The report also outlines the key trends that are emerging in the market, which are expected to contribute to the growth of the market during the forecast period.

The increased R&D in robotics has resulted in a focus on the creation of robots with more artificial intelligence. Robotic manufacturers are trying to develop more humanoid robots that have advanced technologies and can emotionally connect with humans and act as good companions. They are attempting to incorporate more artificial intelligence into robots for better human understanding capability. Many robotic companies are trying to develop and commercialize robots with high artificial intelligence.

According to the report, the development of the robotics field has led to a widening of the scope of robotic applications. Previously, household use of robotic vacuum cleaning was a major area of application for domestic/personal service robots.
