The actual reason is space-flight aesthetics, right?
Space stuff itself being white for insulation purposes.
I think the actual reason is that it looks scifi and sick.
Real working robots are usually yellow or orange. KUKA may be the reason for this as it seems to be their brand color as well.
ABB robots that I’ve seen have all been orange too, but on their website it’s funny because they promote white ones, but I. The background they’re all orange.
Wait... KUKA?!
(That's means cunt in some Spanish speaking countries.)
Yup, but it’s a German company.

I know.
And making them danger colored is important too. Since soft squish humans need to keep clear of them.
