Robotics Market Size
©Peter Morgan 4
• Worldwide spending on robotics and related services will hit $135 billion in 2019 – IDC Report
• http://fortune.com/2016/02/24/robotics-market-multi-billion-boom/
What is Robotics?
• Intelligence = Agents that learn from and adapt to their environments while
setting and achieving goals
• Robotics = Embodied intelligence with mobility
• Similar to biological systems
• Multimodal (5 senses) is goal (AGI)
• Basically everything we can do
• Software/algorithms
• Neural networks
• Deep learning
• Vision, Language (NLP), Navigation (SLAM)
• Hardware
• CPU, GPU, FPGA, ASIC
• Neuromorphic chips
• Actuators
• Cloud Enabled
• Intelligence in the cloud
• Cloud Robotics
©Peter Morgan 5
Example: Learning and doing from watching videos
• Researchers at the University of Maryland, funded by DARPA
• System that enables robots to process visual data from a series of “how to”
cooking videos on YouTube - and then cook a meal
©Peter Morgan 6
Industrial Robotics
• Manufacturing (Baxter)
• Warehousing (Amazon)
• Police/Security
• Military
• Surgery
• Drones (UAV’s)
• Self-driving cars
• Trains
• Ships
• Planes
• Underwater
©Peter Morgan 7
Consumer Robotics
©Peter Morgan 8
• Robots with friendly user interface that can understand user’s needs and
emotions
• Visual; facial emotions
• Tone of voice
• Caretaking (Carebots)
• Elderly
• Young
• EmoSpark, Echo
• Education
• Home security
• Housekeeping
• Companionship
• Artificial limbs
• Exoskeletons
Consumer Robot Market Drivers
• Barriers to entry have never been lower
• Cheaper and improved sensors
• Connected cloud robotics
• Silicon Valley becoming hotbed for consumer robot companies
• Aging population feeds into demand for Personal Assistant Robots
• Nearly 100 Million Consumer Robots Will be Sold During the Next 5
Years – Tractica, Nov 2015
http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20151123005875/en/100-Million-

• Increased efficiencies in every market space
• Industry 4.0 (steam, electricity, digital, intelligence)
• Human-Robot collaboration
• Space colonization (Mars)
©Peter Morgan 13
Threats, Challenges, Issues
• Technological Unemployment
• Replace some jobs but create new ones?
• What will these be?
• Widen the inequality gap
• New economic paradigm needed
• Basic Income Guarantee?
• Safety
• Existential risk?
• Organisations
• Legal + Ethical issues
• New laws
• Machine rights
• Personhood
©Peter Morgan 14
Predictions
• More robots (exponential increase)
• More automation (everywhere)
• Endgame is to automate all work
• > 50% will be automated by 2035
• Loosely autonomous agents (2015)
• Semi-automomous agents (2020)
• Fully autonomous agents (2025)
• Above Human Level General Intelligence (2029?)
• Cyborgs (has started – biohackers, implants)
• Self-aware? (personhood)
• Ethics (more debate)
• Regulation (safety issues)
