Robotics Market Analysis

The Robotics Industry is expected to register a CAGR of 20.4% during the forecast period.

  • Robots continue to gain popularity for their productivity and profitability, especially driven by the automation policies and the Industry 4.0 initiatives globally. According to the World Robotics report presented by the International Federation of Robotics, operatinal stock of industrial robots is expected to reach 3788 thousand units by 2021.
  • The market is further expanding into new territories, with small- and medium-sized industries adopting automation, thereby creating demand for robots. The availability of small-capacity and cost-effective solutions from major providers is enabling the penetration of robots into industries.
  • Warehouses are susceptible to accidents. According to OSHA, 'Slips, trips, and falls constitute the majority of general industry accidents. They cause 15% of all accidental deaths, and are second only to motor vehicles as a cause of fatalities." Robots in warehouses assist with alleviating workers of the inhuries caused by physical fatigue. Many of these machines are specifically designed to lift heavy objects.
  • The spread of COVID-19 has positively impacted the market. This is because companies are using robots to increase social distancing and reduce the number of staff that have to physically come to work. Robots are also being used to perform roles workers cannot do at home. For instance, Walmart is using robots to scrub its floors.Robots in South Korea have been used to measure temperatures and distribute hand sanitiser.

Robotics Industry Overview

The robotics market is highly competitive and consists of several major players. In terms of market share, few of the major players currently dominate the market. These major players with a prominent share in the market are focusing on expanding their customer base across foreign countries. These companies are leveraging on strategic collaborative initiatives to increase their market share and increase their profitability.

  • March 2020 - UVD Robots is making robots that are able to disinfect patient rooms and operating theaters in hospitals. Each robot is a mobile array of powerful short wavelength UVC lights that emit enough energy to eliminate the DNA or RNA of any microorgamism.
  • January 2020 - Scientists have created the world's first living, self-healing robots -- Xenobots, using stem cells from frogs. As biological machines, xenobots are more environmentally friendly and safer for human health.The xenobots could potentially be used toward a host of tasks, according to the study, which was partially funded by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency
  • August 2019 - The European Commission-funded EUR 3 million SHERO (Self HEaling soft RObotics) project led by the Free University of Brussels (VUB) and the University of Cambridge, is developing a new generation of robots that can 'self-heal' its jelly-like robotic arms.
