COMMUNICATION SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NETWORK BASED ROBOT CONTROL

摘要

A communication system and method for controlling a network-based robot are provided to allow fabrication of a robot by sequentially processing packets and simultaneously processing control parts as available. A robot protocol proxy(500) is configured in a robot, transmits a packet to a control server, and receives a packet from the control server. A robot control program(401) of a control sever calls a corresponding sever API of a program in its local and connects to a sever protocol proxy(600) by the sever API. The server protocol proxy is configured to call a robot internal program(301) of the robot and includes a robot API(Application Programming Interface) configured in the robot. The robot protocol proxy performs a command requested by accessing resources of the robot, creates a response packet including the performing result, and transmits the response packet to the server protocol proxy. Upon receiving the response packet, the server protocol proxy returns the API call result to the program which has first called the API.
