Wearable technology market is in early stage of evolution with growing adoption in various end-use segments such as fitness and wellness, healthcare and medical, industrial and military and infotainment sectors. Wearable fitness and wellness products include smart clothing, activity monitors, sleep sensors and others; whereas the infotainment segment includes smart watches, smart glasses and heads-up displays among others. On the other hand, products like continuous glucose monitors (CGM), drug delivery, and wearable patches are being predominantly used in healthcare and medical sector. Hand worn terminals, heads-up displays and other such products are being used in the industrial and military settings.

Among all the wearable technology end use segments, the healthcare and medical segment held the largest revenue share followed by fitness and wellness in 2012. However, in 2018, the infotainment segment is expected to surpass the fitness and wellness segment driven by robust growth of smart watches and smart glasses. The healthcare and medical segment accounted for about 35.1% of the overall wearable technology market in 2012 primarily due to the rising aging population and increase in diabetic population.

The global and Chinese e-waste recycling and reuse services market is driven by limited shelf life of electronic products, existence of rare earth metals, growing health and environmental concerns, and high rate of obsolescence. However, the e-waste recycling and reuse services market is inhibited by high e-waste management cost, low awareness in less developed nations and few e-waste collection zones. The global e-waste services market grown from USD 8,682 million in 2010 toUSD 9,828.0 million in 2012. The Chinese E-waste services market is expected to surpass USD 1 billion mark by 2017. The material processing and recovery services and triage and de-manufacturing services will account for more than 55% of the Chinese e-waste services revenue in 2017.

Out of the total e-waste produced in 2010, 9,188.4 thousand tons of e-waste was recycled and reused. It is expected that by the year 2017, 12,263.8 thousand tons e-waste generated from household appliances will be recycled and reused, as against 3,611 thousand tons recycled and reused in 2010.

The global revenue generated through recycling/reuse of e-waste components such as metals, plastics, silica and others will reach USD 13,856.6 million in 2012. This will further reach USD 25,192.8 million in 2017 at a CAGR of 12.7% during the forecast period. Recycled metals are the largest revenue generating segment accounting for about 53.7% revenue of the e-waste recycled components market in 2012.

The interest shown by various electronic goods manufacturers open new horizons for the e-waste services market by accepting the discarded electronic products and recycling and reusing it rather than dumping it. Dumping and land filling are some of the burning issues still debated across the globe; however EPA regulations has helped stop land filling across many developed countries.

This research is specially designed to estimate and analyze the demand and performances of the e-waste recycle and reuse services market and thus its segments in the global market. The research provides in-depth analysis of the various services being provided in the e-waste market, the current and projected volume produced and disposed through various methods, trend analysis by segments and demand by geography. The report covers all the major segments of the e-waste market as per the source of e-waste generation and the disposal methods market and provides in-depth analysis, historical data and statistically refined forecast for the segments covered.

Apple Declare 3 Million iPad Mini and iPad 4th Gen Sold in Three Days

Apple’s newest members of the iPad line-up, the iPad mini and the updated iPad 4th gen, have managed to sell more than 3 million units in three days since launch.

Usually I’d say that was a pretty good number, but it’s not really that impressive, considering that they combined sales for both the iPad Mini and the new 4th gen iPad, so you dont really know how many of each have sold. Apple’s CEO Tim Cook stated;

“Customers around the world love the new iPad mini and fourth generation iPad. We set a new launch weekend record and practically sold out of iPad minis. We’re working hard to build more quickly to meet the incredible demand.”

The numbers also dont include cellular iPads which wont ship for another few weeks. Still better than the 1.5 Million Wifi 3rd gen iPads sold at it’s launch, I guess? Considering that that the new 4th gen iPad and iPad mini are available to buy in 34 countries though, it really does seem like a somewhat small-ish number for Apple.

Transparency Market Research has added a New Report On "Control Valves Market - Global Industry Size, Market Share, Trends, Analysis And Forecasts, 2012 - 2018".

Valves which are used to control pressure, temperature and level of liquid are called control valves. It is widely used in industries where the flow and level are required to be maintained. Control valves open or close responding to the process variable defined for its operation by means of electric and pneumatic actuators.The major factors which are driving the control valves market includes: growing investment in the oil & gas sector.

Read More: Control Valves Market

This automatically creates demand for control valves, as they find application right from the extraction of crude oil/gas till it reaches the end customers via refinery and oil terminals/depots. Emerging economies like China and India are also increasing their hydrocarbon investment which is again boosting the demand for control valves. But, despite the growing demand for control valves globally, the challenge is of setting up an efficient system of logistics and supply. Another challenge faced by the global valves manufacturing companies is to evolve with time and cope up with changing requirements of their clients by innovating control valves. Immense opportunities exist in emerging economies like India and China which are boosting their investment in hydrocarbons in order to cater to the growing demand for fuel.
