1. Fields of application
The term "industrial" robot is somewhat misleading. In fact, what people call industrial robots are robot arms used in manufacturing. Opponents argue that service robots have everything else besides manufacturing.
2. Earn money
Industrial robots have been around since the 70s. If they are still here today, it is because they have now found a way to make money. On the other hand, as a mature profession, profit margins are low, so differentiating the company is a challenge.
3. Market potential
All experts agree that the huge potential of service robots has increased, while the rate of increase in industrial robots is relatively low, and the fluctuations of industrial robots depend more on the state of the economy.
4. Market data
The best source of data we have come across about robotics careers is the International Robotics Annual Statement prepared by the International Federation of Robotics (IFR). Since 2010, the IFR has divided its presentation into two parts, one for industrial robots and the other for service robots. It is clear from these two statements that the types of data available for analysis vary from occupation to occupation. Because the industrial robotics skills occupation has been consolidated over the years, the data is much more accurate than the fragmented service robotics skill areas.
For both professions, the data is primarily about the robots themselves, not about the peripherals or integrations around them, which is a significant part of the lost information.
5. Policy customers
Industrial robots are primarily purchased by manufacturers and dominate the automotive industry, although this is being carried out at a high speed. Industrial robot skills are a typical B2B way of selling. Moreover, the purchase decision is made based on the ROI calculation.
The types of customers with service robot skills are becoming more diverse. They may be makers, military collectives, hospitals, or even individuals. The resolution to buy is varied, and sometimes the price cannot be expressed.
6. Prime countries
The largest producer of industrial robots is Japan, with giants such as Fanuc, Yaskawa-Motoman, Kawasaki, OTC Daihen, etc. There are also significant players in Europe, first and foremost ABB, Kuka and Universal Robots. In the United States, there are Adept and other companies that are not so dominant in the market.
When it comes to service robots, the situation is quite the opposite, and United States is clearly ahead. The United States approach is not to make humanoid robots, but to work on robots that work on an application. In the recent Fukushima disaster, United States robots were the most useful reality, which tells us that we are on the right path. Universities surrounding MIT, Stanford, and Carnegie Mellon universities have now formed robotics industry clusters, many of which are made up of these arrangements, some of which are now established participants.
7. Be open to the world
Industrial robotics skills are very proprietary. All controllers speak different languages and are generally turned off. This is sometimes the case, even at the communication protocol level. Although with the development of ROS-Industrial, even industrial robots have begun to open up, which makes the development of third-party applications more and more cumbersome.
Open source solutions are about to reach a tipping point in the skills of service robots. The best candidate to become a realistic standard is the former Willow Garage's ROS. Being able to access tools developed by an exponentially growing community of developers will greatly accelerate the development of service robotics skills.
8. Use skills
This is similar to the previous concept. Industrial robots utilize robot-specific hardware and software.
The service robotics profession does a better job of using off-the-shelf skills that are less expensive to use and require less customization. Embedded electronics, networking skills and communication protocols, including sensors such as Microsoft's Kinect, are used in service robots. This reclaim of a wide range of components accelerates development and reduces the cost of robotic solutions.
9. Channel maturity
We have installed adaptive grippers in both service and industrial robots. It is very simple to install it on an industrial robot, and it is generally very stable and the requirements are clear. Service bots aren't that simple. In this regard, service robotics skills are able to learn from the structure and arrangement of the industrial aspect.
10. Cool stuff
Yes, service robots are much cooler than industrial robots. Children enter the field of robotics not to make industrial weapons, but to enter the field of active mobile robots. That being said, "the service robot profession does not increase because it is handsome, but because it solves problems." However, it is still generally the "cool" element that helps service robots attract young talents, which seems to be becoming more and more difficult in industrial robots.
