So says Research and Markets, a market research firm out of Dublin, Ireland says that the market for wireless sensor systems should grow rapidly over the next 5-10 years and has potential to reach 5 to 7 billion dollars in future. The WSN market will grow rapidly from its current small base, sales will multiply year-to-year. Annual growth rates will fall through a still substantial 40 or 50%. I think it has potential to be but it is too far out to predict that number right now. First, it needs to find a few solid beach heads to grow out of its currrent commercial infancy status. What do you guys think?
