An Investigation On A Mobile Robot In A Ros Enabled Cloud Robotics Environment, Theodore C. Smith
An Investigation On A Mobile Robot In A Ros Enabled Cloud Robotics Environment, Theodore C. Smith
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In modern day robotic applications, the use of cloud computing is being considered as a viable option giving rise to development of cloud robotics environment. Robots are also being developed to operate under an organized framework of robot operating system (ROS) for flexibility and better integration with robots of different types. In this work, an investigation is presented on the development of a mobile robotic platform and its integration in a ROS enabled cloud robotics environment. A mobile robotic platform was built with different sensors including a depth camera, integrated with Arduino and raspberry pi for interfacing the sensors, the …

Networked Heterogeneous Systems In A Ros-Enabled Cloud Environment, Christopher Reid
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
It is important in the development of cloud robotics that the challenges presented by transferring computational loads to networked resources are properly addressed. The challenges include network latency, data integrity, security, and privacy. The objective of the present work is to investigate the issues of latency and data integrity in a representative cloud robotics environment. The present work involves setting up a cloud robotics network in an open-source Robot Operating System (ROS) framework and carrying out investigations on the levels of latency and reduction in data integrity as utilization of the network increases. In this study, a virtual datacenter has …
