The number of shipments of mobile robots will rise from 547,000 units in 2023 to 2.79 million by 2030, as customers expand applications from the current typical use case in warehousing and logistics to new tasks in manufacturing, last-mile delivery, agriculture, and healthcare, according to a report from technology analyst firm ABI.
“Mobile robots are a very valuable category of robot which have completely transformed warehousing and logistics in recent years,” George Chowdhury, Robotics Industry Analyst at ABI Research, said in a release. “For material handling alone, mobile robots offer enterprises transformative efficiency improvements. Driven by the evolution of supporting technologies such as Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM), mobile robots can be deployed in diverse and dynamic environments, presenting new horizons to stakeholders and bringing efficiency improvements to under-automated economic sectors such as agriculture and healthcare.”

Wealth of Geeks (2024-10-16)
One of the most noticeable tells was how quickly robots responded to attendees — as if large-language models powered them with nearly zero latency. Experts like George Chowdhury, the robotics lead at ABI Research, were skeptical. “If Tesla had large-language models this responsive, humanoid robots would not be their primary go-to market,” he explains to Wealth of Geeks.
Although existing AI systems like ChatGPT allow for back-and-forth interaction, it’s deceptive to suggest Tesla’s robots could engage in the kind of seamless conversations seen at the event, at least right now, Chowdhury adds.

“The robotics industry relies on offline programming software to democratize automation while enabling dynamic workflows to allow decision makers to rapidly re-task robots for managing the production of heterogeneous products. Analytics and optimization features of software offerings both maximize productivity and create transparency, enabling broad stakeholder tie-ins. Further, intuitive interfaces allow workers to program robots without prior coding knowledge,” explained George Chowdhury, Robotics Industry analyst at ABI Research.

Global technology intelligence firm ABI Research found that design and development simulation software revenue will grow at a 21.6 percent compound annual growth rate to the end of the decade. George Chowdhury, robotics industry analyst at ABI Research, says: “Virtual commissioning is about maintaining output.
“Stakeholders cannot afford the weeks of production downtime that have historically accompanied the integration of new robots. Some vendors claim that virtual commissioning can reduce deployment times by 60 percent.”
