Now, internet for robots

London: A world wide web for robots to learn from each other and share tips and information has been developed. The world wide web, called RoboEarth, will be tested in a hospital setting at Eindhoven

Four robots will use the system to complete a series of tasks, including serving drinks to patients in the mocked-up hospital room.

The four robots selected to test the system in a public demonstration will "work collaboratively" to help patients, he told the BBC.

One robot will upload a map of the room so that others can find their way around it, others will attempt to serve drinks to patients.

The goal of RoboEarth is to allow robotic systems to benefit from the experience of other robots, paving the way for rapid advances in machine cognition and behaviour, and ultimately, for more subtle and sophisticated human-machine interaction, RoboEarth said on its website.

"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," van de Molengraft said.

"A task like opening a box of pills can be shared on RoboEarth, so other robots can also do it without having to be programmed for that specific type of box," he added.
