Abstract
A robot activity study was conducted for the U.S. Bureau of the Census in late 1985 to provide a detailed picture of the current and planned use of robotics in San Diego County, California. The results indicate an increasing usage rate, expectations of decreasing costs, and minimal employment effect to date, but perceptions of an increased impact. The current and future use of robotics in 65 companies is presented here as a series of charts.
期刊介绍:
Robotics publishes original papers, technical reports, case studies, review papers and tutorials in all the aspects of robotics. Special Issues devoted to important topics in advanced robotics will be published from time to time. It particularly welcomes those emerging methodologies and techniques which bridge theoretical studies and applications and have significant potential for real-world applications. It provides a forum for information exchange between professionals, academicians and engineers who are working in the area of robotics, helping them to disseminate research findings and to learn from each other’s work. Suitable topics include, but are not limited to: -intelligent robotics, mechatronics, and biomimetics -novel and biologically-inspired robotics -modelling, identification and control of robotic systems -biomedical, rehabilitation and surgical robotics -exoskeletons, prosthetics and artificial organs -AI, neural networks and fuzzy logic in robotics -multimodality human-machine interaction -wireless sensor networks for robot navigation -multi-sensor data fusion and SLAM
