What segments make up the Industrial Robotics industry?
I am giving a webinar next Thursday on Robotics 101 with RIA and it will cover this question, but right now, automotive is the big driver for industrial automation. Specifically welding, painting, and assembly.
Robots are in almost every sector of the economy, and in every process for manufacturing, material handling to inspection, pick and place to storage/retrieval and packaging / food automation.
Hope this helps.

My Name is Brian Jencks. I tutor students now in high school and get the question: “what should I do? And how should I do it?” I believe there is a future in robots that perform in hostile environments (collapsed buildings, nuclear waste sites, ocean depths, bomb threats, avalanches, outer space, burning buildings …). I can not find information on educational paths for such careers. Standard rap for engineers sure—but are there any specialized programs? (I am not asking about industrial robots—that ship has sailed.)
There are lots and lots of opportunities in industrial robotics, collaborative robotics, autonomous robots and certainly in specialized niche industries such as security, service and emergency robots. There are lots of community colleges and universities across North America with programs on automation and robotics programming, machine vision, etc. Search on Google for technical robotics courses near you. Also consider reaching out to an automation integrator company (or robot mfg company) and asking where they hire their robot apprentices and co-op students.
Good Luck,
