Say hello to the Internet of Robotic Things

The latest Internet of Things (IoT) sub-segment to emerge is the Internet of Robotic Things, where intelligent robots operate with relative autonomy. As reported by ZDNet, ABI Research is championing the emergence of IoT-powered robots. In essence the Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT) describes devices that are able to combine data from various sources, monitor events, determine a best course of action and manipulate objects in the real world. And though the IoRT concept has been kicking around for a few years, ABI’s practice director of robotics Dan Kara says the technology is still in the early stages. However, he says new innovations are starting to appear in this space, like iRobot which uses Amazon Web Services to connect consumer robotic devices to the cloud. He says that increasing investment in IoT initiatives and cloud-based technology will accelerate innovations in the robotics sector. “Both commercial and consumer robotics systems can benefit from these capabilities,” he said.
