A CLOUD COMPUTING PARADIGM IN ROBOT MOTION PLANNING: INNOVATIONS AND PROSPECTS
The paper presents a new approach to the simulation of robot motion planning using cloud computing technologies. Robot motion planning plays a crucial role in robotics and enables robots to efficiently control and perform tasks in various environments. Using cloud computing, the proposed simulation framework offers significant advantages in terms of scalability, resource utilization, and availability. The paper begins with an overview of the potential applications of cloud computing in robot motion planning and simulation tasks. It then presents the architecture and components of a cloud-based simulation framework, highlighting its advantages over traditional methods. Overall, this paper provides valuable insights into the integration of cloud technologies into robotics, paving the way for more efficient and scalable simulation solutions (pp.41-51).
