- | The RoboEarth Cloud Engine, aka Rapyuta, is a platform as a service ( [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cloud_computing#Service_Models|PaaS]] ) framework for robots. The framework is built upon a clone based model [1]. Each robot connected to the RoboEarth Cloud Engine will have a system level clone on the cloud giving them the ability to move their heavy computation into the cloud. In addition, the system clones are tightly (high bandwidth) interconnected providing a useful platform for muti-robot deployments. | + | Rapyuta. a.k.a. the RoboEarth Cloud Engine, is an open source cloud robotics framework. The framework is built upon a clone based model [1]. Each robot connected to the RoboEarth Cloud Engine will have a system level clone on the cloud giving them the ability to move their heavy computation into the cloud. In addition, the system clones are tightly (high bandwidth) interconnected providing a useful platform for muti-robot deployments. |
The system level clone is implemented using linux containers, a light weight virtual mechanism. Therefore the terms [container] and [clone] will be used interchangeably in the documentation. Communication with the robots happens over the websocket protocol, providing a full duplex communication channel between the robot and the cloud with predefined messages. | The system level clone is implemented using linux containers, a light weight virtual mechanism.
