OYSTER BAY, NY -- Revenues from sales of mobile robotic telepresence systems will reach $372 million in 2019, up from $42 million in 2014, according to a new study by ABI Research. 

The research firm says the sector will grow at a CAGR of 54.4% over the forecast period.

Mobile robotic telepresence systems will find the greatest success in the healthcare, business management, retail, facilities management and operations, MRO, and manufacturing sectors for applications where independent mobility and embodied presence are called for, and where high levels of social interaction are required, the firm added.

According to Dan Kara, practice director, Robotics, “The price and performance level of mobile robotic telepresence systems have greatly improved their overall value proposition, and as a result the technology is generating interest from businesses and public entities alike. Solution providers such as iRobot, Double Robotics, Suitable Technologies, VGo Communications, MantaroBot, and Giraff Technologies have responded producing a range of mobile robotic telepresence products. Organizations that are comfortable with the risk of early-stage adoption should examine the value proposition of MRT systems for telepresence applications that require independent
