Establishments described in this report are primarily participating in the smart sensor market. A smart sensor is a device that takes input from the physical environment and uses builtin compute resources to perform predefined functions upon detection of specific input and then process data before passing it on.

Establishments described in this report are primarily participating in the smart lock market. A smart lock is an electromechanical lock which is designed to perform locking and unlocking operations on a door when it receives such instructions from an authorized device using a wireless protocol and a cryptographic key to execute the authorization process.

This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in (1) manufacturing acyclic (i.e., aliphatic) hydrocarbons such as ethylene, propylene, and butylene made from refined petroleum or liquid hydrocarbons and/or (2) manufacturing cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, styrene, xylene, ethyl benzene, and cumene made from refined petroleum or liquid hydrocarbons.

The equipment described in this report are primarily defined by its title since the title is generally long and includes most of the criteria used to differentiate the equipment from other similar equipment. The equipment descriptions are sourced from the U.S. Census. Additionally descriptions can be collected from the manufacturing industry descriptions that each equipment is categorized. The U.S. Census manufacturing industry descriptions for equipment are listed below:

Establishments described in this report are primarily participating in the tow prepreg market. tow prepreg is a tow (fiber bundle) product that is preimpregnated with resin. By using tow prepregs with the filament winding (FW) method, a forming method used in CF shaft and gas cylinder production, high productivity can be achieved.

Establishments described in this report are primarily participating in the transparent display market. A see-through display or transparent display is an electronic display that allows the user to see what is shown on the screen while still being able to see through it.

Establishments described in this report are primarily participating in the vcsel market. The vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser, or VCSEL, is a type of semiconductor laser diode with laser beam emission perpendicular from the top surface, contrary to conventional edge-emitting semiconductor lasers which emit from surfaces formed by cleaving the individual chip out of a wafer. VCSELs are used in various laser products, including computer mice, fiber optic communications, laser printers, Face ID, and smartglasses.

Establishments described in this report are primarily participating in the wearable materials market. Wearable materials can be flexibly used in the production of wearable devices and their parts, such as sensors and batteries. These materials possess distinctive characteristic features, including permeability, transparency, adhesion along with biocompatibility properties. Moreover, they are quite skin friendly.

The power generation market consists of sales of electric power by entities (organizations, sole traders and partnerships) that operate electric power generation facilities. These facilities generate electric power using various forms of energy, such as fossil fuels, nuclear, solar, wind and water. The establishments in this industry produce electrical energy and provide electricity to electric power transmission and distribution systems.

The digital scent technology market is expected to grow from USD 1.009 billion in 2021 to USD 1.97 billion by 2027, at a CAGR of 11.78%. The market growth can be attributed to several factors, such as expanding application and advancements in e-nose technologies, increasing use of e-nose devices for disease diagnostic applications, emerging R&D activities to invent e-nose to sniff out COVID-19, and rising use of e-nose in food industry for quality assurance in production, storage, and display.
