Changing the Nature of Business: 3D Printing
|
|
The advent of 3D printing is one of the newest forms of manufacturing and a major trend which has led many businesses to invest in 3D printers with embedded systems to fabricate items for use in medical technologies, consumer products, defense, automobile and airplane manufacturing, and more. This growing industry, which is expected to be a $12.8 billion industry by 2018 according to Wohlers Report 2015, is making many major manufacturers switch to 3D printing because of its fast and flexible processes while providing ender users with the means of providing superior services and products.

The Forecast: Global EV Charging Stations will Rise by 2020
|
|
With the rise in popularity of electric vehicles and push for “green” energy solutions, electric vehicle charging stations are becoming more and more present in society. To maximize efficiency, more advanced embedded computer systems are being integrated into these charging stations to make available more charging locations, data collection and remote management in order to increase accessibility and ensure the success one of the most important global alternative energy solutions.

Trends to Watch: Dental Implant Technology
|
|
According to the Dental Implants and Prosthetics Market Global Forecast, revenue for the dental implant industry is expected to reach more than $10 million by 2020 because of the growing senior citizen population and aging baby boomer generation. Instead of dentures, patients are looking toward implants that are made of biocompatible metal that remain in place. This new technology grants the patient a sturdy new tooth. Many dental professionals see the procedure as a better and more durable alternative to dentures. To help dentists while assessing and performing dental implant work, medical panel PCs are being integrated into dentist offices as a human-machine interface tool to help control the procedural applications and eliminate paper documents.
