RoboticBase-core

This repository is a core components of "RoboticBase". The latest version (0.5) conforms to FIWARE Release 7.8.1.

Description

"RoboticBase" is a robot management platform based on FIWARE which enables you to manage and operate many kinds of robots and IoT devices as interactions of contexts.

"RoboticBase" allows robots to collaborate with IoT devices, Open Data, human beings and so on. You can connect a robot to "RoboticBase" using the open APIs of the robot, and operate the robot through those APIs. In turn, "RoboticBase" has an ability to manage ROS. If you connect a ROS robot to "RoboticBase", you can operate the robot directly without restrictions.
For example, you can deploy a ROS program to the robot and access the raw data of the robot through "RoboticBase".
