Hand geometry biometrics is the fastest implemented biometric type, that was introduced in the in the market by 1980. The biometric systems are extensively put into practice for their public acceptance, integration capabilities and ease of use. One of the limitations of the hand geometry biometrics is that it is not unique and it limits the usage of the hand geometry biometric system to confirmation tasks only. The systems measure the hand geometry with the help of lights and digital camera. The system works by simply placing the hand on a surface, aligning fingers against several pegs to make certain an exact reading.

The air treatment equipment includes those products which modify or change the technological characteristics and properties of air. This modification may include the treatment of harmful gases present in the air, increasing or decreasing the air temperature, compressing the air, removal of harmful microorganism from the air, increasing or decreasing the air pressure, removal of extreme odours and others. The air treatment equipment includes air compressor, air dryers, air washers, air filters, injectors and others.

Augmented reality (AR) generally portrays as a real time hub and integrated combinations of text, graphics, audio and several other enhancements to customer screens and showcase real-world objects. With increasing uptake of social media, Augmented Reality application providers are focusing on developinga location-based services for mobile devices.

Globalization has brought many changes with it in the recent past. Currently, no business is restricted to one place. It is required collaboration with all the international and domestics players. Collaboration is new mantra adopted largely by all the enterprises. Which is found increasingly useful. Key challenge that companies were facing a combination of right collaboration tools that can help marketeers to exchange the idea and communicate to each other as effective as a face to face meeting. This has made the web conferencing a key differentiating medium due to requirement of communicating with clientele in the real time.

Document outsourcing involves the outsourcing of document processing to a third-party service provider. Document processing service providers convert typed and handwritten text into paper-based electronic documents by using intelligent character recognition (ICR), data entry techniques, and optical character recognition (OCR).

Herbicides are crop protection material used for killing undesired plants without causing any harm to the plantation and thus increase agricultural productivity. Herbicides are often modified for a particular plantation based on plant hormones to ensure the safety of the desired plantation. Herbicides are also employed for clearing land of plants and herbs where they kill all plants in a region. Other applications for herbicides include lawns, gardens, drainage and water bodies to clear aquatic weed.

Geosynthetics are polymer products used for infrastructure solutions in civil engineering, coastal engineering, construction industry and environmental protection projects. Geosynthetic materials are generally made up of polyethylene, polypropylene and polyester. Geosynthetics are segmented based on physical characteristics in following types including geonet, geotextile, geomembrane, geogrid, geosynthetic clay liner, geofoam, geocomposite and geocell. The major applications of geosynthetics include road, water management, railroad stabilization, mining, erosion control, waste management, soil reinforcement in civil construction among others.

Ceramics are covalent compounds containing metal and non-metal atoms primarily held in covalent and ionic bonds. Generally, ceramics are made by taking mixtures of earth elements, powders, water and clay. This mixture is shaped into the desired form and is then fired in a high temperature oven. Ceramics are then painted with glazes which are waterproof and decorative. At elevated temperature, ceramics have high hardness, high melting points, excellent chemical corrosion resistance and good mechanical properties. Some ceramics are good dielectrics or insulators, whereas others are good electrical or thermal conductors. Ceramics are widely used in our daily life. Glass, plates, bricks, tiles and sanitary ware are some examples of the ceramics we see every day. Ceramics can also be found in products like automobiles (sparkplug), phone lines and watches. They are even used in space shuttles and aircrafts. Ceramics can be broadly classified into two categories: traditional and advanced. Traditional ceramics include clay products such as cement and glass, whereas advanced ceramics consist of pure oxides, nitrides, carbides and many others.

The global acetone market is mainly driven by use of acetone in production of chemical and as a solvent. Stringent government regulations and growing demand for bio-based acetone will decelerate growth of the global acetone market during the forecast period. However, increasing use of BPA in the automobile industry and construction industry is expected to further drive growth of the global acetone market in the near future.

New molecules developed by Segetis, in Minnesota based on esters of levulinic acid made from using bio based hydroxyl compounds and corn cobs are known as levulinic ketals. These can be used to produce a series of products such as plasticizers, polyols for polyurethane foams and solvents.
