Survey on New Trends of Robotic Tools in the Automotive Industry

In the last decade, industrial robotics sector has known an evolution at level of its technological platform, especially with the appearance of Industry 4.0, therefore we are entering a new era of automation where intelligent production and digital factories produce increasingly complex and high-volume quality products with less human effort. The automotive industry which is already revolutionizing the transition to electric cars has to deal with the change in construction and the tools used to produce them. The use of evermore collaborating intelligent robots with machines and humans of smart manufacturing and assembly lines represents a new level of development in automation. This article provides an overview of the latest tools, directions and intelligent methods available today in this area, from virtual reality to wearable machine intelligence devices for human-driven systems, all the while focusing on robotic applications. Describes the latest industry trends in each field, by highlighting detection systems designed to achieve security, response speed, detection completeness, and reliability, introducing security vision systems of robotic systems, ultrasonic and laser sensors and their efficiency issues. In the final stage, the paper will compare the state of the art in automotive robotics by analyzing the development of leading car manufacturers in Europe, the United States and the Far East.
