BOSTON, Sept. 20, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Consumer-grade robots have much potential beyond trivial tasks in users' home. A recent study from the User Experience Strategies (UXS) service at Strategy Analytics "UXS Technology Planning Report: Robotics", investigating the needs, behaviors and expectations of consumers regarding consumer-grade robots, has found broader ranges of movement, addition of features such as arms and hands and modular elements to enhance task flexibility, will allow robots to become true assistants in users' lives.

"Robots designed to perform just one task will gradually become obsolete as a user's requirements change. Robots that are modular can be equipped with the latest accessories to expand their functionality, increasing their longevity and adaptability" commented Mathew Alton, Analyst and report author. "In addition, robots that have the ability to 'learn' unpredictable tasks through artificial intelligence (AI) would also be able to adapt to a user's changing requirements." Chris Schreiner, Director of Syndicated Research, UXIP, added, "A robot that can be physically altered to perform a myriad of different tasks will be easier to sell than one that does only one predictable task. A functioning 'base' robot would encourage an ecosystem of add-ons and accessories, providing a revenue source over time."
