Abstract :
A new server-decentralized Internet architecture based on Jabber for robot remote control is proposed in order to have high availability, performance, scalability, fault tolerance and security. Four components of the architecture: operators, robots, transfer servers and data-keeper are defined and functioned. The robot-controlling data/robot state data are packed with XML stanzas and delivered to the addressed robot/operator through XML streams. In order to test its availability, the architecture is implemented and instanced as a remote control simulation system of Puma560 robot. The system is experimented and a network test is carried out to evaluate the structure; the results show that the architecture is suitable for many kinds of robot remote control scenarios despite the tough network environment
