A network and repository of data, where robots can share and learn from each other about the tasks they perform. The problem right now is that robots are often developed specifically for one task. Everyday changes that happen all the time in our environment make all the programmed actions unusable. RoboEarth lets robots learn new tasks and situations from each other. The system also allows computing to be carried out using its cloud engine, meaning that robots need not necessarily have the required processing power or store the information themselves. Data stored in RoboEarth includes software components, maps for navigation, task instructions and object recognition models.
