One of the primary factors driving the global automotive active seat head rests (ASHR) market is the rising incidences of whiplash-related injuries, especially in first world countries. Automotive insurance companies are taking notice of the trend, thereby pioneering the work on ASHR globally.There has been no lack of the regulatory push for ASHR in comparison with several safety-related advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), which have waited for years to get approval from regulatory bodies.In this report, Technavio covers the present scenario and the growth prospects of the global ASHR market for 2016-2020. To calculate the size of the market, we have considered a combination of top-down and bottom-up approaches, wherein our inhouse databases have been used to arrive at the global ASHR market size.

Switchgears are segmented as per the arc-quenching medium that is used within the equipment. Various types of arc-quenching medium include air, SF6 gas, and oil. With the emergence of hybrid switchgear technology in the late 1990s, the equipment incorporated two different technologies in its operation. One was the use of gas for arc quenching purpose, while air-insulation technology was adopted for bus bars to be connected to other equipment present in a high-voltage sub-station. The target is to maximize the advantages of these two existing technologies and enhance the overall operation and performance of the equipment and the connected components within the grid network.

Extruded snacks are products produced by either direct or indirect extrusion. The extrusion technology can produce a wide array of products, and the process is time effective, simple, and offers flexible designing with the product.

Organizations use event management as a service to manage academic and professional exhibitions, conferences, and shows.

Patients unable to eat, digest, and absorb nutrients from the small intestine require enteral-assisted feeding. Enteral nutrition is provided via the GI tract, which is the fastest, cost-effective, and preferred physiological method of feeding.

Energy management systems use computer-aided tools to monitor, control, and optimize electrical loads. These systems help users to conserve energy by monitoring and reducing energy consumption of electrical and electronic devices. They have the provision of feedback on electricity consumption patterns and power consumption data for individual appliances and different areas of a building such as common areas, cafeterias, data centers, and lobby areas. This allows better energy management and improved profitability through efficient operation. They can perform pre-programmed functions such as maintaining the temperature and lighting in different areas in real time, according to various preferential settings specific to different areas.

The automobile suspension system dates back to the beginning of 19th century when automobiles were invented. That time, internal combustion engine-powered vehicles were in the embryo stage, and two innovations were made to form the vehicle's suspension system. For the first time, front coil springs were used along with dampeners that acted as shock absorbers for minimizing vibrations in vehicles. Later, suspension systems saw the use of new setup with leaf springs, which were less costly and flexible in terms of changing shape so as to accommodate varying weights. This system was initially used by European automakers.

Broadband connections have developed over a period of time in terms of network expansion, innovation, and usage. The number of global broadband users has increased from 400 million in 2000 to 3.4 billion users in 2015. Globally, nearly 80% of the households in developed countries and 34% in developing countries had internet access by 2015. The high penetration of the internet has led to the growth of digital content streaming and downloading since 2011.

Consumer drones are used to capture photos and shoot videos. They are also used as toys. Consumer drones are capable of capturing high-speed actions, distinct objects, and are designed for rugged conditions, including extreme weather. Consumer drones are equipped with GPS tracking and high-quality cameras that allow users to take photos of distinct objects, without any threat to life.

CEP services include the delivery of parcels and documents to different types of customers such as business customers, retail customers, and government agencies. The parcels and documents delivered by the CEP vendors are non-palletized items, which usually weigh less than 110 pounds. The global CEP market is at a growing stage. This is attributable to the increased demand from e-commerce, increased Internet penetration, rising disposable income of people, and increased inter and intratrade services.
