PROBLEMS OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES: ROBOTICSL

Abstract

Purpose : the purpose of the work is to consider the problems of development and the market of industrial and service robots. Methods: the methodology of the work is based on an analysis of application areas, new trends in the development of industrial and service robots, as well as development programs for robotics in the most developed countries, including the development of robotics in Russia. Results: the results of the work include the analysis of market indicators (global costs, data on the industrial robot market, including the forecast indicators of the markets for the main types of industrial robots, robot components, and on the market for service robots), a brief analysis of the program and directions for the development of robotics in leading countries, as well as data on the use and production of robots abroad and in Russia. Conclusions and relevance : the conclusion is reduced to the need for government bodies to provide effective coordination and necessary funding for research and development, which are of great importance for the country's economy as a whole and for the development of robotics, the implementation of a new structural policy based on long-term development priorities; accelerated recovery of leading manufacturing industries (machine-tool construction, radio-electronic industry, etc.); renewal of fixed capital, etc. The system of state priorities should be multi-level, covering industries andproductionat all levels of the hierarchy. It should also be taken into account that the robotics market is characterized by long, labor-intensive and capital-intensive stages of R&D and prototype development, so the orientation toward start-ups and the activity of certain groups of enthusiastic robot developers can not yield any tangible results for the Russian economy, that is it is necessary to develop and implement a very well elaborated state strategy.
