Abstract
The breakthrough in artificial intelligence technology and the decreased cost of core robot components have accelerated the perception of service robots in various fields. The application scenarios of service robots are complex and diverse, including retail, logistics, medical care, education, security, etc., to achieve diversified and complex functions. Artificial intelligence technology is an important determinant for service robots to achieve substantial progress in the next stage of development. Thus, in this paper, three typical types of service robots, including domestic service robots, outdoor service robots, and the service robot for the elderly and relevant technology advancements are introduced and discussed. It could be concluded that the development of more compatible materials and the controller and sensor technology can effectively improve the sensitivity of the robot and the ability to adapt to complex environments, thus improving the diversity of functions, the convenience of use, and accelerating the commercial application of robots. The paper provides constructive suggestions for the development of service robots in the future and hopes to accelerate the large-scale popularization of service robots.
