STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES

Many forecast documents deal exclusively with one kind of robot, either the type used in industrial processes or the more mobile robots used in specialized non-industrial applications.

This report is unique in that it treats the robotics industry as a whole. The report's goal is to gain and provide a commercial understanding of the entire robot industry-through research, manufacturing processes, distribution, and use-and create more than the usual snapshot of the commercial realities that only apply to a small portion of this expansive industry.

OBJECTIVES

To thoroughly define all sectors of the robot manufacturing industry-from parts through whole robots-and to present knowledgeable commercial forecasts for all sectors
To define current and emerging technologies, adding substance and promise to robot applications, and to present knowledgeable commercial forecasts for these technologies
To show which markets are consuming which technologies, and to determine if these (or other) markets hold promise for future robot investments
To provide a strategic understanding of key players in the robot industry
To present a truly global picture of the robotics industry defined by not only rigorous statistical understandings of commercial cultures, but also knowledgeable discourse concerning legal and other nation-specific environments

REASONS FOR DOING THE STUDY

Very few recent efforts can be noted that attempt to define the realities and potentials of the robot industry as a whole. This report fills that gap. It tackles not only the present and future of now ubiquitous industrial robots, but also the commercial potentials of the more esoteric robots that can walk, talk, swim, kill, and entertain.

The technologies that define both the common and not-so-common robots are, ultimately, the same. BCC, Inc. has determined it important and necessary to provide this thorough and all-encompassing look at an industry that is quickly developing meaningful relationships among its individual parts.

In addition, this study was catalyzed by obvious changes in certain sectors of the robot industry-changes closely linked to the terrorist events of 2001. The robotics industry, for the most part, took a nosedive in 2001 along with most other global industries. An important objective for this report, therefore, is to determine if (and how) the robotics industry can return to its heyday at the turn of the century, or at least back into solid profitability.

CONTRIBUTIONS OF THE STUDY AND FOR WHOM

This study contributes, of course, to the lineage of robotics industry forecasts provided by BCC. As mentioned, it is a unique contribution in that it presents a whole picture of a diverse industry.

This report, too, introduces current and new technologies peripheral but essential to the understanding of the robotics industry. Motion technologies, advances in robotic sensing, and even on-the-rise manufacturing processes are presented here usefully but summarily, as they relate to the progress of robotics applications. This report, then, will provide the reader with valuable touchstones toward deeper understandings of such technologies and processes.

Manufacturers currently using robots, those toying with the possibility of robotics adoption, and others thinking of change upgrades to current in-place systems will all benefit from the insights in this report. In addition, researchers and distributors wondering where, when, and if robotics activity will take place and continue will find purposeful and timely information in the forecasts. Consumer organizations wanting insight as to how and when their constituencies will be affected by the robotics revolution also will find here valuable information.

This report, then, is valuable for clarifying any possible investment or research interest pointing in the direction of robotics technologies.

SCOPE AND FORMAT

As mentioned, the scope of this report is all-encompassing in terms of the treatment given the individual sectors of the robotics industry. The report deals thoroughly with technology possibilities, technology restraints, emerging and near-term technologies, national and international issues and regulations, key companies and organizations, and thoughtful forecasts for technologies, applications, and industries.

The construction of this report presents all information in a logical format. The first half presents succinct narratives and general forecasts for major technological and industrial sectors, as well as global regional robotics interests and possibilities. The second half of the report divides the general topics discussed into manageable technologies, processes, and issues given rigorous statistical evaluation and provided solid commercial projections.

In short, technologies and issues are related to robot types. These types are divided into parts, which are applied to use applications. These applications are, finally, applied to industrial categories.

INFORMATION SOURCES AND METHODOLOGY

Sources for this report include government publications, refereed journal articles, survey interviews with pertinent industry members, trade publications, information from previous forecast reports, and Internet searches.

The methodology for this report includes quantitative procedures based on multiple linear regression models (for forecasts), as well as the analysis of surveys gathered from 81 researchers, manufacturers, and distributors of robotics technologies. These surveys provided valuable insight into the present conditions and future possibilities of many of the robotics technologies discussed here.

In addition, journal and trade magazines provided up-to-the-minute understandings of certain advances in robotics pursuits.
