STRATEGIC OPERATIONS AND SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT
Introduction
This report aims to discuss the effects of robotics in several industries. The effect of
robotics in airline, healthcare and the consumer goods industries is briefly stated in this
report. The impact of the robotics in the Healthcare Industry, the Financial Industry and the
Business Consulting Industry is concisely specified in this report. Finally an appropriate
conclusion is provided.
Discussion
The branch of science and engineering that involves the mechanical engineering,
information engineering, electronic engineering and computer science for making the
enhanced machines is called robotics (Car 2014). This branch majorly deals with designing,
operation, construction, as well as the utilisation of the robots and computer systems in order
to control, sensory feedback and the information processing.
Effect of robotics in three industries
Effect of robotics in airline industry: The use of robotics is being extensively done in
several industries all over the world and it is reshaping the methods by which many manual
work is executed across the industries by the automation of the tasks. A robot is used that is
linked to the digital information screen and it is able to clasp the communicating dialogue and
it could offer the beneficial information on the digital screen whenever it is provoked that
includes the information of the airport facility and the details of the airport inventory. The
airline industry has been extensively utilising the robotics in helping in several tasks such as
the car parking, baggage handling, at the airports (Siciliano and Khatib 2016). The robotics is
also being extensively utilised in the airline industry for enhancing the supply chain. With the
help of robotics automation, the equipment of material handling would weigh and move
cargo to the next location and the machines would sort it out automatically and then manage
