Because of that advantage, they are taking over many tasks in many industries, lowering wage costs, and improving efficiency. Let’s look at some examples. The manufacturing sector was the first one to introduce robots to perform…

by Aubin Duchier Medicine is growing rapidly these last decades and this is particularly due to improvement in science, research and the appearance of high technology, and robots. Robots had, have, and will have a big impact in the near and long-term future. They are growing and helping people all over the world directly in developed countries — because high technologies are easier to find — or indirectly in developing countries. Robots may seem very expensive at first sight but the reality is different. Firstly, the prices for…
