Service robots are the robots that perform multiple tasks such as automatic floor mopping, dishwashing, lawn mowing and many more for humans apart from the industrial application. These are the fully autonomous systems that have the ability to carry out the services with or without human assistance. They are used in industries and for domestic purpose assisting human in performing duties which are repetitive and difficult for humans to perform. Moreover they are used to perform tasks that are repetitive, dangerous, dull and dirty. The service robotics is segmented into professional and service robots. The professional robots are used for commercial purpose whereas personal robots are used for domestic uses.

“service robotics market was valued at US$5.57 bn in 2014, and is expected to reach US$22.5 bn by 2021, growing at a CAGR of 18.8% from 2015 to 2021”

Increasing demand for service robots in defense is one of the important factors driving the service robotics market. Use of service robots in defense is likely to decrease the number of death casualties during war. Most used service robots in defense are unmanned aerial vehicles, and unmanned ground vehicles. Additionally, rapid industrialization is also acting as an important driver in this market. Service robots works faster than humans thus, reducing the work time and increases work efficiency. They are used to lift heavy parts, welding of automobiles, helps in painting and many more in industries. The service robotics market is also driven by the increasing investment in research and development. The service robots are used in carrying out various complex tasks that are difficult for humans to carry out in the research labs.

Growing Factor:

North America held the largest market size for service robotics market. The market in North America is growing at a CAGR of 17.9% during the forecast period. One of the important drivers of this market is the increasing use of service robots in defense sectors. Moreover, in North America professional service robots held the largest market share in 2014 In addition, the defense sector held the largest market share of 15.6% followed by health care segment in 2014. However, high cost associated with development is acting as one of the major restraint in this market. Asia Pacific is the fastest growing market and the growth can be attributed to the growing economies in the region such as China, India, Japan, South Korea and Australia among others.

Professional Robots and Defense Industry to Retain Leading Positions in Respective Areas

The markets for professional and personal service robots are the two major segments of the global service robotics products market. Among the two, the professional robots market occupied the topmost position with a share of 66.10% in the global market. Analysts projects this market segment to witness further development at a CAGR of 18.60% during the period of 2015-2021 on account of sturdy rise in industrialization and automation across the globe.
