In fact, there are many similarities between the robot industry and the computer industry. At first, computers were mainly used in scientific research institutions and large companies. It was not until the advent of microprocessors and a relatively simple basic programming environment in the 1970s. In addition, the cost of the whole machine dropped sharply, and the personal computer slowly entered the stage of history.

But now the cooperative robot is similar to the personal computer which just started 40 years ago. Although there are many imperfections, it represents a new beginning. Starting from the cooperative robot, ordinary people will get more and more contact with advanced robot technology and benefit from it.

In the future, to a large extent, the application stage of collaborative robots will still be based on the b-end market; with the development of lightweight and low-cost products, it is expected to enter the C-end market to serve families and individuals. At present, its landing forms are diversified, and small and medium-sized enterprises can gradually realize the transformation to the world from the national characteristics.

At present, the application mode of cooperative robot is gradually changing from executive layer to interactive service. The cooperative robot began to go out of the laboratory, started from some enterprises, carried out pilot application, gradually extended to small and medium-sized enterprises and service fields, and finally popularized to the application of specific subdivision scene field.

With the continuous deepening of machine learning, the intelligent degree of robot is constantly improved. It can not only replace physical labor, but also replace part of mental work, so as to realize intelligent.

In addition to the automotive and electronic robot application markets, industrial robots will enter other industrial application markets in the future, such as medicine, food, textile, furniture manufacturing and other industries. For the majority of small and medium-sized enterprises in these fields, the cooperative robots with relatively low price, small size and strong flexibility are more popular than the large and expensive traditional industrial robots.

Based on the above judgment, it is predicted that in the next five years, the growth rate of the shipment volume of the collaborative robot market will be faster than that of the traditional industrial robot. At that time, the scene of the close cooperation between the collaborative robot and the human will gradually become a beautiful landscape in daily life.
