Wind Speed sensors are designed for a varied range of wind study applications. These sensors are designed for long period unattended operation in most of the meteorological environments. Wind Speed sensors are used in anemometers, a device use for measurement of wind speed, and is also a familiar weather station device. Anemometer detects and identify any changes or distinguishes in physical property of the wind or air. The device also measures the speed of wind or air in a contained flow or uncontained flow. The contained flow includes airflow in duct whereas the uncontained flow includes flows such as atmospheric wind. The parameters such as reliability, accuracy and economy makes the wind speed sensors as an ideal choice in most of the applications. The ultrasonic type of an anemometers is typically a microprocessor based wind speed sensor that is capable to measure the wind velocity with single axis, dual axis or triple axis along with reliable accuracy. The device measures the wind speed by transmitting and receiving an ultrasonic signal.

Due to the rising demand for the advanced instruments for wind velocity and also for the quality monitoring, the growth of the anemometers or the wind speed sensors are increasing rapidly. The major applications that drives the wind speed sensors market includes tracking of atmospheric weather conditions, air pollution, and environment monitoring. Increasing air pollution directly increases the need for the air quality monitoring equipment to avoid any type of airborne diseases. Due to such reasons, many government organizations and firms are focusing into air quality monitoring that further boosts the market growth of the wind speed sensors. One of the major restraining factor that restricts the growth of the wind speed sensor market is the high capital investment. Also due to the complexity in designing the anemometers the market growth for wind speed sensors are restricted. However, the growing use of anemometer in varied industrial purpose such as defense, marine and meteorology creates an opportunity for the growth of wind speed sensor market. Also the increasing number of projects in wind energy generation in pipeline during the forecast period is expected to drive the growth of the global wind speed sensor market.
The global wind speed sensor is segmented into design type, mounting position, application, and geography. On the basis of design type, the global wind speed sensor market is segmented into cup, propeller, ultrasonic and others. Based on mounting position, the global wind speed sensor market is segmented as Flat Front (FF), Pipe Mount (PM), Direct Mount (DM), Surface Mount (SM). Based on application, the wind speed sensor is segmented into environmental monitoring, Wind Turbine Control, Meteorology, Defense, Marine and others. Geographically, global wind speed sensors market can be segmented into North America, Europe, Middle East & Africa, Asia Pacific and Latin America. North America is expected to be the leading market for the wind speed sensors, followed by Europe. Asia Pacific region is anticipated as an emerging market for the wind speed sensors due to growing awareness among people about the increasing air pollution and rising adoption for an environmental monitoring equipment.
