Service Robotics Market by Applications (Personal and Professional) and Regions (Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa) - Global Industry Analysis, Growth, Share, Size, Trends, and Forecast 2021 – 2028

The global service robotics market size is anticipated to register a considerable CAGR during the forecast period, 2021-2028. The growth of the market is attributed to growing instances of assisted living and to battle rising labor costs in developed countries.

Service robotics refers to a robot that operates semi-autonomously or completely autonomously to provide services that benefit humans and equipment. They remove manufacturing activities and are capable of making decisions and acting independently in real-world, uncertain situations to complete tasks. Personal service robots include vacuum cleaners and lawn mowers, along with tele and remote-presence, elder care, and entertainment robots, as well as home education and training robots. In one way or another, partial and full-service robots increase productivity. Some service robots are designed to respond and perform well in hazardous areas, while others collect and analyze data. The safety and operation of service robots have received considerable attention.

The outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic had a negative influence on the market. Manufacturing units have had to suspend output as a result of the global lockdown enforced by governments, which is likely to impede the demand for service robotics. The market is expected to quickly recover, since various industries have restarted operations as COVID instances have gradually reduced around the world.
