Advantages and Disadvantages of Automated Control Systems (ACS)

ACS is finding more application in our world today. Applicability of this technology ranges from households to large industries. In today’s industries, there is a high demand for production maximization and automation in everyday life. This has led to a literary review, researching the advantages and disadvantages of the technology. Automated systems have advanced from mere application in buildings or vehicles to performing smart task in aircrafts, spaceships, factories, and ships, etc. This review uses a multidisciplinary lens to examine the subject from a broader perspective. Research papers available in the web of science and Scopus in recent decade is examined to help the researcher pinpoint the benefits and consequences related to the use of ACS. The critical review of literatures led to the conclusion that ACS make life easier for humans, enhance economic growth and can be applied in almost all fields. On the other hand, ACS leads to unemployment and can subdue rather than to serve humans in the near future.
