Automated container terminals use container handling equipment that requires no human interaction and can be operated using hardware, software, and terminal operating systems (TOS). The first container terminal with full automation features became operational two decades ago. The initial automated container terminal was in the Netherlands, (ECT Delta). The container terminals are built with automated stacking cranes (ASCs) and some terminals use automated guided vehicle (AGV).Automated container terminals are intended for the handling and stacking of cargo into or out of container. Shipping ports and container terminals play a crucial role in facilitating global trade. The use of automation has boosted the volume of ship-borne world trade significantly. Despite these facts, there are several containers terminals in the marine industry, and most of the companies remain small with minimal market share. Most of the cargo is transported in huge ships (also called mega ships). Shipping is widely popular in international trade as it remains the cheapest

means of transport across borders and continents.

The in-flight broadband market encompasses services that are employed to provide internet connectivity to airline and business jet passengers, as well as solutions that allow passengers to access digital media. The rapid growth in the bandwidth consumption with the use of mobile and other digital devices has also encouraged airlines to offer similar on-board connectivity solutions. Therefore, many airlines are in the process of establishing a connectivity environment where passengers can experience superior on-board broadband networks.

The hydraulic cylinder industry will see a steady growth during the forecast period due to a continuous demand from the agriculture, construction equipment, mining equipment, material handling equipment, industrial equipment, aerospace, and defense sectors. It is estimated to grow from $8.85 billion in 2015 to $10.97 billion in 2020, growing at a CAGR of 4.39%. The gain looks promising globally. This is because, in developing economies, the rising demand for food is prompting the agriculture industry to increase the output in order to sustain the existing population. This can be achieved by mechanizing agriculture processes.

The demand for cocoa is increasing with the growth of chocolate confectioneries and other end products. In 2014, the production of cocoa beans was the highest in Africa (73%) while grinding of cocoa beans was the highest in Europe (39%). Cocoa production is characterized by small-scale farmers who only have limited access to funds and have limited knowledge of technology, as well as dated skills. This is a major concern that restricts the growth of the cocoa market. The market will likely record stable growth rates through modern agronomy techniques and soil reclamation. Along with the development of infrastructure and political stability, which supports free trade, the market will likely witness an increase in yields. Infrastructure development in terms of warehousing and roads for transportation, and other such factors that affect cocoa production in regions such as Africa are expected to improve in the coming years. Political stability can greatly impact the supply potential of cocoa, and hence is crucial for the stable growth of the market.

The industrial sector's prominence in energy consumption is evident with its high levels of energy consumption share in different types of fuels. The industrial sector is also a prime contributor to global warming because of large CO₂ emissions from industrial manufacturing units. In addition, the motor systems and drives employed in industries are responsible for 7% of the global electrical consumption.

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.
