Recently, the interest in development of service robots highly increases. The annual turnover in this area is estimated to a number close to 17 milliard Euro in the past years. The annual turnover could rise to 0.1 billion Euro by 2020 by IFR considering 30 % growth every year. Investments are expected to flow into all areas related to service robotics, mainly into the development of assistant robots for seniors and the handicapped people, health monitoring and surgical robots, robots in agriculture, pilotless drones and helicopters and ground vehicles without a driver. Very promising years seems to be coming for all the new and already existing companies focused on this area with their software and sensor engineers together with producers of important accessories.
