impact demand growth determinant for electronic skin market. Consumer electronics, though currently registering moderately rising usage of electronic skin technology, are on the brink of emerging as the most lucrative investment pocket for electronic skin technology innovators in coming years. The report foresees that e-skin technology adoption will be on a constant high in consumer electronics, accounting for an exponential rate post 2020.
While electronic skin technology has already been trialed for application in portable remote control systems for hardware, emergence of attractive investment avenues are speeding up adoption of electronic skin in wearables, which already has a sizeable consumer base compared to a majority of other consumer electronics. This according to the report will play a crucial role in bolstering electronic skin market revenue in coming years.
