Robotics next cross: cloud robot

2016/7/1      view:
What is a cloud of robot?Simply put, cloud robot is the combination of cloud computing and robotics.Like other network terminal, the robot itself does not need to store all the information, or super computing ability, is in need of can connect the server and to obtain the needed information.
To more detailed understanding of the cloud the robot, the first thing to understand cloud computing.According to the encyclopedia is introduced, the concept of cloud computing have narrow cloud computing and broad cloud computing:
Narrow cloud computing refers to the delivery and IT infrastructure usage patterns, refers to in the form of on-demand, easy to extend through the network to obtain the required resources (hardware, platforms, software).Provide resources network is called the "cloud"."Cloud" of the resources in the user view can be unlimited extension, and can be obtained at any time, according to the need to use, extend at any time, by using cost.This feature is often referred to as the IT infrastructure like water and electricity use.
Generalized cloud computing refers to the service delivery and use of the model, through the network to on-demand, easy extension method to obtain the required services.This service can be IT and software, Internet related, also can make any other service.
Cloud computing "cloud", can be understood as a "massive" "more"."Cloud" is that some can self maintenance and management of virtual computing resources, usually in the form of some large server cluster, including computing servers, storage servers, bandwidth and so on.Cloud computing will all computing resources together, and by the software to realize automatic management, without human involvement.Such as Google cloud computing has millions of servers.
From now on, you can see that the cloud does not mean that a robot a robot and not one kind of robot, it is the robot information storage and access of an academic concept.The benefits of this kind of information access way is obvious.Robot through the camera, for example, could get some photos of the surrounding environment, uploaded to the server, the server can retrieve similar pictures, can calculate the path of the robot to avoid obstacles, can also use the information stored, convenient retrieval of other robots.All robots can be Shared database, reduce the development time for developers.
Humanoids2010 meeting many experts compare to cloud robot, perhaps cloud robotics is under a leapfrog development of robotics.
