Increase in Adoption of Sensors in Customer Electronics is Propelling the Global Biometric Sensor Market to Grow

Published: Jun 2025

Biometric sensors market, estimated at $2,245 million in 2024, is projected to grow to $7,620 million with a CAGR of 11.8% during the forecast period (2025–2035). One of the crucial factors that have been boosting market growth is the growing military activities between countries for strengthening the security of the nations. Such military collaboration has increased in the past few years as the tensions between the countries have risen. It has also increased the sales of biometric sensors by exchanging new technology and weaponry between the countries. For instance, in January 2022, Australia purchased 120 tanks and other biometric sensors from the US is $2.58 billion. This deal includes 17 bridge landing vehicles, 29 assault clearing vehicles used against minefields, and six repair and evacuation tanks. As per the report, the first batch of such weapons was delivered in 2024 and put into service from 2025.

Moreover, in January 2022, Tech5 participated in a pilot of biometrics and other technologies in partnership with Ethiopia’s MOSIP-based National ID Program that is providing biometric data quality assessment, de-duplication, and more, as details on the major foundational digital ID system, which continues to emerge in the next years. The Zetes Company has also joined MOSIP as both a solution provider and technology or service partner, in which they are building two categories under the modular open-source system’s Partner Programme. 

In June 2025, Token announced the launch of Token BioKey, a new line of FIDO-compliant security keys designed to provide enterprises with phishing-resistant, passwordless multifactor authentication (MFA). The Token BioKey series features built-in on-device fingerprint sensors and secure elements, enabling robust biometric authentication in a compact, durable, and field-upgradable form factor. These keys offer a seamless and highly secure user experience, aligning with the growing demand for modern authentication methods that go beyond passwords and one-time codes.
