#2) Internet Of Things And Mobile-Connected Smart Objects:
Since the past few years, Internet of Things has stealthily captured a huge market in Industrial and Consumer Worlds. Usually referred as “Smart Objects”, the fundamental concept of the technology is based upon Human to Machine communication, augmented by advanced computing and sensors.
The IoT architecture allows the users to remotely monitor the object through a software application, even allows to create an environment for evaluation and analysis of the real-time condition.
According to Bain, B2B IoT segment, by 2020, will generate $300 billion; the figure also includes $85 billion generated by the industrial sector. Most industries used IoT application for predictive maintenance, inventory management, and employee communication.
Besides, the global IoT market is expected to grow at a 19.92% Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR). The major growth will be witnessed in these applications: Wearables, Smart Home, Smart Grids, Smart Farming, Connected Car, Connected Health, and Supply Chain.
#3) Accelerated Mobile Pages:
Where a Smartphone opens a vast world, it also has its limitations, from storage to battery and performance to connectivity in comparison with computer. Due to these limitations, Smartphones consume more time to load a website, which is meant for desktop.
Search engine like Google has introduced AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) that allows users to load a web page quickly.
What Is AMP?
In the era of Mobile Commerce, AMP is a great initiative to provide better user experience to mobile users and maximize engagement. It is an open source library from which users can create appealing web pages and link it as per the requirement.
#4) Virtual Reality And Augmented Reality Apps:
VR and AR are at nascent stage, mainly because most of the companies have not been able to add value to the technology other than entertainment or appeal.
But still it is alive and all set to enjoy a long life further because technologists find huge potential in AR and VR applications.
Some of top apps that are recognized in this segment are YouTube and YouTube VR for Google Daydream and Facebook 360 for Samsung Gear. Next VR is forefront in live broadcasts, enabling users to live sports, music, and more.

The technology close almost all gaps for errors, and so widely used in financial and healthcare services. Below are top 10 blockchain applications:
- Asset Management
- Insurance claiming process
- Cross border payments
- Contract making in property business
- Car-key to gain access
- Smart appliances
- Supply chain sensors
- Healthcare record maintenance
- Personal identification
- Passport and certificates
A mobile app based on blockchain technology is extremely helpful in granting access and authority to the right person, provided your software development company is technically sound and reliable. The technology is expected to witness a huge surge in 2018 and beyond, mainly because it is close to impossible (at least for now) to tamper records.
