Glossary
URDF
URDF is a file format used to describe a robot’s physical structure, including its joints, links, and dimensions. This information is crucial for robot simulation and control.
Field Robotics
Field robots operate outdoors in unstructured environments, performing tasks like agriculture, construction, and inspection. They require specialized features for navigation and adaptation.
AMRs
AMRs are self-driving robots that navigate using sensors and AI, performing tasks in warehouses, factories, and other settings without constant human supervision.
Robots-as-a-Service
The RaaS model allows access to robots without the upfront investment. Providers handle maintenance and upgrades, making robotics solutions more accessible.
ROS
ROS is a popular open-source framework for robot software development. It provides tools and libraries for building robot applications, simplifying complex tasks.
Teleoperation
Learn about teleoperation, a method for controlling robots remotely using joysticks, haptic feedback, or other interfaces, enabling tasks in hazardous environments.
