Global Educational Robot Market - 2021-2028

Global Educational Robot Market - 2021-2028

Market Overview

The global educational robot market size was worth US$ XX million in 2020 and is estimated to record significant growth by reaching up to US$ XX million by 2028, growing at a CAGR of XX% within the forecast period (2021-2028).

Educational robotics, also known as pedagogical robotics, is a discipline that aims to teach kids to robotics and programming through hands-on activities starting at a young age. Educational robotics provides students with everything they need to build and program a robot capable of performing numerous baby and primary education tasks.

Educational robotics is a part of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) education, combining science, mathematics and technology while emphasizing practice over theory.

There are numerous educational robots available now for children and teenagers. The most well-liked are Makeblock mBot, Robo Wunderkind, OWI 535, LEGO Mindstorms EV3 and others.

Market Dynamics

Growing technological advancements in education have created immense demand for educational robots in the forecast period. Widespread adoption of different learning techniques such as e-learning techniques, including teaching robots, digital whiteboards and flip classrooms

Growing technological advancements in the field of education have created immense demand for educational robots in the forecast period

Robots are characterized as a collection of sensors, control systems, power supply and software. Designing, creating, programming and testing robots are examples of developmental tasks that combine physics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, structural engineering, mathematics and computing.

Until a decade ago, robots were thought to be a source of entertainment. Due to recent technological advancements in artificial intelligence, robots are increasingly employed in various sectors, including industrial, agricultural, manufacturing and education. Artificial intelligence is also making inroads into higher education.

For instance, MobyMax employs artificial intelligence to create tailored lesson plans and curricula for kids in grades K through 8. It also includes activities and contests to keep kids motivated and involved. Mathieu, an AI-based math tutor for higher levels of math education, was developed by Carnegie Learning.

Widespread adoption of different learning techniques such as e-learning techniques, including teaching robots, digital whiteboards and flip classrooms

Between 2017 and 2020, the global eLearning market grew by 200 percent, reaching US$250 million in value. It is estimated to reach well over US$300 million by 2025. The number has increased as per last estimated. The sudden outbreak of COVID-19 has escalated the market for the e-learning platform, thereby creating opportunities for other techniques such as teaching robots, digital whiteboards and flip classrooms.

So far, the most obvious relationship between the developing trend in educational robots and eLearning has been the potential impact of ""telepresence robots,"" which are robots that are both mobile and employ video technologies to recognize and converse with people in the real world.

For instance, the Kubi Telepresence Robot offers an affordable, portable and entertaining Distance Learning option for today's changing educational environment. The distinctive feature of Kubi for Distance Learning is that it allows students to look about remotely with 300 degrees of pan and 90 degrees of tilt while on a video chat, allowing them to observe and engage with teachers, other students, school nurses, coaches and family members.

The high purchasing cost of educational robots is the major challenge impacting the growth of the market

Establishing a robotic education center might be difficult for schools and colleges, especially those with no experience. Not only does the robot cost high money to buy, but it also costs a lot of money to integrate and maintain. Additional infrastructure in terms of safety, networking and power distribution may be necessary for some circumstances, which might push up the overall cost of deployment.

Institutions may not always have the space or infrastructure required for robot deployment. Capital investment might be difficult for a company, particularly if it does not tie the robot maker. The problem is exacerbated in developing countries, where educational institutions have even less money to spend on robotics leading to hampering the market growth for the product in the forecast period in developing regions

COVID-19 Impact Analysis

The COVID-19 pandemic, a deadly respiratory disease that began in China and has now spread globally, has impacted the educational robot business. The problem has impacted most educational robot makers and it is projected to have a medium-term impact. The market damage is mostly due to the temporary shutdown of robotics-related institutions, universities and training institutes. As a result, market participants have seen a decrease in sales.

For example, ABB Switzerland Robotics's & Discrete Automation segment's revenue fell 26% in Q2 2020 compared to the same period the previous year, partly due to the impact of COVID-19.

Segment Analysis

The global educational robot market is segmented based on type, component, end-user and region.

Humanoid robots are expected to dominate the global education robots market in the forecast period due to tremendously growing technological advancements.

The global educational robot market based on type is segmented into humanoid and non-humanoid. Humanoid robots are expected to dominate the global education robots market in the forecast period due to tremendously growing technological advancements.

Humanoid robots are one of the smallest segments of the service robot business, but they have many potentials to change the service industry. Human-looking robots have been developed by companies such as Softbank Robotics Group (Japan) and PAL Robotics (Spain) for use as medical assistants and instructional aids. Humanoid robots are currently thriving in the medical field, particularly as companions. Humanoid robots serve youngsters with specific needs in a small but devoted market.

Furthermore, humanoid robots use PBL (Project-Based Learning) methodologies to present new and interesting pedagogical themes. They assist students in developing problem-solving and analytical abilities, which are necessary for success in a knowledge-based, high-tech culture.

For instance, Pepper and Nao, two humanoid robots from Softbank Robotics Group in Japan, provide advanced platforms for the in-depth research of human-machine interaction, cognitive computing and autonomous navigation in the service industry, including personalized educational activities students in schools.

Geographical Analysis

Asia-pacific is expected to grow in educational robots market in the forecast period due to increasing government measures to advance education in the region

Asia-pacific is expected to grow in educational robots market in the forecast period due to increasing government measures to advance education in the region. Furthermore, regional players' technological developments in robotics present prospects for incorporating educational robots into the study curriculum. Japan and South Korea continue to make significant progress in creating various types of robots.
