# Robotics Industry Insider: AI & Automation News for June 10, 2025

As we approach mid-2025, the robotics and automation landscape continues to evolve at a remarkable pace. Yesterday at Automate 2025, North America's premier automation technology event, RealMan Robotics made waves with their latest lineup of intelligent ultra-lightweight robotic arms and dual-arm platforms designed for industrial automation and human-robot collaboration.

The global industrial automation market is showing impressive growth, valued at $256.02 billion in 2025 and projected to reach $569.27 billion by 2034, with a compound annual growth rate of 9.31%. Asia Pacific leads with a market size of $99.85 billion in 2025.

Recent data from the Association for Advancing Automation (A3) reveals interesting trends: North American robot orders in Q1 2025 increased by just 0.4%, but order value rose by 15% compared to Q1 2024, indicating continued investment in higher-value automation systems. The automotive sector is driving growth with 3,668 units ordered valued at $263 million—a 42% increase in units and a 78% increase in revenue over last year.

Not all regions are experiencing growth, however. The German robotics and automation industry expects a 10% revenue drop in 2025, with total sales forecasted at €14.5 billion. Machine Vision remains stagnant, while Robotics and Automated Solutions face declines of 5% and 15% respectively.

In corporate news, DHL Group recently signed a memorandum of understanding with Boston Dynamics for an additional 1,000-robot deployment, part of their $1.1 billion investment in automation over the past three years. Simultaneously, Boston Dynamics is collaborating with LG Innotek to equip their Atlas humanoids with advanced mobile camera technology.

Software integration remains crucial for the industry's advancement. At Automate 2025, companies showcased AI-powered solutions that connect robotics to enterprise systems while analyzing data for simulation and training AI models.

For businesses looking to implement automation, the current market offers opportunities despite economic uncertainties. Labor shortages, reshoring strategies, and digital transformation goals are driving long-term adoption. As one industry expert noted, "Automation is no longer a luxury, it's a necessity for competitive manufacturing."
