Aerospace & defence ecosystem : robotics and drones

Robotics, which includes drones, is a dual-use technology with civil and defence applications. Civil applications include industrial robots (the socalled cobots) and service robots in logistics, agriculture, and cleaning services. Exoskeletons (or wearable robotics) are increasingly important in civil healthcare and defence applications. In defence, both manned and unmanned types of robots, including drones are used. Drones are used for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions. They help the soldiers on the ground and sitting far away to plan their next move.
