RSi-cloud for integrating Robot Services with internet services

This paper proposes the RSi Research Cloud (RSi-Cloud), which enables integration of robot services with internet services and mash-up of robot services. The feature of RSi-Cloud is to use a standardized communication protocol, that is Robot Service Network Protocol (RSNP). By using the robot service specification, we can provide novel services combining various kinds of service components. In addition, since RSNP is determined based on web services, many researchers and engineers in the internet field can join robot service development. We also implement a surveillance camera service as a prototype system using the proposed platform. This paper reports the implementation result.
