Market Overview

Automotive biometric sensors are increasingly integrated into modern vehicles to enable functions such as driver identification, fatigue detection, emotion monitoring, and access control. These sensors use biological data including fingerprints, facial recognition, voice, retina, and heart rate to facilitate real-time insights and personalization.

With the shift toward autonomous and connected mobility, biometric sensors are becoming pivotal for Human-Machine Interface (HMI) in cars. OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers are embedding these sensors in steering wheels, seats, dashboards, and infotainment systems to enable adaptive responses based on driver behavior and physiological state.

Market Description

Biometric sensors in vehicles operate by capturing and analyzing physiological characteristics through technologies such as optical scanning, capacitive sensing, infrared imaging, and ECG-based monitoring. These sensors not only enhance in-car security by enabling biometric-based start systems, but also contribute to road safety by continuously assessing driver health and fatigue levels.

In luxury and high-performance segments, voice recognition and face ID are increasingly replacing traditional keys. In electric and autonomous vehicle platforms, biometric sensors help tailor cockpit settings and drive profiles, adding another layer of intelligence to next-gen mobility.

Key Developments in the Automotive Biometric Sensors Market

• January 2022: LG Electronics unveiled a novel biometric authentication system that enables vehicle startup through facial recognition and finger gesture identification. The system employs multiple in-vehicle cameras-one to detect the user's body parts, and another that dynamically adjusts its viewing angle to accurately capture biometric markers such as the iris, providing a seamless and secure user experience.
• March 2021: The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) published details of a patent filed by Samsung for a fingerprint-based vehicle ignition system. This innovation includes a fingerprint sensor embedded in the vehicle's steering wheel, which can work in tandem with the driver's smartphone as a secondary authentication factor, enhancing vehicle security and driver identification protocols.
