Google's Cloud Robotics Core is an open source platform that provides infrastructure essential to building and running robotics solutions for business automation. Cloud Robotics Core makes managing robot fleets easy for developers, integrators, and operators. It enables:
- packaging and distribution of applications
- secure, bidirectional robot-cloud communication
- easy access to Google Cloud services such as ML, logging, and monitoring.
Cloud Robotics Core is open source and pre-alpha. Support is currently limited to a small set of early access partners. We will gladly accept contributions and feedback, but we are making no stability or support guarantees at this point in time.
Documentation of the platform and related How-to guides can be found at: https://googlecloudrobotics.github.io/core/
If you want to get involved, please refer to CONTRIBUTING.md, reach out to [email protected] or ask Stack Overflow questions with #google-cloud-robotics.
Most interesting bits are under src:
- app_charts: contains kubernetes resources for the core platform and apps
- bootstrap: provisioning for the cloud (terraform) and the robot (debian package)
- go/java/proto/python: the code that goes into images referenced from
app_charts
The root directory contains a deploy.sh script for building and installing the software. More
details on that are in the building from sources guide.
