Abstract :
Internet and cloud-based robot services and their platforms are becoming attractive. Many related works have been also done, such as DAvinCi, ROS on Android, and RoboEarth. However, when robot services are provided via computer networks, very reliable services are required to deal with short/long-term disconnection between services and robots due to wireless LAN disconnection, robot service problems, system error on robots, and so on. In this paper, we adopt Robot Service Network Protocol (RSNP) as a robot service platform in order to integrate robot services with Internet services. In addition, we propose a method and architecture to realize reliable cloud-based robot services for RSNP in a communication view point.
