Is ABB's YuMi the Next Generation of Collaborative Robot?

ABB has been a leading robotics company for a very long time. With industrial robots of every size, pre-engineered robotic cells and embedded force torque control, they produce a bunch of stuff that pretty much covers every aspect of industrial robotics. They only needed to add a collaborative robot to their product line to complete it. Well, this is now done. YuMi, their first collaborative robot has been commercially launched at the Hannover Fair on April 15 2015.
