1/ People consider #robots hardware, but they'll be considered software in the future.

2/ Nvidia's press announcement that leading Japanese companies will use the Jetson AGX Xavier for next gen #autonomous machines didn't generate much buzz, but it's an important step in the direction of software defined robots. nvidianews.nvidia.com/news/leading-j…

3/ People thought industrial robots were a mature technology, but declining costs, collaborative robots, and now deep learning are making them accessible to new industries and expanding the addressable market.

4/ This has the potential to create a virtuous cycle. Costs come down with a cumulative doubling of production. So as new markets adopt robots the time to reach a doubling of robots decreases and costs drop faster making robots more accessible to other industries.

5/ Every robotics company should have a strategy for capturing data from their robots for deep learning purposes.
