Empowering a robot to ‘see’ allows it to precisely and consistently differentiate, pick, sort, move, weld or assemble various parts no matter their complexity. For instance, a multiple-step manual welding task on an automobile assembly line might take ten ‘blind’ robots to perform since each part must be mounted in place before every weld.

The adoption of robotics helps to lower energy consumption in manufacturing. Compared to traditional assembly lines, considerable energy savings can be achieved through reduced heating. At the same time, robots work at high speed, increasing production rates so that manufacturing becomes more time- and energy-efficient.

As opposed to industrial robots that function explicitly separate from human workers because of safety considerations, cobots are designed to operate in concert with humans. They move slower, deliver less brute force and include more sensors to avoid causing injury and can perform repetitive motions.
