LiDAR or LADAR stands for ’Light Imaging, Detection, And Ranging’ or ’Light Detection And Ranging’. It is a surveying technique that calculates the distance to targeted objects by illuminating them using laser light. It is commonly used for making high-resolution maps and has several applications in geomatics, geodesy, archaeology, geology, and geography.

We have heard people saying that they want to escape reality. We all have spent nights thinking about various scenarios where we can do what we want - become the hero, so to speak. Who would not want to immerse themselves in a world where they could interact with objects that they can only think of?  Some will say, “Not me!”, but the truth is that this is too enticing an idea to put down.

Smart label is used as an identification tool which has advanced features and properties as compared to its conventional counterpart barcode. Ease of use, fast performance, and quick data access have helped smart label to gain consumer preference. Smart label consists of an electronic responsive device which shares the accurate data in consistent digital format.

The escalating investments in industrial and infrastructural developments in the Asia Pacific and North American regions are expected to fuel the distribution automation systems demand over the forecast period. The mounting electricity demand has led to the development and enlargement of power infrastructures, which necessitates the installation of these systems.

Everything in this world is getting smarter day-by-day. Technology is able to gauge and sense human needs and learn to lend a helping hand to overcome obstacles in the matter of seconds, which would consume a lot of time if done in a conventional way. Cooking has been one thing which still requires time, although not as much as it used to; however, it is getting simpler gradually and smart household cooking appliances are here to help us accomplish just that!

The rising need for laser processing in the industrial solar module is expected to drive the market growth. The upsurge in demand from the industrial sector is expected to spur the growth of high-power lasers. High-power lasers that are used in hard facing or laser cladding act as alternatives to methods such as oxy-fuel gas welding, arc welding, and thermal spraying.

Agrochemicals are essential components of the agriculture industry. They are used as crop protection chemicals and plant growth regulators that help in increasing yield. Due to the growing population, there is an added pressure on farmers and agricultural organizations to meet food demand in a limited span of time. use Fertilizers gain increasing importance in such situations.  Water and land scarcity have resulted in the discovery of new products, such as adjuvants and plant growth regulators, which help in increasing yield.

Biochar is a charcoal which is rich in carbon and is formed through thermal decomposition of organic waste in a low oxygen environment. Pyrolysis is a widely used technique to produce it in abundant quantity. Raw materials used for biochar production are easily available and are low in cost, they include plant waste, agricultural residue, wood (wood pellets), and animal manure.

Coiled tubing is a term that is used frequently in the oil and gas industry, but will definitely sound unfamiliar to common folks. So, what exactly is it? Simply put, it is an electrically welded tube, which is manufactured with one longitudinal seam. The seam is formed by high-frequency induction welding without the addition of filler metal. It is a long pipe spooled on a large reel, and is 1 to 3.25 inch in diameter.

Resins are " solid or highly viscous substance " which change into polymers. They are plant determined or engineered in cause and exist in the blends of natural mixes. Corrosion resistant resins are high-performance specialty polyester and ideal for the manufacture of tanks, pipes, and vessels that contain acids, alkali, fuels, foodstuffs, water, and other demanding material which corrode metals. 

Pumping systems are used in multiple industries and are able to do plenty of types of work, and that makes it something which is extensively sought after. Industrial pumps, which are one of the types of pumping systems, are in demand from industries such as oil & gas, power and food & beverages among others. Advancement in technology is the key behind increase in the demand, as it led to spurt in the efficiency of the pumps to handle everyday tasks, as well as pushed the reliability factor of the pumps.

Insect growth regulators (IGRs) act by interrupting the reproductive cycle of an insect. They inhibit the larvae from attaining adult stage. Insects have an external skeleton known as exoskeleton. As the life cycle of the pest advances and reaches the molting stage, a new skeleton develops inside the old exoskeleton, which is shed later. Different types of insect growth regulators act at this stage by releasing a hormone, which prevents the pest from developing further.
