Abstract

Robotic technology is currently one of the vital technologies in various fields of society and will play a significant role in the future. This article examines the capabilities and future applications of robotics in the horizon of 1414. In this study, the importance of the widespread use of robots and its impact on daily life and societies in the future are examined. Focusing on the types and capabilities as well as current and future applications of robots, this article provides the reader with a comprehensive perspective. Due to technological advances, robots will be able to perform complex and diverse tasks in different environments. The main problem of this research is to identify the capabilities and future applications of robots. For this purpose, using the method of holding brainstorming sessions and interviewing experts, 84 themes related to the capabilities and future applications of robots were extracted, and then using the two-step Delphi method, 50 themes were reported as final results. The results show that in the future, the three main applications of robots include advanced processing of environmental data, increasing human living standards, exploring and extracting space resources; And the top three capabilities of robots are artificial intelligence, interaction with humans, and stability in difficult conditions.
