…is Robotics as a Service? Robotics as a Service (RaaS) is a paradigm-shifting new business and service delivery model for robotics. This arrangement dramatically reduces the barrier to entry for introducing robotics into any industry by delivering a robotics-driven solution on a subscription basis. However, the advantages of RaaS solutions extend far beyond the sticker price. In a traditional model, businesses would identify a need for automation, seek out the right hardware for the situation, and then purchase—or build themselves—whatever corresponding software was required to control and manage their new robot fleet. Maintenance, upgrades, and operational management would also fall…

…for companies offering their systems through a robotics-as-a-service, or RaaS, model. That was one of the key takeaways from Formant's “2023 State of RaaS Report” it released today. For the report, the robot operations company surveyed more than 300 robotics professionals around the globe to gauge how widely adopted the RaaS model has become. “A majority of the survey respondents work at RaaS companies, but we also received responses from professionals that work at non-RaaS robotics companies, as well as integrators,” a spokesperson for the company told Robotics 24/7. Robot makers have touted RaaS as a cost-saving and risk-management tool.…

…is also plenty of enthusiasm about the robotics-as-a-service, or RaaS, model for adopting automation. Like the established software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, RaaS bundles the costs of running a system into a tidy regular fee. That moves capital investments in warehouse robotics into the realm of operational expenses or “opex.” The advantages cascade from there, from opening up solutions to a wider base of users to making it easier to scale fleets, say industry observers. The model is catching on, with some vendors having focused on it for years. For example, autonomous mobile robot (AMR) provider Locus Robotics uses RaaS for all…
