Global Educational Robots Market - Forecasts from 2018 to 2023

Global educational robots market is estimated to reach a market size of US$640.594 million by 2023 at a CAGR of 27.87% over the forecast period from the current estimate of US$146.513 million in 2017. Educational robots include the collection of activities, educational resources, pedagogical philosophy and physical platforms for the transfer of knowledge. There is a rising adoption of educational robots in K-12 schools around the world owing to their effective interactive capability. Increasing expenditure in the field of research and development and growing popularity of these robots as a learning tool will drive their demand. The emergence of affordable educational robots will further add to the growing demand for these robots. However, the reluctance of the teaching staff to fully incorporate robots into their curriculum will restrict the growing demand for educational robots during the forecast period.

By Component:

The global educational robot is segmented as software and hardware. Software accounted for a significant market share due increasing research and development expenditure by existing
companies. New players are entering the market and developing state-of-the-art solutions to capture a greater market share. Under hardware, educational kits provided by the companies accounted for a substantial share due to their high adoption in K-12 schools.

By End User:

K-12 schools are estimated to hold a large market share due to the presence of companies at national and international level. Budding adoption of robots in classroom and high market growth rate is motivating several companies to enter the market. Several universities have their own robotics department which develops proprietary robotic solutions for industrial, commercial, personal and educational purposes.
