own structure. These factors are favorable to propel growth of the global self-reconfiguring
modular robot market over the forecast period.
Sambot is a self-reconfiguring, self-assembly robot. It consists embedded mechatronics
integrated technology, which includes actuators, microprocessors, sensors, power, and
communication units integrated in the module. Hence, this Sambot robot can move
autonomously, can change their morphology and rearrange it. Moreover, it can connect with
other modules and it has the capacity to lift two other modules, and to move a complete system.
It is smaller in size and has operational running time at least 15 minutes. Therefore, it can be
utilized in search and rescue program.
However, high initial installation cost for low-volume production applications is one of the major
factors that is expected to restraint growth of the global self-reconfiguring modular robot
market.
Self-reconfiguring modular robot market: Regional Insights
The global self-reconfiguring modular robot market is segmented on the basis of regions into
North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, Middle East, and Africa. The market for self-
reconfiguring modular robot in Asia Pacific is expected to account for the largest share in the
global market over the forecast period. This growth is attributed to increased adoption of robots
by several manufacturers, especially in emerging economies such as China and India. According
to International Federation of Robots Organization (IFR), in 2015 the sales of robots was totaled
160,558 units from 134,444 units in 2014. The total sales for robots in China, individually,
accounted for 68,556 units in 2015, which is higher than the total sales in 2014 which was 57,096
units of robots. This sale is mainly driven by increasing adoption of these in automotive,
electrical/electronics industry, metal industry, and rubber and plastics industry. Hence, this
huge demand for robots in several industries in Asia Pacific region is expected to propel the
region self-reconfiguring modular robots market by 2025.
