Growth in robotics is driven by many factors, including the demand forincreasingly sophisticated, autonomous systems for security and defense, advancedmanufacturing, logistics, health, home maintenance, and interactive entertainment. Meanwhile,the supply side is driven by decreasing cost and increasing availability of sensors, computing,and information storage.
