Robotic development companies are using low cost, high strength material to enhance safety of operation in healthcare, industrial and military applications. Increasing funding from defense department of various countries to strengthen arm forces capability will stimulate the industry demand. For instance, in 2016, South Korea defense firms developed exoskeleton systems for Republic of Korea Army (RoKA). These systems are designed to increase soldier’s strength and endurance.

However, stringent government regulations concerning about the user safety and robot reliability are affecting the business. Manufacturers complying with these standards and get the approval from the regulatory authority possess high market potential during the forecast period. High price of these equipment is limiting the product adoption. The companies, such as Argo and Ekso are facing the problem in marketing products owing to the high price. Industry players also face difficulty in convincing insurance firms to cover the costs of these devices.

Mobile exoskeleton market accounted for highest revenue share of over 61% in 2016 and is estimated to continue its dominance during the study period. The segment growth is credited to increased application in military & industrial segment. Mobile exoskeleton provides mobility to the wearer while augmenting strength to lift heavy load. Stationary products are deployed in rehabilitation centers and hospitals. These products provide fast recovery for the patients suffering from spinal cord injuries and other mobility impairment disorders.

Lower body exoskeleton acquired more than 60% of total revenue in 2016. These products are used to restore movement of disabled persons. Also, the companies such as Lockheed Martin are investing and developing effective lower body products to enable operation in hostile conditions for security forces. Upper body segment is projected to exhibit highest CAGR of 53% owing to increasing demand in industrial applications such as welding. Full body segment is poised to exhibit growth owing to use in security & defense applications. Revenue for this segment will cross USD 760 million in 2024.
