I'm in Robotics and I also do computer vision work. Mathematics both "advanced" and otherwise is essential to my day to day. Even when most of the work I'm doing comes from an external library an understanding of the math behind the functions is the difference between success and frustrating failure.

The old adage "another day passed without the need to use algebra" applies to me when inverted: it's rare that a day passes without me using algebra.
