The VCM (Voice Coil Motor) driver market was worth USD 2 billion in 2023 and is expected to be worth USD 3.5 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period.

 

A VCM (Voice Coil Motor) driver is an electronic device that regulates the operation of a voice coil motor particularly utilized in the autofocus of cameras. It allows for control of the position of the lens for focus and stability in applications such as mobile phones, thereby improving the sharpness of the lens.

 

The VCM (Voice Coil Motor) driver market is mainly propelled by the emerging consumer electronics market and the increasing use of quality camera modules in smartphones. As more mobile devices that have two and multiple cameras integrated into mobile phones are introduced into the market, VCM drivers are critical in providing the necessary autofocus for the smartphone cameras and stabilizing the image.

 

One of the latest trends in this area is the application of 3D sensing technology in self-driving automobiles and security systems, where there is also an increased demand for VCM drivers. For instance, Sony and Apple have incorporated sophisticated VCM drivers into their products for the purpose of optimising camera operation, with miniaturisation and higher accuracy being the key trends in this market. The development of camera technology is expected to progress across industries, which will also progress the VCM driver market.

 

The VCM or Voice Coil Motor driver market represents vast opportunities as cameras are advancing with smartphones, self-driving cars, and robot vision requiring the motor for focus and positioning. In the global smartphone market that shipped over 1. 4 billion units in 2022, the need for VCM drivers remains a key part of the continued move towards multi-camera smartphone devices with more advanced specs like optical zoom and image stabilization.

 

A relatively new trend in this market is the use of VCM drivers in LiDAR systems for autonomous vehicles as these automobiles require accurate control to observe the environment and create a map in real-time. Current examples include Sony and Alps Alpine which have adopted high-performance VCM driver technology in communicating their message of the growing utilization of VCM drivers in various industries beyond mobile phones to automotive and robotics industries. This growth opportunity is brought by the increasing demand for higher camera performance and automation across different industries.
