Towards universal access to robotic resources

摘要

This paper describes steps toward making a collection of robots easily accessible to remote users. The current approach is to standardize the interface to an existing robot, provide connectivity to the Internet and provide a Universal Interface to remote users. We leverage existing system software and operating systems to create an easily programmable, flexible system. By providing the system with certain tools, the experimenter is able to automatically create a record of the experiment for future analysis.
