T&M Industry in India in FY14 : Select Technologies to drive !


Writing this mail as the festival of HOLI is being celebrated in Delhi streets!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

As we approach the tapering of winter and start of Summer the thought goes to what all technologies being touted nowadays can be important to the T&M business. My submission towards that is the following may turn out important:

Cognitive Computing

Internet Of Things

Printed Electronics including 3D and Graphene


I think the M2M related concepts will transform to real products,particularly in very India specific sectors like Power,Education and Healthcare. IoT  is called as M2M because of involvement of various sensors and motors exchanging information on causes and the effects due to these changes on each other.We need to carefully see which of the real life devices can directly communicate this to other intelligently and can make "lean"  connection.Naturally the total universe will be real high and the derivative demand of T&M needed to control should be high too.

Likewise triggering the new startups based on the success of IBM Watson platform ,Cognitive Computing also can give birth to start up companies in India on design and integration as well as the concurrent engineering.All these activities will demand new age T&M having IP type platform for design and verification related needs.

Manufacturing is going to be driven by 3D printing and photolithographic methods.Similar to Semiconductor tests,like the Resistivity and Junction test we will need characterisation T&M .Manufacturing is getting lean and thin.New Designs like Graphene discovered in 2004 will impact some activity in India too,and will definitely see demand for relevant T&M in India.
