Abstract
CONSUMER ROBOTS IN VARIOUS ROLES This issue of MCE is dedicated to consumer robots. While I thought of this theme, the first thing that came to mind is the robots of series of movies of Star Wars. Probably, R2-D2 and C3-PO are the widely popular fictional robots/characters among all of the presented in Star Wars. Simplistically, we can say that robot is a machine that can automatically sense, make decisions, and perform actions. In general, robots are of various categories including aerospace, consumer, disaster response, humanoid, and industrial. Specifically, the consumer robots are the robots for personal help and fun, for example, AI-powered robot assistants and a variety of robotic toys and even vacuum cleaners. Consumer robots that have serious demand for growth in future include cleaning robots, smart speakers, and consumer drones. Consumer robots’ market is estimated to be US$ 17B in 2020 and expected to grow to US$ 76B in 2026.
