Continuing from Part 1, Hannover Messe 2025 showcased how assistive robots are moving beyond the factory floor:
Physical Support & Wearables: Exoskeleton-type devices that support workers in lifting and repetitive tasks displayed promising ergonomics improvements and injury reduction.
Healthcare Robotics: Robots designed for patient mobility support and surgical assistance highlighted the blending of precise mechanics and empathetic interaction.
Autonomous Logistics: Mobile robots yet again impressed with their ability to navigate complex environments and support warehouse operations without constant human intervention.
What stood out most was the growing focus on safety and ease of use, with user-friendly interfaces and adaptive capabilities ensuring smooth collaboration between humans and robots. These trends mark a significant shift in how companies approach automation: not as replacement but as augmentation.
Keep an eye out for upcoming posts exploring the business opportunities and challenges in adopting assistive robotics.
