  3. Industrial Robot SCARA: Selective Compliant Assembly Robot Arm The SCARA was designed in 1981 by Sankyo Seiki under the guidance of Hiroshi Makino. The SCARA was designed for packaging food and repetitive car assembly. The robot itself was designed to resemble a human arm both in looks and movement as to reach confined areas in safety.
