Paper Abstract:
|
While sensors and robots are prevalent in modern electronic devices, there still exists a general lack of interoperability
between them. It would be nice if all real world objects could speak the same language, regardless of their differing
properties. This work combines the development of two software platforms, Microsoft Invisible Computing and
Microsoft Robotics Studio, to provide the means for a real-time sensor network to achieve this goal. Microsoft Invisible
Computing, a light-weight operating system and communications middleware compatible with several existing hardware
platforms, allows real-time communication with sensors and robots, along with the means to send and receive
XML/SOAP messages. Microsoft Robotics Studio, on the other hand, can provide the decentralized orchestration,
simulation and user interface necessary for sensor network nodes to interoperate efficiently. Ultimately, this work lays a
foundation for a world of compatible objects. |
