The whole point of creating robots was to allow human beings a chance to share their enormous workload. Today, they can not only do various jobs faster, but also far better. A lot of industries consider them the perfect employees because they have an endless reserve of energy, they don’t need to take a break in between tasks and they can finish their work with a lot for precision.
In fact, there are some industries that can’t even fathom the idea of continuing on without the ever available aid of robots. Let’s have a look at the top 4.
1. Space Exploration
Robots in space used to science fiction once upon a time but not so much anymore. These especially created, state of the art robotics, give astronauts the chance to explore and view space in un-imaginable ways. Remote Manipulator System (RMS) and Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) are the most common types of robots used during space missions. Remotely Operated Vehicles are unmanned spacecraft that can orbit freely and even land (if it makes contact with an outer space surface) to explore the terrain. Both robots are used to capture data and conduct tasks which would be near impossible for human astronauts.
2. Commercial Agriculture
Robots have long been introduced to the world of commercial agriculture which was once ruled by man alone. These robots get the work done faster, last longer and are more efficient than human being in agriculture. Robots make difficult agricultural tasks very simple. Today, some robots can be taught to navigate through farmland and even harvest crops completely on their own. Robots can also be considered the best aid to horticulturists as they can be used for pruning, weeding, spraying pesticide and examining the growth of plants. Agricultural robots help farmers ensure that the crop comes out healthy every time.
3. Remote Minimal and Non-Invasive Surgery
Surgery has really come a long way since robots were introduced in the field. Today, surgical robots can perform unbelievable acts as they are guided by human surgeons sitting on a console. The movements of the surgeon are translated by a computer situated on the console and then performed on the patient by the robot. Surgical robots have advanced so much in fact that today the surgeon doesn’t even have to be in the same region to perform the procedure. The operation could be conducted from the opposite end of the globe. Robotic surgery has definitely improved the limitations of minimally invasive surgery. One of the most popular surgical robots is called da Vinci Surgical System, which is primarily used for gynecologic, colorectal, prostate, throat cancer surgeries, bariatric surgery, angioplasty and even bypass surgery.
4. Car Production
The automobile building industry is the biggest user of robots. The high powered machines used to make cars have mechanical arms with tools, wheels and sensors that make them perfect for assembly lines. Most manufacturing companies prefer robots because they can help reduce manufacturing cost and they can perform tough jobs that would be impossible for humans to do. Added benefit of manufacturing robots is that they can make the process a lot safer for the human workers. Automotive industry robots can perform a variety of tasks which include (but not are limited to) painting & welding and installation. Today, robots are considered an irreplaceable part of the car production process.
