An interactive whiteboard (IWB) is a large display that can be connected to a computer to display images and data. IWBs allow users to drag, click, and copy items using a pen, finger, or stylus. They have emerged as one of the most popular and successful technologies in classroom environments, as they allow users to annotate, print images, and save or distribute documents over networks. This technique makes the teaching process easier and more interesting than using conventional whiteboards.

A lathe machine usually consists of a bed, headstock, tailstock, and carriage. The bed enables the tailstock and the carriage to be in parallel with the axis of the spindle. Furthermore, the bed also doubles as the base of the lathe and is connected to the headstock. The main spindle, change gears, and speed change mechanisms are mounted on the headstock. The tailstock is directly mounted on the spindle axis and serves as the tool holder. The tailstock and the headstock are mounted opposite to each other. The carriage is where the drill bit or the tool bit is placed and holds it in position, as it moves longitudinally or perpendicularly. The direction of the movement of the cutting tool is actually controlled by the operator.

AR engines contain SDKs that provide the necessary tools to develop AR content,software applications, and graphics. They employ tools that use third-party libraries,and include algorithms for computer vision and image processing. However, an AR application developer also has the option to use other software for image recognition and camera calibration. Several AR tools are currently available in the market such as ARToolKit, String, Metaio SDK, DroidAR, ARLab, Android SDK, Eclipse, and Xcode.Certain toolkits are built for face tracking or for marker-based technologies.AR technology is used to blend digital content into the physical world. Computergenerated

images of an individual's surroundings along with relevant information are displayed in a user’s field of vision. The technology enhances user experience through mobiles apps developed specifically for using AR.

With the rapid advances in technology, it is possible to achieve things that could not be achieved 20 years back. In the 1990s, there were a lot of concerns regarding the use of VR, with several companies trying to implement the technology. The most remarkable device back then was the Nintendo Virtual Boy. However, it failed and was discontinued a year after going on sale. Since then, AR and VR technologies have grown substantially and are being gradually used in several applications across various sectors. Video games and cell phones are driving the development of these technologies. All users from tourists to soldiers to someone looking for the closest subway stop can benefit from the ability of AR technology to place computer-generated graphics in their field of vision.

Attack helicopters are aerial maneuver platforms usually employed to engage targets using weapons systems. Apart from conducting attack missions, such helicopters are also used for reconnaissance and security operations. They are capable of rapidly deploying mass combat firepower using weapons and supporting the ground forces during critical times for effective battle outcome. They also enable the commanders to reach far-stretched battlefield areas owing to their mobility and flexibility.As of 2016, over 19,480 attack helicopters have been deployed by defense authorities across the globe. A few countries such as the US, China, Russia, India, South Korea,Japan, and Italy possess powerful and advanced attack helicopters, which provide them an edge over other countries. In addition, these countries comprise approximately 50% of the total number of attack helicopters globally.

The market is expected to witness high adoption rates of systemic therapies, which will provide users an advantage over the conventional therapies. Systemic therapies include immunosuppressive and immunomodulatory therapy,immunoabsorption, allergen-specific immunotherapy, and antimicrobial treatment.In early 2017, the market will witness the launch of the first biologic,dupilumab, which showed a strong dose-dependent efficacy in adults with moderate to severe atopic dermatitis. This drug has been developed jointly by Sanofi and Regeneron and is expected to reach sales of approximately $1.1 billion by 2020.Increasing inorganic growth strategies of vendors will help expand their presence in the market and lead to further consolidations. For instance, LEO Pharma acquired global rights for AstraZeneca’s atopic dermatitis drug tralokinumab, which has already cleared phase IIb trials.

ATCA is an industry standard specification developed by the PICMG for nextgeneration CG communications equipment. PICMG is an association of numerous companies and organizations, which collaboratively develop open standards for highperformance telecommunications, military, industrial, and general-purpose embedded computing applications. PICMG’s original motto was to extend the PCI standard to non-desktop applications. Some of the major standard families developed by PICMG comprise CompactPCI, AdvancedTCA, MicroTCA, AdvancedMC, CompactPCI Serial,COM Express, SHB Express, and HPM.The market is growing rapidly because of the increased adoption of ATCA CPU blades in numerous applications in the communication and network infrastructure sector, the transportation, military, and aerospace sector, and the industrial and medical equipment sector. These sectors are currently employing multi-core processor technology such as 3 or 4 core, dual core, 5 to 8 core, and more than 8 core processors.

Aseptic packaging is the packaging of products in the aseptic environment in presterilized containers, to prevent the products from contamination and maintain freshness for a long period of time. Aseptic packaging involves flash pasteurization of products to retain their original aroma, texture, and organoleptic characteristics and contains no preservatives or additives. The containers are sterilized by chemical, heat,or gamma ray treatment. The containers can be pouches, bags, ampules, vials, or prefillable syringes and can be of different dimensions. They have a shelf life of more than two years. Dairy, food and beverage, and pharmaceutical and healthcare sectors are the key customers of aseptic plastic packaging products.In this report, Technavio covers the present scenario and growth prospects of the global aseptic packaging market for 2017-2021. To calculate the market size, the report considers the revenue generated through different applications of aseptic packaging and types of aseptic packaging.

The artificial pancreas device systems (APDS) market has huge opportunities to grow as the existing devices lack efficiency in insulin delivery mechanism. With the advent of enhanced versions of existing devices, which will be closed loop in nature, the market's unmet needs would be addressed during the forecast period.In 2015, Medtronic was leading the market with a share of 58%. It dominates the

market with its established product, MiniMed 530G, which has a unique feature of automatically halting insulin delivery when the glucose level reaches the threshold value. Going forward, the new approvals such as MiniMed 640G in Europe and MiniMed 630G in the US should help it maintain its share in the market.

Aroma chemicals, also called odorants or fragrances, are natural or synthetic compounds that are characterized by their pleasant smell. These compounds are usually obtained from essential oils and the aromatic compounds. They have a molecular weight less than 300 Da and are extremely volatile and tend to vaporize.In this report, Technavio covers the present scenario and growth prospects of the global aroma chemicals market for 2017-2021 by considering 2016 as the base year.The report presents the vendor landscape and corresponding detailed profiles of the five prominent vendors operating in the market.
