An autonomous Mobile Robot System based on Serverless Computing and Edge Computing

Strengthen by Artificial Intelligence (AI) and complexly integrated sensors, an autonomous mobile robot (AMR) is extensively applied in coping with various human resources tasks in indoor office environments. However, implementing an AMR system from scratch needs a strong Electric Engineer background due to the complexity of robot-controlling. Besides, Communication between robot-server, sensor, and client-service also increases the difficulty and time-cost in AMR developing. In this paper, the AMR system we proposed aims to be implemented by people without a EE background, and we will achieve this by employing Robot Operating System. Besides, the AMR system should work independently but still capable of responding to human requests. We will demonstrate a serverless could structure that includes the client-side service and integrate the edge-computing, which in charge of the immediacy-demanding job.
