THE MOBILE ROBOTS MARKET BY 2023
The mobile robots market is expected to grow to USD 54.1 billion by 2023, at a CAGR of 23.71% during the forecast period. The high adoption of robots for personal uses, such as companionship and entertainment, is the key factor driving the growth of the market. Increasing demand for automated ground vehicles (AGVs) of warehouse automation is another driving factor for the market.

Professional robots to hold largest share of mobile robots market
The adoption of professional robots for medical applications, such as laboratory automation and surgery assistance is one of the key factor driving the market. However, warehouse automation is a recent trend observed in the industry and AGVs play a very vital role in the warehouse automation process. Apart from this, the robots help the logistic companies in attaining short- to medium-term payback period and provide higher return on investment (ROI).
Domestic applications to contribute a significant share to mobile robots
The development of artificial intelligence and IoT has given a new dimension of how robots can interact and work with humans. Also, the development and evolution of MEMS and sensors, and enhancements in visualization technology have improved the efficiency and accuracy of mobile robots. The growth of the mobile robot market for domestic applications is led by innovation and modernization in the field of robotics. Technological advancements and research activities have led to the development of domestic cleaning robots, which are helping humans to perform mundane tasks.
Mobile robots market for control systems to grow at highest CAGR
Controller or control system is the main device used in any type of robotic system. Every robot must have a control system to operate its drive system, which is used to move the arm, wrist, and body of a robot, and hence it is also known as the central processing unit (CPU) or processor or the brain of robots. Further, with integration of technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) and IoT put forth a need for optimized control systems for robots. Hence, the growth of the market for control systems can also be attributed to the evolution of autonomous robots and AI integrated robots worldwide.
IN A POTENTIAL PROJECT, WE ARE PRIMARILY INTERESTED IN IDEA — SOFTWARE, HARDWARE, SOFTWARE & HARDWARE SOLUTION, SERVICE
BUSINESS POTENTIAL
On the basis of this idea it is possible to make a product, which, in turn, can become in demand on the global market, either as an independent unit, or as an interesting unit of any other a larger ecosystem.
the idea must be moderately unique (in order for us to protect IP)
We present the following requirements to the project:
it must be implemented on the horizon of 1.5−2 years, and correspond to the size of our check, and the focus of the fund
be liquid
We are ready for the fact that an already formed team and a project that has already started will come to us with an idea, and we are also ready to speak with an enthusiast who does not have a presentation, because our uniqueness is the ability to work at extra early stages, and if we see a really cool idea, then we will be ready to spend resources to help in the formation and acceleration of the project.
