Industrial robotics are the robotics used by businesses typically found in manufacturing, assembling goods through an assembly line. Normally given dangerous, repetitive, or complex tasks to avoid the risk of injury (physical or mental) to a human. Industrial robotics often present a cost-effective alternative to human workers, especially when short and long term disability comes into play due to machine damage.
I am unsure if these robots follow the three laws of robotics, but we should start programming those in.
