COVID-19 to Affect Growth Positively Backed by High Demand from Hospitals
The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic has surged the demand for collaborative and humanoid robots across the globe, especially from the industrial and healthcare sectors. These robots are proving to be very helpful in hospitals and clinics for providing contact-free services. Hence, several manufacturers are investing hefty amounts of money in research and development activities to introduce novel robotic sensors. We are offering extensive reports to help you better understand the current scenario of the market.
Drivers & Restraints-
Need for Safe & Smooth Operations in Warehouses to Spur Growth
Nowadays, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are being increasingly used in multiple warehouses worldwide. They are equipped with innovative software solutions and robotic sensors to better understand the delivery inventory and environment of the warehouses. Some of the most commonly used sensors in these robots are angel sensors, position sensors, and ultrasonic sensors. These robot sensors aid in generating accurate data on navigation direction, 3D orientation, gripper angle, and lift position in order to deliver safe and efficient operations. However, these sensors are not always accurate in capturing data from remote or distant locations. This factor may hinder the robotic sensors market growth in the near future.
Segment-
Proximity Segment to Grow Rapidly Owing to High Usage in Object Detection
Based on type, the proximity sensor segment generated 23.3% in terms of robotic sensors market share in 2019. This segment is anticipated to earn the largest share throughout the forthcoming years backed by their rising usage in the detection of objects present in the sensors’ field, as well as their cost-effectiveness.
