Advent of Advanced Robotics Solutions Fuels North America Laser Distance Sensor Market
The advanced and intelligent autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) are autonomous mobile manipulator robots (AMMR) with a robot arm mounted on them. They are increasingly being used for picking up and moving things on a mobile platform in logistics, retail, healthcare, automobile, aerospace, and other sectors, as these robots can recognize objects, pick-and-place, assemble, pack, sort, and perform other tasks without human intervention. As these robots are more costly than the basic AMRs, the market is still in a growing phase. However, the rising adoption of these robots will majorly driven by its rising awareness regarding its benefits such as maximize the efficiency of workflow operation, minimize the error, and increase the productivity output.AMMRs use sensors that assist mobile robots in calculating distance for the better performance of tasks assigned to them.
