This would require a large government expenditure similar in nature (not in scope) to the effort required to put a man on the moon which developed technologies that had innumerable spin off applications for a broad array of industries.
I read Frank Tobe's robot report regularly and while I don't agree with everything he writes, he is more right than wrong on any given topic related to this industry. The skill and cost required to design / manufacture / program / support a new US based robotics company that could compete with existing Japanese, German, Sweden (now china?) . . . will be very high.
