Time Synchronization in modular collaborative robots
Carlos San Vicente Gutiérrez, Lander Usategui San Juan, Irati Zamalloa Ugarte +3
A new generation of robot systems which are modular, flexible and safe for human-robot interaction are needed. Existing cobots seem to meet only the later and require a modular app…
Towards a distributed and real-time framework for robots: Evaluation of ROS 2.0 communications for real-time robotic applications
Carlos San Vicente Gutiérrez, Lander Usategui San Juan, Irati Zamalloa Ugarte +1
In this work we present an experimental setup to show the suitability of ROS 2.0 for real-time robotic applications. We disclose an evaluation of ROS 2.0 communications in a roboti…
Real-time Linux communications: an evaluation of the Linux communication stack for real-time robotic applications
Carlos San Vicente Gutiérrez, Lander Usategui San Juan, Irati Zamalloa Ugarte +1
As robotics systems become more distributed, the communications between different robot modules play a key role for the reliability of the overall robot control. In this paper, we…
Robot_gym: accelerated robot training through simulation in the cloud with ROS and Gazebo
Víctor Mayoral Vilches, Alejandro Hernández Cordero, Asier Bilbao Calvo +2
Rather than programming, training allows robots to achieve behaviors that generalize better and are capable to respond to real-world needs. However, such training requires a big am…
Time-Sensitive Networking for robotics
Carlos San Vicente Gutiérrez, Lander Usategui San Juan, Irati Zamalloa Ugarte +1
We argue that Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) will become the de facto standard for real-time communications in robotics. We present a review and classification of the different co…
