Development of Light-Weight RT-Component (LwRTC) on Embedded Processor -Application to Crawler Control Subsystem in the Physical Agent System-

摘要

Because the RT middleware is only supported by ORBs implemented on PCs, application to a small-scale system and the small-size robot seems to be difficult. To reduce power consumption and developing distributed RT-components on micro processors, application of the RT middleware to the embedded processing system and arbitrary network system are important. In this paper, we report the LwRTC that is the implementation of the RT-component on embedded micro-processors, and the prototype system for the mobile robot using LwRTC
