About The Technology

(Emerging Robotics)
• Soon robots will have a very big impact on the
consumer market
• They are the next big thing after the invention
of computers
• They will be used in both industries and
houses. Like “Sarcos” is a robot that will be
used in the industries and “I-ROBOT" that will
be used in the houses.
Where are we in this technology right now ?

• This technology is limited to industries and


mostly used for manufacturing.
• They are not much intelligent and perform
monotonous tasks.
• Universities and companies are spending
millions of dollar’s in researches for making
robots smart enough to make autonomous
decisions.
What are the advantages of this technology
• Quality:
Robots have the capacity to dramatically improve product quality. Applications are
performed with precision and high accuracy every time.

• Production:
With robots, throughput speeds increase, which directly impacts production. Because
robots have the ability to work at a constant speed without pausing for breaks, sleep,
vacations, they have the potential to produce more than a human worker.

• Safety:
Robots increase workplace safety. Workers are moved to supervisory roles, so they no
longer have to perform dangerous applications in hazardous settings.

• Savings:
Robots also offer untiring performance which saves valuable time. Their movements are
always exact, so less material is wasted. Their maintenance is cheaper than human workers.
Complications this technology can create

• Ethical issues
– It will be hard to program I robot with ethical
rules.
• Unemployment issues
– A large amount of people will be unemployed as
robots started doing their job.
• Social Issues
– As robots become more intelligent the to be
socially adjustable with our society.
