Robotics Middleware
Robotics Middleware is a software layer that facilitates communication and coordination between different components of a robotic system. It acts as a bridge, allowing various hardware and software modules to work together seamlessly, regardless of their underlying technologies. This is crucial in robotics, where multiple sensors, actuators, and algorithms need to interact efficiently.
By providing standardized interfaces and protocols, Robotics Middleware simplifies the development process for robotic applications. Developers can focus on creating specific functionalities without worrying about the complexities of integrating diverse systems. Popular examples of such middleware include Robot Operating System (ROS) and OpenRTM-aist.
