Abstract

The UPnP (universal plug and play) defines an architecture for pervasive peer-to-peer network connectivity of intelligent appliances. It shares the service oriented architecture with emerging Web service technology, and has many advantages for future robot middleware such as automatic discovery of services and accommodation of dynamic distributed computing environment. However, the UPnP needs some additional features for being used as a robot middleware. This paper discusses them, and presents some requirements when developing a UPnP SDK for robot middleware as well. This paper also presents an experimental result of applying the UPnP to robot components
