- A review of the history of the robotics industry, and of the six basic types of robots: industrial, domestic service, professional service, security, space, and military
- Examination of the basic technology and components (e.g., power supplies, end effectors) that are required on all types of robots
- Discussion of the broader economic, national policy, and industrial development issues that support, and in some cases, impede the adoption of robotic technology
- A developmental perspective of the robotics industry, as documented by its patent history
- Comprehensive company profiles of major players in the industry.
Report Scope
Robotics: Technologies and Global Markets provides both a review of recent key developments in robotics and a forecast that examines the industry from the perspective of robot makers and their traditional and prospective end users. The study itself is divided into eight chapters followed by an appendix. Chapters One through Five focus on the markets for robots and present the study’s demand forecasts. Chapters Six and Seven, respectively, describe basic and advanced robotic components and systems. Chapter Eight is a patent analysis that includes names and titles of more than 700 patents referencing robots that have been issued since May 1, 2011. Abstracts of key patents, since the beginning of the industry, offer an historical perspective. The Appendix contains names, contact information, and brief descriptions of the major academic, government and commercial stakeholders in the broader robotics enterprise. A Summary Table with an accompanying chart and 77 additional tables, most of which present forecast data, round out the presentation.
