Robots are expected to take on more roles in the future to assist with household chores like cleaning floors, mowing lawns, and cleaning pools. Their monitoring abilities may also help detect abnormal signals that could indicate diseases. While some manual labor jobs will be performed by robots, other jobs will transition to involve more control panel operation. Overall, robots will continue growing in capabilities and usefulness in both home and work settings, as well as for health applications.
