With this new invention people around the world are informed of the several of the uses of robots in the workplace.

In present time robots has go into a wide development and innovation for real life needs. In many sectors robot are used. For example robotics does play an important role in automobile manufacturing. It can give effect of the cycle time of producing vehicle. Automobile manufacture can take big advantages from robotics such as for the improvement of productivity, ergonomics, flexibility and scalability improvement, improvement of the quality and to reduce cost of production in the long term. These are the uses of robots in the workplace nowadays.

Knowing of how the huge advantages that robot can give to many sectors of industries, create the higher demand of improving, and innovating robots time to time. Uses of robots in the workplace are also giving the side effect from it. Which means human source is become less to be employed. This is in some developing countries considered to be a big problem. Because the more robots are hired the fewer employees needed. This will give the effect of the raising number of unemployment rate.
