People want robots in warehouses and factories not hospitals or schools Hexagon study finds

New findings from Hexagon’s global Robot Generation study show that both adults and children are open to robots at work, but are setting clear terms for where and how they should be used.
Asked whether they would prefer a human or a robot to handle specific workplace tasks, adults consistently chose robots for physical, repetitive, and hazardous work. 68% prefer a robot for lifting and transporting heavy items, 54% for carrying and delivering, and 52% for monitoring hazards. Children follow the same pattern with even greater openness, with 69% preferring a robot for heavy lifting, and 59% for carrying and delivering.

Discover the findings of the study.
