While the precise start and end of the IR is debatable, it marked a major turn- 10,000

and the utilization of water wheels transformed manual labor from homes to
powered machines in factories. The second IR emerged, between 1870 and
1900, with the introduction of the internal combustion engine, electric power
generation, running water, communication, chemicals, and petroleum. It is

Drivers in the Internet age include wireless networking, cloud computing,

management, and analytics to the cloud. The concept of cloud robotics can be
on demand, sharing data and “open-source” code such as the rising popular-
ity of the robot operating system, regular backups, software updates, and
security maintenance. Huge data centers hosting the cloud can collect data,
accumulate shared datasets, perform analytics, and take corrective action.
Large companies have been the major users of robots since they can afford to
maintain full-time costly resources in coding, operating, and maintaining
them. Small companies, benefitted by the IoT and the Industrial Internet (see
the following section), can use robots with economics.

ness your brain power. Steve Jobs once said “innovation has nothing to do
with how many R&D dollars you have. When Apple came up with the Mac,
IBM was spending at least 100 times more on R&D. It’s not about money. It’s
about the people you have, how you lead, and how much you get it.”
Disruptive Innovation and Technologies
“Disruptive innovation,” a term coined by Professor Clayton Christensen at
Harvard Business School, is defined as “products, services, or business models
that initially target small, seemingly unprofitable customer segments, but
eventually evolve to take over the marketplace.”42 Disruptive innovation is
often centered on customer problems. It is simple yet convincing, accessible,
and most time cheaper than its competitors.43
