Taiwan’s industrial robots
Abstract
Examines the growth in the use of, and versatility of industrial robots worldwide and looks at the current situation in Taiwan, which is reported to have the highest annual growth rate of robots. With a shortage of manpower, Taiwan sees automation as its best alternative, particularly in the automotive industry. Discusses robot research and development in Taiwan and compares it with other countries with regard to robotic technologies. Concludes that the number of robots deployed in the country will probably increase, allowing its industries to compete globally despite its manpower shortage.
