Robotic Systems RFI
Status: RFI has been issued; responses pending.

Caution: Up-to-date
information is available on the
member-only page.
Robotic systems can be roughly defined as “systems that
provide intelligent services and information by interacting with their
environment, including human beings, via the use of various sensors,
actuators and human interfaces”. The physical characteristics of a
robotic system can have a large variation that includes mobile robots,
humanoid robots, pet robots, manipulator robots, autonomous vehicles,
robot house, etc. In the same way, the span of robotic system
applications can be very broad, including but not limited to
communication and entertainment robots, lifestyle support robots, rescue
robots, transportation robots, medical robots, etc. Finally, robotic
systems must deal with technological fields and issues of various
complexities such as hardware control, intelligent algorithms,
information processing and dispatching, safety, reliability, etc. All
these aspects make it difficult to develop cost-effective yet
functionally attractive robotic systems that will appeal to potential
end-users and ensure the growth of the robotic market. We believe that
modularization of robotic systems and standardization of robotic
technology components will greatly help reduce the development and
integration cost of robotic systems. Therefore, this RFI seeks
information which will be used to direct future standardization efforts
in the area of reusability and interoperability of robotics technology.
Sharing your experiences will be particularly helpful in this effort,
especially to: · Determine the areas that need standardization and their
respective priorities · Identify recurrent functional / architectural
patterns in existing robotic systems so as to propose common platform
independent models · Help define working groups to work on potential
RFPs We are seeking information with regards to:: · Identification of
areas where Robotics Technology is used · Needs for standardization of
Robotics Technology · Technical information such as existing
implementations, standards, requirements, models, and theoretical
studies on Robotics Systems
