Growth Opportunities in the Global Robotics Industry

The global robotics industry experienced good growth during 2007-2012, but growth is expected to moderate over the next five years and reach an estimated $38

billion by 2018. Growth is expected to be driven by robotic usage in education with artificial intelligence, prospective huge demand for robots used in restoration work at disaster sites such as Fukushima, rescue robots, and growth in robotic toys.

Lucintel has identified that high prices, highly technological and complex features, human dependency, and ethical issues regarding complete automation are the major growth challenges. Industrial automation, demographic changes, product quality improvement, operational efficiency, execution of repetitive work, and ability to work in risky environments are the industry major drivers.
