With the booming development of scientific technology, the mobile phone is no longer a simple communication tool, but a portable electronic device with integrated functions. You can use the phone to listen to music, watch movies, take pictures and so on. Mobile phones have gradually entered into human’s daily life. In this case, the various sensors are emerged in smartphones. The requirements on smartphones are increasingly high. Telephone, SMS, multimedia, etc., are just basic applications, to be more intelligent and more humanized is the user's goal. Under these con-ditions, a variety of sensor applications in smartphones are wider.
This thesis focused on a deeper interpretation of various traditional sensors and its applications in smartphones, such as image sensor, fingerprint identification sensors, gravity sensor and so on. Admittedly, the progress of new developing sensors was also mentioned in this thesis. There were some breakthroughs in this field and the newness which had brought better prospects.
This thesis also tracked the marketing of smartphones from statistics and dynamics, then explored the global market and current smartphone services, finally made an evaluation of business future according to the investment and venturing.
In conclusion, this thesis showed the importance of sensors to smartphones. The superiority and usability of sensor were noticed by venders and developers. Moreover, the rising demands of smartphones should not be underestimated.
