Cloud Computing in Robotics and Automation Systems

Abstract With the use of cloud infrastructure and its protocol set of IOT, resources have the capability to provide benefits to robots and automation system. The operation of robots and automation systems are considered to be relying on data through network to support. This survey is organized around four potential benefits: 1) Big Data: access information of images, trajectories and descriptive data; 2) Cloud Computing: demand for statistical analysis, learning and motion planning is done through parallel grinding; 3) collective robot learning: robot sharing trajectories, control policies and outcomes; 4) Human computation: It is use to tap human skills for analyzing images and video, classification, learning, error recovery by using crowd sourcing. We can also improve robot and automation system using cloud by providing access to a) Datasheets, publication, models, benchmark and simulation tools b) open competition for design and system and c) open source software.
