1. Understanding Service Robotics
What Are Service Robots?
Service robots are intelligent machines designed to assist humans in daily tasks and professional services. This can range from cleaning robots that sweep your floors, delivery drones that transport goods, reception robots that welcome guests, to customer service robotics solutions that enhance user experience.
Examples of Service Robots
- The Roomba from iRobot, a house-cleaning robot.
- Amazon’s delivery drone, Prime Air, designed to safely deliver packages to customers in 30 minutes or less.
- Relay by Savioke, a delivery robot used in hotels, hospitals, and other buildings.
- Sanbot Elf, a customer service robot used in retail, hospitality, and public services.
