Keynote speech: “Toward an Era in Which Robotization and Automation Are the Norm”
Today, the work that can be done by robots is growing. With the functions of robots and peripheral devices evolving, robot-related manufacturers and system integrators (SIers), of course, are working on robotization and automation, but so are users themselves, and application development appears to be in full bloom. The era in which robotization and automation become the norm is right in front of us. Front-runners in the respective domains of robot manufacturers, material handling equipment manufacturers, and robot users will speak about their visions for the future of automation.
