Abstract

Industrial robots have been widely applied in a broad array of industries and have lured numerous companies to set foot into this arena, including Taiwanese companies such as Foxconn, Delta, Foxlink, Shihlin Electric, Contrel Technology, Tongyou Electronic, and Advantech-LNC Technology. Recent years, several leading companies have seen aggressive investment in related technologies or M&A activities, including FANUC, ABB, KUKA, Yaskawa, Siemens, Sony, Mitsubishi, Honda, and Seiko Epson. This report provides an overview of the industrial robot technologies and thorough patent data mining results that reflect major vendors' patent deployments and technology trends. Also included are the outlook for the industrial robot market and opportunities for perspective entrants.
