The ultrasonic sensors measure distance through ultrasonic waves. The sensor head releases an ultrasonic wave and accepts the wave reflected back from a target. These sensors measure the distance to the target by calculating the time between emission and reception. The ultrasonic sensors are broadly used in diverse industries, including food & beverage, chemical, medical, automotive, agriculture, process, wastewater management, and more. These sensors have their application in a conveyor belt, smart parking, vehicle detection for car washes, pallet detection with forklifts, diagnosis, liquid level sensing, trash level monitoring, production lines, and others. Some of the prominent benefits of ultrasonic processing technology include process intensification, low power consumption, low cost of processing, operator-friendliness, simple adaptability to specific applications, and environmental safeness makes ultrasonication a technique for the reliable product quality with better outcomes. Owing to an increase in integrating automation into manufacturing and other industries, the use of industry 4.0 is contributing heavily towards the growth of the ultrasonic sensor market. Moreover, the use of sensors in autonomous vehicles and other vehicles with ADAS features to measure the range during parking is giving other opportunities to the automotive industry for growth. On the contrary, the availability of substitute products such as an optical sensor for measuring distance might act as an obstacle in the growth of ultrasonic sensor market.

Over the last few decades, the global commercial service robot market has witnessed the introduction of disruptive technologies such as enhancement of AI along with hardware integration in commercial service robots. Smart robots that hasten several manual operations for humans is one of the most disruptive technologies. At present, the market is witnessing several innovations, with the introduction of cobots (collaborative robots) being one of them.

In the mid-20th century, the advancement in cardiac surgery has created a need and demand for an artificial source that helps in stimulating the heart muscle. Initially, the scientist developed large-size external devices causing discomfort in patients. Later, the advancement in technology has resulted in the miniaturization of electronic circuitry and eventually the development of totally implantable devices. These advancements continue till date, with the recent introduction of leadless pacemakers, that are directly implanted within the cardiac chamber.

Heart failure is a chronic progressive condition that affects the pumping power of the heart muscles. Heart failure refers to a stage in which fluid builds up around the heart and makes it in-efficient in pumping. Humans have a four-chambered heart the upper half of the heart has two atria and the lower portion of the heart has two ventricles. The ventricles pump the blood to body organs, and tissues and atria receive the blood from the body to circulate the blood. There are two types of left ventricular failure, such as systolic heart failure and diastolic heart failure. The systolic heart failure is when the left ventricle fails to contract normally, whereas the diastolic dysfunction is when the heart muscle in the left ventricle becomes stiff.

Tailgates are the rear gates that are attached to the backside of the vehicle and are used to occupy the passengers at the back of the vehicle or to accumulate luggage. Tailgates used in a vehicle are of different types such as manually operated tailgates or the automatic tailgates and this depends on the level of autonomy of the vehicle. Owing to increased production and sales of the vehicle along with the technological upgradation in vehicles, manufacturers across the globe have introduced various products in tailgates, which leads to the growth of the automotive tailgate market across the globe.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the blockage or narrowing of the coronary arteries, that usually occurred by atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is the deposit of cholesterol and fatty matters, known as plaque on the inner walls of the arteries. Such buildup can restrict blood flow to the heart muscle by physically blocking the artery. Such a situation can cause chest pain which is called angina. Such cut off of blood supply to a portion of the heart muscle, may cause a heart attack.

With the technological advancements across industries, the oscilloscopes have also transformed with the arrival of a digital oscilloscope. Oscilloscopes are primarily used in designing and manufacturing activities. However, with the advent of digital oscilloscopes, there has been a growth of end-use verticals and applications, which is making a positive impact on the market studied.  Increased focus on product design, safety, and density is driving the adoption of oscilloscope in the manufacturing sector, globally. Additionally, the increasing R&D investments across various industries, such as automotive, healthcare, and electronics, are creating new growth avenues for market players. Scientific instruments and medical monitoring instruments are widely getting adopted in developing and developed economies. The technological innovation is playing a significant role in the adoption of real- time oscilloscope among the end-user industries. The growth of the semiconductor and electronics industry is another vital driving force for the growth of the market studied.

The past two decades have witnessed rapid technological advancements and development of robots for rehabilitation applications, such as in sensorimotor deficits resulting after damage to the central nervous system. The increasing cases of these types of problems across the world have led to the development of innovative rehabilitation robots coupled with advanced interaction controls and the usage of integrated sensors to constantly monitor and adapt the support to the actual state of patients. These rehabilitation robots are helping patient's recovery by assisting and encouraging upright walking and by relearning of lost functions for patients affected by stroke and paralyses. According to a study by Maxon Motor AG, the company estimated that approximately 185 million people use a wheelchair daily, worldwide. Since the advent of first clinical studies with the MIT-Manus robot, robotic applications have been increasingly used to restore loss of motor function, mainly in stroke survivors suffering from an upper limb paresis but also in cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, and other disease types. Thus, numerous studies suggested that robot-assisted training, integrated into a multidisciplinary program, resulted in an additional reduction of motor impairments in comparison to usual care alone in different stages of stroke recovery.

PLC is the primary computing system, which controls automated machines. The system also helps in detecting any errors or flaws and alerts the technician. PLC systems are also preferred over traditional systems, like relays and switch boxes, due to their compact sizes. Another advantage of PLCs is their multi-functionality (owing to their programmable nature that can be used for multiple operations depending on the application). Machine downtime is one of the major factors that has an impact on the manufacturing efficiency of an industry. It is estimated that downtime is responsible for 5-20% of the manufacturing losses incurred during operation. The deployment of PLC systems enables the identification and rectification of errors, and can initiate rapid responses even without human intervention. Hence, these automated PLC systems are estimated to assist in reducing the machine downtime from 20% to almost 4%. The market studied is strongly impacted by the industrial output and the investment funneled into the computers and software. These PLC systems have traditionally been the foundation of both process and discrete factory automation. The growing adoption of Industry 4.0 across the industrial verticals has augmented the market studied.
