Autonomous Robots Put to Work: The Top Five Robots in Common Use

eetimes.com, Aug. 21, 2019 – 

Robots aren't exactly taking over the world, but autonomous vehicles, radio-controlled cars, and robots are becoming a common sight at many workspaces. From military and industry to energy and emergency services, robots are becoming part of the regular crew ─ and it's for good reason. Here are the top five robot workers, where you'll see them, and why.

Why robots

Technology for autonomous vehicles has increased significantly over the past decade. The robots of today are equipped with sensors that can do everything from identifying motion and excessive moisture, to notifying operators in the event of abnormal temperature fluctuations and vibration levels.

In this way, robots can help signal if what they are inspecting is about to break down, allowing crews to come in early, service machines, and prevent significant breakdowns. Comparatively, robots are also cheap. Aside from the initial purchase cost and scheduled maintenance, the costs of "hiring" robots can be much less than hiring people for 24/7 surveillance.

Energy

Drones play a significant role in the energy sector. For years now, the flying autonomous devices have been used to monitor the need for machine maintenance, and for security surveillance. Drones are so popular in the energy sector, they even have their own summit.
