The robotic software market size is expected to see exponential growth in the next few years. It will grow to $60.32 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to increasing adoption of collaborative and service robots, rising integration of AI-driven robotics software, expansion of cloud-based robotics management, growing demand from logistics and healthcare sectors, increasing focus on autonomous system optimization. Major trends in the forecast period include increasing adoption of intelligent robotic control software, rising demand for predictive maintenance solutions, growing integration of simulation and digital twin tools, expansion of data-driven robotics platforms, enhanced focus on interoperability and scalability.
The increased industrial automation is expected to drive the growth of the robotic software market going forward. Automation refers to the use of technologies to manufacture and deliver goods and services with minimal human involvement. Its adoption is rising as organizations seek to improve operational efficiency, reduce labor costs, minimize production errors, and optimize resource utilization. Robotic software supports this transformation by providing scalable, cost-effective, and user-friendly solutions that automate repetitive tasks, enhance agility, and strengthen competitiveness in modern industries. For instance, in September 2023, according to the International Federation of Robotics (IFR), a Germany-based robotics association, global industrial robot installations reached 553,052 units, marking a 5% year-on-year increase in 2022, with 73% installed in Asia compared with 10% in the Americas. Therefore, the growing adoption of industrial automation is fueling the growth of the robotic software market.
Major companies in the robotic software market are focusing on developing advanced technologies, such as visual servoing, to enhance the precision, adaptability, and efficiency of robotic operations. Visual servoing is a robotic control technique that uses visual feedback from cameras to guide a robot’s motion in real time, enabling accurate positioning and dynamic task execution. For instance, in 2023, according to Inbolt, a France-based robotics software company, the firm launched GuideNOW, a self-contained 3D vision servoing and real-time robot guidance solution compatible with any industrial robot. The system enables high-precision performance in applications such as semi-structured bin-picking and fastening tasks, significantly improving alignment accuracy and operational speed. Advancements in visual servoing technology are therefore driving the growth of the robotic software market.
In September 2024, Hitachi Ltd., a Japan-based industrial technology conglomerate, acquired MA Micro Automation GmbH through its subsidiary JR Automation Technologies, LLC. Through this acquisition, Hitachi aims to expand its global footprint in industrial automation and enhance its robotic system-integration capabilities to deliver comprehensive automation solutions across manufacturing industries. MA Micro Automation GmbH is a Germany-based company specializing in robotic and automation technologies.
