Companies currently producing consumer service robots have seen most applications geared around all of the following categories EXCEPT:

The focus on consumer service robots has indeed been extensive in several categories, particularly health care, education, and entertainment. In health care, robots assist with tasks ranging from surgery to patient care and support. In the education sector, robots enhance learning experiences, particularly in engaging students with interactive technologies. Entertainment robots, such as robotic pets or companion robots, also have garnered significant attention due to their appeal to various consumer demographics.

Transportation and logistics, while an important area for automation and robotics, often see applications directed toward industrial or commercial settings rather than directly impacting the consumer market. Most consumer service robots are not primarily designed for logistical tasks that involve transporting goods or managing supplies. Therefore, this option represents a category where consumer-focused applications of service robots are less developed compared to the others mentioned.
