[184 Pages Report] The Humanoid Robot Market size was estimated at USD 2.38 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 3.06 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 29.77% to reach USD 14.76 billion by 2030.

The humanoid robots are designed with a head, two arms, and two legs, and they often mimic human movements and actions. Application areas for humanoid robots include service robotics, where they perform tasks such as customer service, caregiving, and companionship, and industrial uses, where they carry out complex tasks requiring dexterity and human-like interaction. Increasing investments in research and development from both public and private sectors also propel market growth. Additionally, the growing demand for automation in services and the industrial sector serves as a significant catalyst for the growth of the humanoid robot market. Furthermore, the aging population and the subsequent need for assistance in care homes boost the demand for humanoid robots. Complexities in design and the requirement for constant software updates hamper the growth of the humanoid robot market. The growing technological advancements in artificial intelligence and machine learning that improve humanoid robots’ functionality and adaptability are expected to create opportunities for market growth.

Component: Growing usage of hardware components that are necessary for the structure, movement, power supply of the robot

Hardware components are the physical parts that build up a humanoid robot. These components are crucial for the structure, movement, power supply, and sensory functions of the robot. A structural frame provides the necessary rigidity and shape. It’s typically crafted from lightweight, durable materials such as aluminum or carbon fiber. Joint & limb movement is driven by actuators, often piezoelectric, hydraulic, and electric motors. The software in humanoid robots includes the operating system, control algorithms, and application software. These powerful tools enable the cognitive functions and decision-making capabilities of the robot. The operating system is the foundational software that manages hardware resources and supports middleware, which facilitates the communication between different software and hardware components. Humanoid robots leverage programming frameworks and AI algorithms to mimic human-like behavior, learning capabilities, and adaptability to different environments.

Application: Growing potential of humanoid robots in education & entertainment to engage students and audiences

In education & entertainment, humanoid robots serve as interactive learning tools for educators and performers. They are favored for their ability to engage students and audiences with a personal touch that enhances the learning and entertainment experience. These robots are increasingly being used for language tutoring, STEM education, and as attractions at theme parks and events. Humanoid robots in the realm of personal assistance & caregiving cater to the needs of the elderly, disabled, and individuals requiring domestic help. They assist in daily activities, provide companionship, and offer healthcare support, thus emphasizing attributes such as empathy, task adaptability, and safety in design. In public relations, humanoid robots represent companies and interact with customers or guests, requiring a high degree of social intelligence, natural language processing, and robustness to deal with diverse public environments. Robots in research & space exploration are required to carry out tasks in hazardous environments unsuitable for humans. They need to possess high levels of autonomy, resilience to extreme conditions, and the ability to navigate and manipulate their surroundings with precision. Humanoid robots in search & rescue operations are valued for their ability to navigate through debris and confined spaces, perform reconnaissance, and locate survivors in disaster scenarios. They need strength, endurance, and agility to handle such extreme and unpredictable environments.
