The renewed focus on reliability is motivated by emerging applications. Imagine a wireless factory robot in a situation where a worker suddenly steps in front of it and the robot needs to make an immediate decision.

No! You should never use wireless link as part of a decision making system for a robot. It must be done localy with a dedicated real time system. If you can not do it then pay a human to do the work.
