A laparoscope comprises a long, thin tube with high intensity light along with high resolution camera in front. The camera transmits images to monitor as it travels through the abdomen. Laparoscopy is used for diagnosis as well as treatment of endometriosis, ectopic pregnancy, pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), cysts, and fibroids. The report includes the revenue generated from all devices used for laparoscopic procedures, and the revenue generated by laparoscope device manufacturers. Revenue generated by clinics or hospital services provided to patients through use of laparoscope devices is excluded from the market, as this revenue, known as service cost, is earned by respective hospitals and clinics among end users.

The growing preference for figure skates in sports and recreational activities, coupled with a rising number of figure skating events and sponsorships, is expected to propel the demand for ice skates in general and figure skates in particular The increasing influence of celebrity endorsement, along with the growing media coverage for such events, is expected to further fuel the market growth. Further, there are various governing bodies, such as The International Skating Union ( International Skating Union of America ( and UK Sport, which promote figure skating events, such as the Olympic and the Paralympics. For instance, UK Sport funded GBP 1 236 million into figure skating for the Olympic winter games held in PyeonChang in 2018 compared to GBP 0 174 million in the Olympic winter games held in Sochi in 2014 This encouraged the involvement of consumers in various figure skating activities in the United Kingdom. Similarly, during 2015 2016 the US Figure Skating spent more than USD 15 million for athlete funding and assistance, sending athletes to international competitions, athlete programs, collegiate skating programs, synchronized skating programs, and awarding performance bonuses In fact, more than 1 700 events, including shows, exhibitions, and competitions, are sanctioned by US Figure Skating each year

Mechanization in the agricultural sector played a vital role in terms of transformation, especially in the high income countries Additionally, in the emerging markets (such as African countries, ASEAN countries, and other developing countries), the adoption rate of mechanization in the agricultural sector has been gradually increasing, since the past few years Some of the major factors driving the demand for mechanization are rapid urbanization, growth of medium sized farms, and rising rural wages, along with seasonal labor shortages The rising demand for mechanization, along with an increasing number of medium scale farmers, is driving the adoption of tractor hiring in Ghana and other African countries, majorly in the south of Sahara This is expected to allow tractor owners to fully utilize their machines, while providing services to farmers who cannot afford their own tractors. In October 2018 FAO and the African Union launched a new framework that aims to increase agricultural efficiency, while reducing hard work and labor, by helping countries in Africa to develop strategies for sustainable farm mechanization

An industrial control system (ICS) consists of combinations of control components, such as electrical, mechanical, hydraulic, and pneumatic, that come together to achieve an industrial objective (e.g., manufacturing, transportation of matter, or energy). The control part of the system includes the specification of the desired output or performance. Control can be fully automated or may consist of a human in the loop. The systems can be configured to operate in the open-loop, closed-loop, and manual modes. With the large-scale, continuous, and highly parameterized industrial devices, the need for industrial automation systems is continually increasing. The present-day industrial control systems have evolved from existing physical systems to the addition of IT capabilities, often replacing or supplementing physical control mechanisms. Thus, to independently meet the requirements of safe start-stop, stable operation and optimal operation of industrial production systems, it has become a necessity to automate various industrial products and manufacturing systems seamlessly.
