Global Soft Robotics Market 2024

Soft robots, which are comprised mainly of easily deformable materials like fluids and gels, offer structural and material compliance, making them suitable for specific applications such as food processing and pharmaceutical packaging. This research covers various soft robotics forms, including soft grippers, cobots, and exoskeletons, among others.

The human-machine interface and interaction segment of the market is projected to grow from USD 0.9 billion in 2023 to USD 5.0 billion by 2029, with a CAGR of 27.5% during the forecast period. Soft robots are highly compatible with human interactions due to their soft and easily deformable bodies, which minimize damage and load on humans and the environment. Their bendable, compressible, stretchable, and twistable properties offer enormous potential in future personalized applications. These properties enable them to adapt to curved and irregular surfaces, thereby overcoming the limitations of rigid robots.

The Asia-Pacific segment of the market is estimated to be worth USD 1.2 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach USD 6.8 billion by 2029, registering the highest growth rate CAGR of 28.7% during the forecast period. Japan's government, in collaboration with universities and companies, is developing a robotic surgery system that allows doctors to operate with more precision and accuracy while simultaneously monitoring MRI readings and data from other devices. Korea is also adapting robots for healthcare, as are many other countries in the region. China and India are expected to have the largest geriatric population pool globally, leading to robust growth in demand for orthopedic surgeries in these countries during the forecast period. Europe is the second-largest region of the soft robots market in 2023. The European region boasts some of the most important tech hubs in the world and is a significant driver and adopter of modern technology, including soft robotics.
