The RedHat® for ROS

So how come we don’t have robot maids? We will, once AGVs and Co-Bot arms reach the € 5k figure Till recently they were too expensive and dangerous

Actually, we do have robot maids.. Almost every product we use has a CPU and some degree of autonomy and sensor feedback

100B ARM CPUs in circulation CPU market $300B “AI has replaced people in the financial services and robots have replaced labor in factories”

Actually there’s much more to it

Disrupting Industrial Automation

Traditional automation • conveyor belts, cameras, pumps, motors, PLC • Robotic arms have been around for 40 years • Robotic AGVs have been around for 30 years • The car industry is symbiotic to the robot-arm industry • Industrial automation = MTBF, SLA, 10 year ROI, Integration

Disruption • Recently more sensors, more computing power, collaborative • New robotic arms are sensitive enough to work without gate • New AGVs are smaller, able to stop in time, surpass obstacles Accelerated growth of robotics market Germany’s Industry 4.0 If we automate manufacturing and deploy good data analytics China will not have the advantage of $4/hr factory workers (assuming availability of supply chain)

Made in China 2025 If we give incentives to adopt robots instead of workers in factories We will keep our upper hand as the world’s biggest manufacturer Aiming to have more than SK’s 550 robots per 10000 workers (and we already have the supply chain)

Robot Arms

• Universal Robots made a “killing” 6 years ago - $25k robot arm – Kukka and ABB charge $80k for 6 DOF robot arm – 2000 deployed – Sold for US$285 million in 2015 • Over 50 collaborative robot arms and startups in the last 3 years • Focus on small payload, slower speed, sensitive joints • The secret sauce of robot arms is the Harmonic Drive – Handful of manufacturers. $600 from China, $1500 from Germany/Japan • At least 10 Chinese Cobot companies – Foxcon deploy 100k robots a year replacing their 1.2m workforce – Estimated 3000 new robot companies the past 3 years in China • Robot Arms on Exponential growth – Franka startup planning to sell 8000 robot arms in 2018 – (ABB installed total of 300k robot arms) • 50 new co-bot arms in 4 years • Working safely around people • Price down to €10k (Harmonic driver bottleneck) • 60 new AGV startups the past 4 years • Using ROS opensource software • LIDAR, 3D camera, CPU/GPU AGV / Material Handling robots 100+ companies
