Dynamic Vision Sensors Market Report 2026

The dynamic vision sensors market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.34 billion in 2025 to $1.49 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growth of machine vision adoption in industrial automation, limitations of frame-based sensors in high-speed environments, demand for low-power vision solutions, advancements in neuromorphic engineering research, early adoption in robotics and surveillance.

The dynamic vision sensors market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.28 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing deployment of autonomous robots and vehicles, rising demand for real-time edge vision processing, integration of dvs with AI accelerators, growing need for energy-efficient sensing technologies, expanding applications in smart manufacturing and healthcare. Major trends in the forecast period include ultra-low-latency vision processing, event-based sensing for high-speed motion capture, reduced data bandwidth and power consumption, sensor fusion with conventional imaging systems, miniaturization of vision sensors for embedded systems.

The rising adoption of autonomous vehicles is expected to drive the growth of the dynamic vision sensors (DVS) market. Autonomous vehicles are self-driving cars capable of navigating and operating without human intervention, using sensors, cameras, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning algorithms. This adoption is fueled by advancements in AI and LiDAR sensor technologies, which improve real-time decision-making and environmental perception for safer and more efficient driving. Dynamic vision sensors support autonomous vehicles by delivering high-speed, low-latency visual data, enabling precise motion detection and obstacle tracking even in challenging lighting conditions. For example, in June 2024, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), a France-based intergovernmental transport organization, reported that governments and cities expanded autonomous vehicle testing and pilot programs in 2023 compared with 2022, facilitating larger-scale trials of shared automated shuttles and robotaxi services. Additionally, in June 2023, the U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a U.S.-based government safety agency, documented increased testing and research on automated driving systems, reflecting larger operational trials in 2023 versus 2022. Therefore, the growing adoption of autonomous vehicles is driving the dynamic vision sensors market.

Companies in the dynamic vision sensors market are focusing on launching innovative products such as ultra-low-power event-based vision sensors to improve real-time motion detection and energy efficiency. Ultra-low-power event-based vision sensors work by detecting changes in a scene asynchronously, capturing only moving elements while minimizing energy consumption. These sensors enable faster and more efficient motion detection while reducing device power requirements. For instance, in October 2023, Prophesee SA, a France-based semiconductor company, introduced the GenX320 event-based metavision sensor, considered the smallest and most energy-efficient event-based vision sensor in the industry. The GenX320 includes a 320×320 6.3μm pixel BSI stacked design in a compact 3x4mm die, offering a 1/5” optical format. It provides microsecond-level event timestamping, intelligent on-chip power management that lowers energy use to as little as 36 µW, and supports deep sleep and standby modes. The sensor is designed for easy integration with standard SoCs using MIPI or CPI interfaces and includes on-chip preprocessing and AI-ready histogram outputs compatible with multiple AI accelerators.

In February 2024, SynSense AG, a Switzerland-based neuromorphic computing company, acquired iniVation AG for an undisclosed amount. Through this acquisition, SynSense plans to combine its expertise in ultra-low-power neuromorphic processing with iniVation’s advanced neuromorphic vision systems to create the world’s first fully neuromorphic, end-to-end sensing and processing company. The goal is to deliver intelligent vision solutions for both industrial and consumer applications. IniVation AG, also based in Switzerland, is a neuromorphic vision systems provider specializing in dynamic vision sensors.

Dynamic vision sensors (DVS) are advanced imaging devices that detect changes within a scene instead of capturing complete frames at fixed time intervals. They function asynchronously, with each pixel operating independently to register brightness variations, allowing for ultra-fast and low-latency visual processing. This method minimizes data size while improving motion tracking and temporal precision.

The core elements of dynamic vision sensors (DVS) include hardware, software, and services. The hardware comprises physical units such as sensors, processors, and memory, which collect and process visual information in real time for dynamic vision applications. Different technologies are integrated, including event-based, frame-based, hybrid (event + frame), time-of-flight, and complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS), among others. These support features such as three-dimensional (3D) vision sensing, two-dimensional (2D) vision sensing, image analysis, and motion tracking. Such components are utilized in fields such as machine vision, robotics, autonomous driving, and surveillance, serving industries such as automotive, consumer electronics, manufacturing, healthcare, and robotics, among others.North America was the largest region in the dynamic vision sensors market in 2025.
