With hype around some of the core wearable technology sectors beginning to wane, IDTechEx have released their latest analysis of this diverse and growing industry in their brand new report Wearable Technology 2016-2026. The report finds the market to be worth over $30bn in 2016, with over $11bn of that coming from newly popular products including smartwatches and fitness trackers. However, despite the total market growing to over $150bn by 2026, ...

Very large Li-ion battery banks were largely unknown ten years ago. Now, it is tough to keep up with the variety of uses for them. On ships, where there were no such batteries, we are starting to see 1-5MWh banks. Autonomous underwater vehicles, mining trucks and buses can sport ones of up to 350kWh but it is in stationary applications that really big facilities have arrived. Here there is a multiplier effect with Li-ion gaining market share in g...

The Tesla 3 gets nearly double the range of the Nissan Leaf by using nearly double the amount of battery but engineers are using a multitude of work rounds to do better: aerodynamics, lightweighting even including structural electronics where dumb structure is replaced by supercapacitors or solid state batteries. Add more efficient motors and powertrain. Fuel cell hybrids retain the cachet of most expensive solution with a long on-road charging t...

The TCF industry has recently experienced sluggish growth. The industry has transitioned from being supply-limited to being commoditised and demand-limited with supply currently outstripping demand. This is a commonplace characteristic of supply industry into consumer electronic devices: there is often a scramble for supplies as demand rapidly takes off but the industry soon over-invests, the capacity overshoots demand and competition renders the...

EVs have a cost challenge: hybrids have complexity problems meaning reliability and space issues. Extra power electronic units arrive for tasks such as a vehicle-to-grid, vehicle-to-house and inductive charging. Many more will be added in future such as regeneration modules - thermoelectric, exhaust turbine, energy harvesting shock absorber and thermoelectric, for example.

The IDTechEx report, Microcontrollers and Single-board Computers 2016-2026, is the first to reveal the big picture developing from the close relationship between these devices. The report provides newly researched forecasts leading to figures such as $300bn in 2026 for SBCs alone. Applications, technologies, players and markets are revealed in easily understood infographics offering a depth never seen before. For example, the ten year forecasts f...

Advancements in electronics technology are enabling medical electronic equipment designed for faster diagnosis, improved patient quality of life and new drug-based therapies. Patient monitoring, display and testing equipment is becoming more accurate, versatile, compact and portable allowing for improved bedside treatment. Such equipment includes blood glucose monitoring systems, insulin pumps, defibrillators and neurological stimulators. Reducin...

Stellar growth over the coming decade is forecast by IDTechEx for the EV business resulting in nearly one trillion dollars sales at ex-factory prices in 2026. About half of that will probably be the 48V mild hybrids first launching in 2017 when they will not be EVs i.e. propelled by electric motors some or all of the time.
