DTechEx has recently released “Mobile Robotics in Logistics, Warehousing and Delivery 2022-2042”, a market research report exploring the technical, regulatory, and market factors that are shaping the emerging industry around logistics mobile robotics. The mobile robotics industry has grown quickly in recent years, spurred on by advances in robotics technology, autonomous navigation, and artificial intelligence (AI), and may efficiently and cost-effectively alleviate many of the labor issues that are currently threatening the global logistics industry.
Mobile robotics, as covered in the new IDTechEx report, can be used to automate a range of logistics operations, including material handling, material picking, long-haul distribution, and last mile delivery. Some applications of mobile robotics, including material transporting using automated guided vehicles (AGVs), are already mature industries attracting billions of dollars in annual revenue, whereas others, such as fully autonomous drone delivery, are still emerging and may only reach a large scale of commercialization after this decade. Despite the market stage, mature or emerging, each market is so active that attracts millions or even billions of dollars of investments every year. In addition, recently a number of mobile robotic start-ups have been acquired by technology or engineering giants; notable examples include the acquisitions by Toyota, Amazon, Teradyne, Apple and ABB, indicating their further steps towards entering the logistic mobile robotic industry.
