Smartphones have become a basic necessity and an integral part of the lives of almost all individuals worldwide. A smartphone is a mobile phone that functions like a computer. It typically has a touchscreen interface, Internet access, and an OS that can run application software or apps that are integrated with other devices and sensors to provide users information on a real-time basis. Smartphones can be used to perform applications, including making calls, instant messaging, taking pictures and videos, browsing the Internet, carrying out financial transactions, creating presentations, and analyzing data. Almost 10 years ago, performing these functions without a computer were considered impossible.

Haptics is a tactile feedback technology that reinvents the sense of touch by applying forces, vibrations, or motions to the user. Through this technology, consumers can perceive touch sensations while using electronic devices. Haptics is enabled by actuators that are embedded in the device, and it makes the user experience more physical and realistic. The use of haptics technology in controllers, joysticks, steering wheels, and video games has enhanced the user experience by engaging light, sound, and touch effect.

Cloud computing is the use of computing resources that are delivered to customers with the help of Internet. The evolution of cloud computing has led to the emergence of cloud-enabling technologies such as virtualization, automated computing, and service-oriented architecture (SOA) technologies. Cloud computing enables enterprises to use these technologies without having a deep understanding or expertise of how they function. Virtualization refers to the technique of creating a virtual version of the physical infrastructure and is the most popular among cloud-enabling technologies. It reduces IT costs and improves the agility of the business. After the emergence of cloud-enabling technologies, IT operations are being automated, and resources are being supplied on demand. SOA refers to a collection of services that can be integrated and offered as cloud-based solutions to enterprises. Advances in these technologies have led to the increased adoption of cloud-based services worldwide.

Connected cars enable drivers to connect with online platforms and obtain real-time communication, such as real-time traffic updates while traveling. Over the years, automotive manufacturers and service providers have been developing connectivity solutions such as M2M connectivity platforms. M2M connectivity enables the interconnectivity between two vehicles. Connected cars enable drivers to connect with online platforms and obtain real-time communication, such as real-time traffic updates while traveling. Connected car services comprise of entertainment provided by content providers and advertisers, diagnostics by repair or maintenance providers, and navigation solutions. Other services include safety and security such as tracking services, road assistance, alarm systems, location sharing, concierge services, as well as analytics and insurance services.

Flexible AC transmission system is a power electronic device-enabled AC transmission system capable of transferring electricity with regulated power flows in transmission routes, securing loading of transmission lines nearer to their thermal limits, and providing higher system stability. Power electronics-based and other static controllers boost power transfer capability by managing active and reactive power supply or absorption.

With the rise in competency levels in the education industry, a marked surge in procuring tutoring services has been observed globally. In tandem with this growth, leading tutoring providers have adapted and incorporated changes in their delivery and marketing methods to reach out to a larger base of students. From the students' perspective, the majority of the students enroll for online tutoring services to prepare for standardized tests and school-level exams. Traditionally, offline or face-to-face tutoring methods represented the global K-12 tutoring market. This created many limitations for tutors and students in terms of time and personalized learning requirements.

The global nano programmable logic controller (PLC) market was valued at $2,585 million in 2016, and is expected to reach $4,250 million in 2023, growing at a CAGR of 7.0% from 2017 to 2023.
