One of the most exciting new innovations in the jewelry industry is lab created diamonds, which are often indistinguishable from natural diamonds, and are expected to become much more common and readily available in the near future" (O'Connell, 2020). Moreover, "increasing disposable income and innovative jewelry designs offered by manufacturers are anticipated to drive the demand for jewelry over the forecast period. The introduction of new designs and emerging fashion trends are attracting more customers. Manufacturers are leveraging this daily change in fashion to innovate more products and designs to attract customers" ("Jewelry Market Size"). Customer demand for jewelry products is growing worldwide partially due to more customers with rising disposable incomes becoming eager to obtain jewelry products that are perceived as status symbols. Furthermore, the jewelry market is slated to grow partially due to more men around the world becoming content with wearing jewelry products. "Products such as plain gold chains, cufflinks, tie bars, cartography necklaces, and signet rings are few of the products common among men" ("Jewelry Market Size"). More customers are keen on being trendy are therefore inclined to buy more recently released jewelry products to be deemed fashionable. In the pending future, demand for bridal jewelry will amplify to an unprecedented height. Women relish wearing jewelry and are often furnished with bridal jewelry during their wedding day. "In nations, such as India, a wedding is considered a huge affair" ("Jewelry Market Size", 2019) as a result of "having a lot of rituals and functions. Growing expenditure on wedding functions is expected to positively impact market growth. Women are focusing on the latest trends of necklaces, hairpins, and bangles. The availability of customization of such products is an important factor that is apt to fuel market growth" ("Jewelry Market Size"). Marriages immensely benefit the global jewelry market by eliciting more sales of bridal jewelry products. The ineffable love for jewelry products is a sensation that is not limited to only being experienced by women. Men also inexplicably love jewellery products and are even keen on flaunting jewelry products to be perceived as fashionable. Furthermore, "Men and women both wear rings, plain gold chains, and anklets as a fashion statement" ("Jewelry Market Size", 2019). Unsurprisingly, "the usage of gold chains and necklaces is no longer limited to weddings and functions". Moreover, jewellery products are not limited to only being gifted during weddings. "Earrings and bracelets for instance are gifted on various occasions or events, such birthdays" ("Jewelry Market Size").

Adult collectors are not the only demographic cohort who are driving action figure industry growth. Children also relish adding action figures of fictional characters to their emerging action figure collections. Fortunately for toy companies, people who grow up collecting action figure from a young age are apt to continue this habit of procuring action figure as adults. The action figure industry is poised to have a robust and lucrative future.

Technological breakthroughs are being made in the growing field of robotics for the prospect of rendering robots intelligent and autonomous. "The current focus of the industry tends to be on giving robots vision. Specifically, the rise of machine vision technology. This, combined with the advancement of the Internet of Things, gives robots the ability to process images and understand what they are 'seeing'. As this technology continues to proliferate, the next step is giving robots the ability to apply these things to learn on their own. For example, a robot can currently be programmed to pick up and place items, but in the future, it will combine machine vision with machine learning to figure out its own programming through trial and error" (Davids, 2018). By leveraging machine learning and machine vision robots will be capable of seamlessly learning anything complex. In the coming decades, advancements will be made in the areas of machine learning, machine vision, deep learning, artificial intelligence, and robotic mobility. In the coming years, the robotics industry will also give rise to more collaborative robots which will work alongside human laborers. "This reflects the focus of the industry towards creating robots that are simpler, easier to program, and able to integrate into current processes. To make these robots safe, there is a large market for safety sensors that ensure humans can work alongside the robots without any significant risks. Machine vision will contribute to this as well, offering robots the ability to 'see' when someone is in their workspace" (Davids, 2018). Human will work alongside collaborative robots in order to be able to complete tasks more efficiently and productivity through sequential collaboration efforts. The future of the robots industry is not limited to advancements in collaborative robots, such as hand guiding collaborative robots or "speed and separation" ("What are the," 2019) collaborative robots. "The future will continue to enhance technologies, such as 3D embedded vision, multispectral, and hyperspectral imaging. This, combined with artificial intelligence and deep learning, will empower industrial robots to improve themselves and keep pace with the human workers around them" (Davids, 2018). In the coming decades, robots will have the capability to outperform human laborers in every facet a job as they become more technologically advanced. Robots will not only be able to teach themselves how to perform cumbersome tasks, but will also be able to incessantly work without taking breaks nor making errors. Robots can also work around the clock without succumbing to fatigue and can also work in a lights out environment with air conditioning. Beyond collaborative robots becoming more prevalently leveraged by companies in the pending years, industrial robots will also be utilized more by companies in the coming years. "The industrial robot industry for instance is expected to grow 175% over the next nine years and will result in more competition and innovation" (Davids, 2018).

As the technology behind cryptocurrencies like bitcoin and Facebook's Libra, open software platforms like Ethereum, and disruptive companies like Ripple, it’s too important to ignore. In this revelatory book, Don Tapscott, the bestselling author of Wikinomics, and his son, blockchain expert Alex Tapscott, bring us a brilliantly researched, highly readable, and essential book about the technology driving the future of the economy. Blockchain is the ingeniously simple, revolutionary protocol that allows transactions to be simultaneously anonymous and secure by maintaining a tamperproof public ledger of value. Though it’s best known as the technology that drives bitcoin and other digital currencies, it also has the potential to go far beyond currency, to record virtually everything of value to humankind, from birth and death certificates to insurance claims, land titles, and even votes. Blockchain is also essential to understand if you’re an artist who wants to make a living off your art, a consumer who wants to know where that hamburger meat really came from, an immigrant who’s tired of paying big fees to send money home to your loved ones, or an entrepreneur looking for a new platform to build a business. And those examples are barely the tip of the iceberg. As with major paradigm shifts that preceded it, blockchain technology will create winners and losers. This book shines a light on where it can lead us in the next decade and beyond.

Download or read book Blockchain Chicken Farm written by Xiaowei Wang and published by FSG Originals. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice "A brilliant and empathetic guide to the far corners of global capitalism." --Jenny Odell, author of How to Do Nothing From FSGO x Logic: stories about rural China, food, and tech that reveal new truths about the globalized world In Blockchain Chicken Farm, the technologist and writer Xiaowei Wang explores the political and social entanglements of technology in rural China. Their discoveries force them to challenge the standard idea that rural culture and people are backward, conservative, and intolerant. Instead, they find that rural China has not only adapted to rapid globalization but has actually innovated the technology we all use today. From pork farmers using AI to produce the perfect pig, to disruptive luxury counterfeits and the political intersections of e-commerce villages, Wang unravels the ties between globalization, technology, agriculture, and commerce in unprecedented fashion. Accompanied by humorous “Sinofuturist” recipes that frame meals as they transform under new technology, Blockchain Chicken Farm is an original and probing look into innovation, connectivity, and collaboration in the digitized rural world. FSG Originals × Logic dissects the way technology functions in everyday lives. The titans of Silicon Valley, for all their utopian imaginings, never really had our best interests at heart: recent threats to democracy, truth, privacy, and safety, as a result of tech’s reckless pursuit of progress, have shown as much. We present an alternate story, one that delights in capturing technology in all its contradictions and innovation, across borders and socioeconomic divisions, from history through the future, beyond platitudes and PR hype, and past doom and gloom. Our collaboration features four brief but provocative forays into the tech industry’s many worlds, and aspires to incite fresh conversations about technology focused on nuanced and accessible explorations of the emerging tools that reorganize and redefine life today.
Download or read book The Long Tail written by Chris Anderson and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2006-07-11 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when the bottlenecks that stand between supply and demand in our culture go away and everything becomes available to everyone? "The Long Tail" is a powerful new force in our economy: the rise of the niche. As the cost of reaching consumers drops dramatically, our markets are shifting from a one-size-fits-all model of mass appeal to one of unlimited variety for unique tastes. From supermarket shelves to advertising agencies, the ability to offer vast choice is changing everything, and causing us to rethink where our markets lie and how to get to them. Unlimited selection is revealing truths about what consumers want and how they want to get it, from DVDs at Netflix to songs on iTunes to advertising on Google. However, this is not just a virtue of online marketplaces; it is an example of an entirely new economic model for business, one that is just beginning to show its power. After a century of obsessing over the few products at the head of the demand curve, the new economics of distribution allow us to turn our focus to the many more products in the tail, which collectively can create a new market as big as the one we already know. The Long Tail is really about the economics of abundance. New efficiencies in distribution, manufacturing, and marketing are essentially resetting the definition of what's commercially viable across the board. If the 20th century was about hits, the 21st will be equally about niches.

Download or read book World Development Report 2019 written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2018-10-31 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work is constantly reshaped by technological progress. New ways of production are adopted, markets expand, and societies evolve. But some changes provoke more attention than others, in part due to the vast uncertainty involved in making predictions about the future. The 2019 World Development Report will study how the nature of work is changing as a result of advances in technology today. Technological progress disrupts existing systems. A new social contract is needed to smooth the transition and guard against rising inequality. Significant investments in human capital throughout a person’s lifecycle are vital to this effort. If workers are to stay competitive against machines they need to train or retool existing skills. A social protection system that includes a minimum basic level of protection for workers and citizens can complement new forms of employment. Improved private sector policies to encourage startup activity and competition can help countries compete in the digital age. Governments also need to ensure that firms pay their fair share of taxes, in part to fund this new social contract. The 2019 World Development Report presents an analysis of these issues based upon the available evidence.
