“Demand Across Defense Sector to Supplement Non-Industrial Robots Sales”

Robots with the advancing technology, witness high adoption across various end-use verticals over the period. The defense sector creates high growth opportunities for non-industrial robots as they ease out difficult military tasks.

For instance, the use of robots to spy, deliver goods and services, rescue operations, robot dogs for search missions, and others. Such factors augment the sales of non-industrial robots.

Further, the use of sensors, autonomy, navigation/control systems, and energy/propulsion systems, among others, assists military personnel to accomplish the mission efficiently. Owing to such factor military is spending highly on non-industrial robots.

• For illustration, in 2021, about 17 military departments and agencies funded about US$ 7.5 billion for UxV technologies. Of the total funding, about 87% was from the Air Force, Army, and Navy.

Based on the data, non-industrial robot manufacturers have immense growth opportunities with the growing penetration of technology across the defense sector and surging military expenditure.

“High-Cost Coupled with Dearth of Skilled Professionals: A challenge to be Bridged”

The cost of robots and their maintenance affect the growth trajectory of the market. Further, government efforts to reduce unemployment and boost the economy also make the use of robots debatable. Technology is a double edge sword hence, robots have both positive and negative aspects. They enhance production and profit margins by fulfilling the requirements. Robots also require proper maintenance and infrastructure to work efficiently, which adds extra cost to end-users. Also, the dearth of professionals to manage robots effectively restrain their adoption, especially across emerging economies. Such factors hamper non-industrial robot sales.

Country-wise Insights

What are the Factors Driving Non-Industrial Robots Demand Across the US?

As engineers and developers search for new use cases for automation technology, non-industrial robotics remains a relatively nascent market. Healthcare is one of the industries with the fastest growth rate, and non-industrial robots are witnessing diverse applications for both diagnostic and treatment purposes.

For instance, non-industrial robots are being used in minimally invasive surgeries to improve patient care outcomes. Further, surgeons who specialize in robotic surgeries use the devices as tools to make more precise cuts or movements that are difficult for human hands to replicate.

Other than the therapeutical use of non-industrial robots, they are also employed for the effective functioning of the medical record department (MRD), to establish centralized MRD. It also helps in laboratory processes and R&D work.

Virtual operation theatres are gaining traction in medical education and training. It also streamlines the outpatient department's routine work and reduces total turnaround time which is essential for any hospital's performance assessment. The aforementioned factors are offering immense growth opportunities for non-industrial robots in the healthcare industry.

However, the use of non-industrial robots in healthcare is only high in the US, and other economies have low adoption as compared to the US. Thus, the US market is highly lucrative for non-industrial robots.

Why is the Indian Non-Industrial Robots Market Expected to Be Extremely Productive?

India is among the top countries that have a flourishing agricultural sector. The agriculture sector in India is anticipated to be valued at US$ 24.0 billion by 2025. The mushrooming agricultural sector in India gains the government's as well as investors' attention in order to increase productivity by investing in agri-tech growth and the launch of various projects and schemes.

• For instance, for agriculture projects based on cutting-edge technologies such as blockchain, GIS technology, artificial intelligence, remote sensing, drones, robots, and others, the Indian government has launched the Digital Agriculture Mission for 2021–25.
• Under this mission, in 2022, the Indian government introduced Kisan Drones for utilizing it for digitizing land records, spraying insecticides & nutrients, tackling locust onslaughts, and crop assessment, among others.

Hence, the growing agricultural sector coupled with government initiatives towards agri-tech offer ample growth opportunities to the manufacturers of non-industrial robots. Also, with technological advancement and R&D, robot tractors, robots for fruit picking, and for other agricultural task handling, increase the overall production capacity of the current agriculture sector.
