The manufacturing industry has witnessed radicle changes in processes that are used to manufacture things. Earlier, goods were produced with bare hands. Subsequently, with advancements in technology, machines were used to produce goods. This paradigm shift in production techniques is termed as the Industrial Revolution. The Industrial Revolution has its roots in England where it began in the 18th century and was later transferred beyond national boundaries to neighboring countries such as Germany and France. By the second half of the 18th century, the revolution came across the sea to the US. The two most important changes that the Industrial Revolution brought to manufacturing were:

Conduction, radiation, natural, forced convection, and thermal storage are the five thermal processes that take place in a micro speaker. Conduction refers to the transfer of heat from a hot source to a colder sink via a physical path. In a micro speaker, heat is conducted from the voice coil. The conduction takes place in the air gap in between the magnet, voice coil, and the magnet circuitry. Radiation transfers the heat through emission at a higher temperature. The general working temperature of a micro speaker is below 212̊ F. At lower frequencies, the micro speaker membrane motion forces the heat and the air from the speaker to the ambience via the ventilation holes. Thus, the membrane pumps the air in and out of the micro speaker.

Medical laser systems serve a wide variety of medical treatment fields from dermatology, ophthalmology, gynecology, and urology. The launch of a wide range of surgical and aesthetic laser treatments has led to several medical laser procedures being performed every day. The advances in medical laser technology have helped vendors to develop cost-effective photonic solutions, including beam delivery components, and designs of laser systems.

Medical imaging is the process of creating visual representations of the interior of a body for clinical analysis and medical intervention. Medical imaging is performed to reveal the internal structures hidden by the skin and bones to examine and diagnose the medical condition. It plays a vital role not only in diagnosis but also in the treatment process as it is taken into consideration during the follow-up of various diseases. Various methods for medical imaging include X-rays, SPECT/PET, ultrasound, CT, and MRI. For the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases, these methods are used individually or in combination for a better understanding of the medical condition.

In medical education, physical examination is an essential element of learning to provide students with a hands-on experience and enable them to learn accurate clinical diagnosis. However, medical education requires a high level of self-regulated learning. Owing to the extensive preclinical education involved, students find it challenging to memorize and retain knowledge pertaining to clinical study material. In addition, many of the universities also have limited teaching resources. Despite these challenges, medical educational institutions across the globe have been successfully delivering excellent workforce of physicians and medical professionals.

Medical adhesives and sealants are usually used for surgical procedures and the bonding of medical appliances. Medical adhesives and sealants are used for the fabrication of an extensive range of medical appliances. These medical appliances are either disposable or can be used several times. Some medical adhesives and sealants are ideal for fixing an extensive range of substrate surfaces including plastics, metals, and rubbers, whereas others are suitable for skin applications.

APAC led the global laundry care products market with a share of 37.25% in 2016, and will continue its lead over the forecast period. The region's large population, increasing disposable income, and growing demand for hygiene and health products are key factors that drive the sales of laundry care products here. The growing demand for fragranced products is also likely to drive sales in the region. Church & Dwight, Henkel, P&G, The Clorox Company, and Unilever are popular vendors that operate in APAC.

A lightning strike carries around 100 million volts of electricity and up to 100,000 amperes of current. Hence, lightning protection systems are critical to ensuring the safety of people and infrastructure. Lightning rods are an important component of any lightning protection system. This metallic rod serves as the initial point of lightning strike. The global market for lightning rods is expected to be driven by the increasing demand from industrial end-users such as power plants, manufacturing plants, and oil and gas plants. The increasing consumption of lightning rods in commercial buildings due to the increasing use of sensitive, smart devices is another key factor driving the growth of the market.

Since the invention of the first light bulb by Thomas Alva Edison in 1879, the lighting industry has gone through a series of technological advances. The discovery of Geissler tube in the early 19th century led to the development of fluorescent lights. Now, LED lighting, a kind of solid-state lighting, uses a semiconductor to convert electricity into light and can emit light in a specific direction. It is penetrating the market at a very high rate.

Interception of data and voice communications is a lawful obligation of telecommunications service providers. The demand for lawful interception solutions is generated by a number of stakeholders such as government regulators, law enforcement agencies (LEAs), and communication service providers to prevent crime, including fraud and terrorism. LEAs perform electronic surveillance as authorized by judicial or administrative orders while minimizing the violation of civil liberties and privacy to collateral users. Most of the countries have adopted lawful interception regulations. These regulations may vary from country to country. Lawful interception is the official legal access to private communications such as e-mail messages and telephone calls. Lawful interception allows companies to make their communications available to law enforcement officials when requested.
