Future Aspect

The total smart robot market is expected to reach USD 7.85 billion by 2020 , at an estimated CAGR of 19.22 % between 2015 and 2020 . Researches already predicted that by 2019 , 30 % of commercial service robotic applications will be in form of Robot as a Service business model . By 2020 , 60 % of robots will depend on cloud based software to define new skills , cognitive capabilities and application program , leading to formation of

5 robot . R & D Team of Cloud Minds at China is upgrading smart robots from Artificial Intelligence to Cloud Intelligence ( CI ). CIbased robots have a rebuilt " cloud brain " which has the same neural network as human beings . Additionally , a CI-based robot will to able to perform more complicated and precise tasks based on instructions as a result of the separation between the " cloud brain " and the machine itself .
