Service Robotics Market Dynamics and Trends 

The growing demand for services robots for domestic applications, development in computer-aided systems, IoT and engineering technologies, rising demand for mobile robotic solutions across logistics, and high demand from military and healthcare sectors are the key drivers for the market growth. Increasing demand for service robots in domestic appliances across various regions is one of the major drivers of the global service robotics market. In addition, the demand for service robotics for varied applications including entertainment, training, and individual applications will also significantly drive its demand in the forecast period.

Demand for services robotics is increasingly being used by military applicants in several countries across the world. Military laboratories around the planet are focusing on the development of compact and autonomous robots for use in welfare. In 2016, the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) declared to invest nearly US$ 3 billion in the development of new military technologies, which include automated technologies and combat robot warriors.

High capital investment, lack of awareness, and scarcity of investment by the companies are the market restraints that are hampering market growth. High capital investment is required to start a robotics company and high R&D funds are required by the companies to sustain the market. One of the most challenging activities in Robotics is innovating new designs and new applications for robots and robotic systems. New fields of applications are characterized by specific requirements that existing robot solutions may not be able to fulfill and therefore specific investigations and design activities are required.

Service Robotics Market Segmentation Analysis

Based on components, the global market for service robotics is broadly segmented as sensors, actuators, control systems, software, and others. Among these, software accounted for the largest market share of about 32.5%. The software architecture is based upon the Roblet-Technology, which is a powerful medium for robots. This technology introduces the possibility to develop, compile and execute an application on one workstation. Improved Natural Language Processing, integration of social cues in HRI, emotional state understanding, interaction with multiple agents, and user-friendly design. Improved Natural Language Processing, integration of social cues in HRI, emotional state understanding, interaction with multiple agents, and user-friendly design. The LEGO Mindstorms program belonged to the higher quality products offering software environments that reach well into high-tech robotics.

Based on the operating environment, the global market for service robotics is broadly segmented as aerial, land, and underwater. The underwater service robotics market is estimated to reach a market value of $YY million by 2026 from an initial market value of $940.51 million in 2018. The market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 9.99% in the forecasted period 2019-2026. Underwater robots are being developed for various applications ranging from inspection to maintenance and cleaning of submerged surfaces and constructions. Underwater robots have shown significant attention through the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010. These robots are capable to inspect sites that are inaccessible to humans.

Based on type, the global market for service robotics is broadly segmented as personal application and professional application. Personal application is further classified into research robotics, domestic robotics, entertainment robotics, and others. Professional application is again divided into defense and security, field robotics, medical assisting robotics, and logistics & UAV drones.
Based on Verticals, the global market for service robotics is broadly segmented as government, logistics & transportation, agriculture & mining, healthcare, military & defense, and others.
