چکیده

The technological developments in distributed systems have led to new telerobotic applications, such as virtual laboratories and remote maintenance of complex equipment. These applications must satisfy both the general requirements of distributed computing, e.g. location transparency and interoperability, and the domain-specific requirements of reconfigurability, guaranteed performance, real-time operation, and cooperation among robots and sensory systems. In this paper, we describe a software framework for distributed telerobotic systems exploiting advanced CORBA features, including Asynchronous Method Invocation and real-time priorities. The framework allows development of portable multithreaded clientserver applications supporting concurrent and preemptable actions in the target robot system, and has been evaluated in a laboratory setup including a robot manipulator and two cameras accessible by multiple clients.

Evaluation of data distribution techniques in a CORBA-based telerobotic system

Distributed telerobotic applications exploiting Internet-related technologies, such as virtual laboratories and on-line robots, require effective techniques for timely delivery of sensory data to remote clients. In these systems, there is a need to distribute increasing quantities of sensory data to a potentially large number of clients during system operation. In this paper, we describe and ev...
