Solid-state transformer (SST) is an advanced power converter that offers bi-directional power flow, which makes use of power electronic components. These transformers are also known as solid-state transformers, such as universal power electronics, intelligent universal transformer, energy control center, and power electronics traction transformer. However, the most common term used to refer SSTs is smart transformers. The concept of solid-state technology has been getting attention in the recent years as a direct result of advances in power electronics, smart grids, and growth in application sectors such as renewable energy generation.

Surge protection devices (SPDs) are designed to protect electrical appliances from voltage spikes. SPDs limit the voltage supplied to an electric device by either blocking or shorting any unwanted voltages above a safe threshold limit to the ground. They are used in automatic control buses, electric power supply networks, telephone networks, and various communication systems. The key factor that drives the SPDs market includes increase in demand for usage of electrical and electronics appliances in commercial & residential sectors. Moreover, high costs incurred due to electrical equipment downtime have also encouraged the adoption of SPDs as it provides safety in industries and in the domestic sector. The key factors that hamper the growth of this market are lack of awareness among small scale manufactures and competition from uninterrupted and non-fluctuating power supply systems. On the contrary, growth in awareness for need of SPDs, rapid industrialization, and power supply issues in developing countries are anticipated to provide lucrative opportunity for the market.

Water covers 71% of the earth’s surface and accounts for 75% of the human body content. Among 3% of the global freshwater sources, only 0.4% is accessible as tap water. Lakes, rivers, springs, aquifers, and groundwater are some of the major freshwater sources. However, groundwater is becoming scarcer in densely populated regions owing to excessive usage. Desalinated seawater is unlimited in supply but is considered expensive due to the amount of energy involved in making it fit for human consumption. The complexity in water accessibility and treatment techniques has been a major crisis in the past decade.

The growth in the global population is driving the demand for food in the past decade. The demand for food grains is expected to grow by 59−98% by 2050. This will change the face of agricultural markets in ways that we may not have seen before. Farmers worldwide are expected to increase crop production either by raising the quantity of agricultural land to grow crops or by enhancing productivity on existing agricultural lands through fertilizers, irrigation techniques, and adopting new methods such as precision farming.

Technology plays a very important role in the healthcare and medical fields. Several technological equipment and devices such as digital thermometers, insulin pumps, smart inhaler pulse oximeters, blood glucose meters, wireless brain sensors have been designed for better healthcare. In the medical field, over 500,000 technological devices are being used in hospital settings and various other healthcare facilities. With growing technology in healthcare, there have been advancements in Internet of Things (IoT) and sensors that improve patient safety, information accuracy, and critical quality control. Healthcare technology has the potential to improve the use of sensors in the medical sector.

Intravenous (IV) therapy helps to deliver medications, fluids, and other nutrients directly into the body through veins. IV therapy is used during lifesaving therapeutic treatment and in wellness treatment. Since ancient times, blood therapy has been around, and blood has been viewed as a therapeutic substance. However, lack of proper understanding of blood types, infectious agents, and the absence of ideal materials such as plastics held back IV therapy for centuries. Later, IV therapy became the fastest way of delivering blood products, medications, vitamins, or other vital fluids. IV therapy is usually provided to the patient with the help of an intravenous catheter, either through an injection with a syringe or infusion.

Wi-Fi range extenders improve the Wi-Fi signal of the internet. They are used in combination with the Wi-Fi router. There are several different products used for the Wi-Fi range extension such as Wi-Fi extender and repeater or booster. Wi-Fi range extenders provide a boost to the existing network by receiving the wireless signal from the router and rebroadcasting it out farther at a distant location. They are majorly used to connect to the internet where there is a weak signal. The weak signal is a result of complex structure of the building or home or low Wi-Fi range of the router. Thus in such cases, the Wi-Fi range extender connects to the internet by using the existing signal from the Wi-Fi router.

Ultrasonic flowmeters use ultrasonic waves to measure flow rate of fluids. The calculation is done from frequency shift of a transmitted ultrasonic signal that has travelled through the process fluid. The working principle of ultrasonic flowmeters is based on Doppler effect or Transit-time type. Although both these technologies are based on ultrasonic signals, there are major differences in the way the signal is transmitted and received. This difference makes them ideal for a wide range of fluids such as liquids, gases, and steam.
