What is the basis of Dr Robots robotic architecture?
Designing hardware for service in space is a rigorous exercise in design efficiency and optimization. The economics of launching any technology into orbit requires constant re-examination of standard solutions and endless refinement to yield the greatest functionality from the fewest resources. Arguably, Dr Robot was born from the space programs where our design engineers cultivated their skills before directing them to terrestrial robotic applications. Dr Robots proprietary distributed computational approach to robotics is fundamentally unique in the mobile robotics industry and offers significant advantages over conventional approaches. With a distributed approach to deploying robots, each unit operates in cooperation with a central PC or server via a persistent wireless link. The robot operates using multiple digital signal processors (DSPs) to control its onboard systems, but the robot offloads its computationally-intensive tasks to the server.
