Japan certainly have a lot of robots compared to any nations in the world. but I also thought that Japan have roughly 50 percent of the world, that not what the graph depicts. or was that half of Asia? well then that makes sense.

and US only in 9th?! for the world’s largest economy, strongest military, and one of, if not the most, advanced nation in the world, that’s a little low. but then again maybe there’s no co-relation between who have the most robots and who is the world’s strongest.
unless we’re talking about Gundams, Arm Slaves and other combat fighting robots in scifi.
but then again, who gonna release that kind of info to the world, especially with all the secrets US military have…
just rambling…

They were talking about industry robots. Robots used in factories for manufacturing.
