Abstract
Robotics has been expected to realize innovation by the cost reduction of manufacturing and service delivery for employers, the burden reduction of labors for employees, and the quality upgrade of products and services for their customers. This talk introduces recent trends of robotics for the innovation mainly taking place in Japan. The robots for the cost reduction include industrial robots and autonomous guided vehicles for logistics, those for the burden reduction powered suits and mobile robots, and those for the quality upgrade nursing care robots and personal mobility. The expectations for VLSI technologies are described as well.
