This is you Robotics Industry Insider: AI & Automation News podcast.
The robotics and automation industry is at an inflection point. Recent weeks have seen a wave of transformative announcements, signaling both the intensity of competition and the pace of technical breakthroughs. One high-profile debut came from igus, which entered the humanoid robot market with Iggy Rob, targeting industrial and service applications with an emphasis on flexibility and efficiency. Meanwhile, Dexterity’s ‘superhumanoid’ Mech robot has started operational validation in Japan, tackling truck unloading and aiming to revolutionize logistics processes through advanced AI-driven manipulation and perception. In parallel, CMES Robotics and PAC Machinery unveiled a new robotic bagging system at PACK Expo 2025 in Las Vegas, demonstrating the ongoing demand for automation in warehouse and fulfillment operations.
Despite a reported 5.8 percent contraction in global industrial robot market revenue in 2024, analysts like Interact Analysis foresee a gradual rebound in 2025. Collaborative robots, after experiencing shipment growth dropping to a 13.8 percent low last year, are now poised for renewed expansion as integration with artificial intelligence and greater interoperability become reality. Asia-Pacific continues to dominate deployment, with North America leveraging advanced infrastructure for smart manufacturing. According to Grand View Research, the global industrial automation and control systems market is projected to reach over 378 billion US dollars by 2030, growing at an average annual rate above ten percent. Sensors—vital for machine vision, feedback, and real-time control—are expected to capture nearly forty percent of this market share in 2025, showing that intelligence at the edge is becoming standard.
Integration of closed-loop artificial intelligence systems is emerging as a catalyst, allowing robots to learn and adapt in real time. For example, the Palladyne IQ platform enables companies to tackle previously unsolved automation challenges by dynamically optimizing workflows. These advances are being accompanied by major investments and partnerships, such as Bedrock Robotics’ recent eighty million dollars in funding, highlighting the strategic focus on autonomous construction and heavy industry.
For practitioners considering investment, now is the time to evaluate AI-powered solutions, develop partnerships with technology providers, and prioritize workforce upskilling for a new era of human-robot collaboration. Looking ahead, listeners should expect continued convergence of physical robotics with artificial intelligence, wider adoption in both traditional and emerging industries, and renewed momentum in collaborative and humanoid platforms. For those positioning for the future, understanding the technical nuances and real-world applications driving these trends will be critical.
