In addition, the adoption of ICT-enabled devices in the manufacturing industry has also doubled in the next 5 years.

This means that the role of humans will be replaced by technologies such as AI software, video recognition, augmented & virtual reality, Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), and exoskeletons.

Exoskeletons or external body coverings are an exciting new technology. This technology will be able to provide increased strength, precision and durability for production employees through protection of body parts such as hands, arms, or even full-body clothing.
