Challenges
The concept of human-powered medical equipment is still in the developmental stage. Researchers and scientists from University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) and Michigan State University are developing these equipment, which are estimated to be available for commercial use by 2030. Moreover, various other medical device manufacturers, such as, Cordant Health Solutions, Legacy Medical Services, LLC, Omega Laboratories, Inc., and Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc., among others, are estimated to invest in the market.
June, 2020: UCLA designed wearable-tech gloves that can translate sign language into speech in real time.
May, 2017: UCLA and University of Connecticut scientists design super capacitor that could make pacemakers battery-free. These pacemakers operate using charged particles, or ions, from fluids in the human body.
December, 2016: Michigan State University engineering researchers have created a new device, known as a nanogenerator, to harvest energy from human motion. It is a film-like device that can be folded to create more power.
In 2023, market players might incur losses due to huge gap in currency translation followed by contracting revenues, shrinking profit margins & cost pressure on logistics and supply chain.
Controlling Inflation has become the first priority for global economies from last quarter of 2022 and to be followed in 2023. With skewed economic situations, rise in interest rate by governments to control spending and inflation, spiked oil and gas prices, high inflation, geo-political issues including U.S. & China trade war, Russia-Ukraine conflict to intensify the global economic issues.
The interest rates in the U.S. may be less sensitive in 2023 as compared to 2022; sigh of relief for businesses. Positive business sentiments, healthy business balance sheets, growth in construction spending (private construction value in 2022 stood at $1,429.2 billion, 11.7 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $1,279.5 billion spent in 2021, Residential construction in 2022 was $899.1 billion, up by 13.3 percent (±2.1 percent) from $793.7 billion in 2021, non-residential construction touched $530.1 billion, 9.1 percent (±1.0 percent) above the $485.8 billion in 2021.) showcases minimal impact of recession in the country.
Similarly, spiked spending in the European and major Asia economics including, India, China & Japan to showcase less impact on the global demand.
