- The robotics market for the Asia-Pacific region reached $9.1 billion in 2015. The market should reach nearly $10.0 billion in 2016 and $11.8 billion in 2021, increasing at a CAGR of 3.6% from 2016 to 2021.
- Europe Plus as a segment for robotics reached $5.4 billion in 2015, and should reach over $5.6 billion and $7.5 billion in 2016 and 2021 respectively, increasing at a CAGR of 5.9% from 2016 to 2021.

Introduction & Scope

INTRODUCTION

STUDY GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
The goal of this study was to examine the robotics industry from the research laboratory to the replacement parts business and, based upon that analysis, forecast global and regional demand for robots between 2016 and 2021. The objective of this report is to present the findings of that study and the forecast in a series of 86 tables that present the market by region, by type of robot, by robot–user, by robot–performed task, and by category of robotic products.

REASONS FOR DOING THE STUDY
In late 2010, BCC Research noted that the robotics industry was in the early stages of a fundamental change in where and how robots would be used in the future. One signal of that change was a rise in the number of U.S. patent filings that referenced robots. A second signal was the nature of the intellectual property those patents sought to protect. A significant number focused on improving a robot's ability to spontaneously
interact with its surroundings. In other words, they represented steps toward endowing robots with situational awareness. Achieving situational awareness is the long sought after Holy Grail of robotics. A situationally aware robot can be truly autonomous, adjusting for unanticipated events that stand in the way of accomplishing a goal, much like a human. A machine capable of sharing work space with humans and
simultaneously working on the same work piece represented the opening of a new industrial era in which robots were seen less as tools and more as a co–worker. By the closing of 2015 it became clear to all those following the industry that the age of the collaborative robot had begun.
