Study: NFC, MEMS Sensors, and Gesture Recognition the famous Smartphone Differentiators in 2013.

These data provided by ABI Research, show us progressively the power, the evolution, the capability, and the useful of the Smartphones, in terms of technologies and supports embarked.

Therewith, according to ABI Search, accelerometers, vision-based
gesture recognition, gyroscopes, and NFC are predicted to be the feature set big winners in smartphones in 2013.

Still within this recent study, Connectikpeople, has discovered that, in 2013, almost 12% of smartphones shipped will have vision-based gesture recognition capabilities.

In addition, accelerometers and gyroscopes play a crucial role with today’s mobile devices, enabling devices to be more intuitive and take action without a user pressing a button.

We can also observe that, the fast growing mobile gaming market is highly dependent upon smartphones including gyroscopes, which enhance gaming experience.

Finally, regarding the NFC (Near Filed Communication) technology which is not yet mature in terms implementations, Connectikpeople can observes that, the technology has primarily been focused around mobile payments.

‘’ Mobile OEMs have begun to see other potential capabilities for the technology such as photo-sharing and location information tag points that could open a huge market for advertising and marketing campaigns. Within three years, it is anticipated one in two smartphones shipped will include NFC and have gesture recognition capabilities’’.

Accelerometers and gyroscopes will be the “norm” with most smartphones’’. Concluded the study.
