After the collection of waste, the traditional way of sorting the waste is by manual ways. But this is not considered to be efficient. Thus, the development of automated robot-based sorting systems was conceptualized in 2016. Furthermore, these systems have been improved using Artificial Intelligence(AI). But the development and adoption of these robotic waste sorting systems have been slow, as the municipalities highly depend on either dumping or landfills to get rid of their waste. This is evident from how late these robotic systems were introduced. The United States started testing the Robotic sorting systems in 2016. The adoption of robotic sorting systems is expected to explode in the coming years, due to the anti- dumping regulation imposed by China and the new landfill regulation imposed by each country.

The demand for narcotic detection is driven by the increasing instances of trafficking of drugs, such as cocaine, and heroin, among others. Various law enforcement agencies, like Phoenix (Arizona) Police Department, are implementing sophisticated narcotics analysis technologies that are designed to improve the safety and welfare of the communities they protect and serve. With the emergence of cannabinoids (K2 spice), dibutylone and synthetic cathinones (bath salts) that are visually indistinguishable from one another, there is a dire need to deploy narcotic scanners to restrict the unauthorized movements of drugs. The Office of Field Operations, a US federal law enforcement agency managing operations at over 300 ports, including 15 pre-clearance stations in the Caribbean, Ireland, and Canada, reports a continued rise in the number of drugs being smuggled observed in the United States. Sealed cargo containers, used for shipping goods across the world, have always been a challenge for law enforcement to search. When faced with several containers on a single ship, the task of screening all of them is monumental.

The major factors attributing to the growth of the market are the increasing number of disabling hearing loss cases, rising geriatric population indirectly contributing to increased awareness of these devices, and increasing technological advancements by the companies. As per the revised World Population Prospects, by the United Nations, the number of people aged 60 or above is expected to grow greater than double by 2050, i.e. from 962 million in 2017 to 2.1 billion in 2050, worldwide. This age group is much more vulnerable to hearing loss, which boosts the demand for these devices in the market. According to “The Global Burden of Disease Study 2017” Disease and Injury Incidence and Prevalence Collaborators report, the estimated population with hearing loss rose from 1.2 billion (17.2%) in 2008 to 1.4 billion (18.7%) in 2017, for whom proper well-coordinated global action is needed.

Environmental monitoring involves the evaluation of the quality of the environment to control the risk of pollution. The primary goal of environment monitoring system is to monitor different environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, airflow, smoke and to keep a detail record of these factors with a live video streaming using a high-quality camera. Surge in health concern and increase in deaths due to rise in pollution levels and rise in the need for better resource management drive the growth of the market. In addition, ongoing installation of environmental monitoring sensors and development of environmentally friendly industries propels the growth of the market. However, high product costs and slow implementation of pollution control reforms in emerging countries are expected to impede the market growth. Furthermore, rising participation and investments by businesses for deployment of pollution monitoring is expected to present major opportunities for the expansion of the market in future.

The global electric vehicle market is expected to register a CAGR of around 20% over the next five years. The electric vehicles (EV) market has witnessed significant growth due to the need for addressing future energy requirements. The need to attain sustainable transportation plays a significant role in driving the electric vehicles’ demand. The EV market is coming up as an integral part of the automotive industry and represents a pathway toward achieving energy efficiency, along with reduced emission of pollutants and other greenhouse gasses. Increasing environmental concerns, coupled with favorable government initiatives, are some of the major factors driving the market growth. Rising energy cost and competition among emerging energy efficiency technologies are also expected to fuel the market growth.

Batteries have the capability to tackle one of the most important social, economic, and scientific challenges of the 21st century, i.e., the ability to store electrical energy for decentralized stationary or mobile applications. At a global scale, across several sectors, exist multi-fold opportunities, and future battery technologies. Among different types of secondary batteries, lithium-ion is becoming a more popular battery technology, majorly due to its favorable capacity-to-weight ratio. Other factors in boosting its adoption include better performance, higher energy density, and declining price. The lithium-ion batteries were initially developed to serve the consumer electronics sector as these batteries last for a large number of charging cycles, have a high capacity-to-weight ratio, and high energy density, which makes them ideal for consumer electronics applications. The price of lithium-ion batteries is usually high compared to other batteries. However, leading players in the market have been investing to gain economies of scale and R&D activities to improve their performance and prices.
