Secure Scalable IT infrastructure for ROS-robot and IoT. | Make the best use of RaspberryPi. https://rdbox-intec.github.io/homepag…
RDBOX is a IT infrastructure for ROS robots. These is very smart like your ROS robot.
Don’t be surprised, there IT infrastructure is built automatically and maintained automatically.
(DETAIL: Effect on you)
And that is got Effect with only Run the scripts and Burn the SDCARD.
(DETAIL: What you do)
Of course, protect the app at all layers of the OSI reference model.
Please do not worry. You can create an SD card easily by interactive command operation.
This is just an example of RDBOX functionality. You can easily control robots at multiple locations.
Many other functions are available in RDBOX.
How to use
Auto-build Kubernetes cluster(Use Docker as a containerd.) & Secure-Scalable Physical-network optimized for ROS robots.
- Prepare RaspberryPi and AWS or PC. (Please see the wiki for details.)
- Please also refer to the latest release notes.
- If you just want to try RDBOX out, check out the Our Wiki page to give it a whirl. （←英語/日本語の二ヶ国語のマニュアルが用意されています。）

-
One of our utilities, flashRDBOX, allows interactive dependency injection (DI) to RaspberryPi. There is no need for difficult operations.
-
If you own TurtleBot3, you can also experience the deployment of ROS applications.
-
Otherwise, you can learn the procedure for building development environment with RDBOX.
Effect on you
RDBOX based on HypriotOS (Debian GNU/Linux 10)

RDBOX
- A Robotics Developers BOX -
- You can get your only IT infrastructure.
- Provides ALL layers (L1 to L7) of the OSI reference model.
- Mesh Wi-Fi network-covered space by Raspberry Pi
- Strict security
- Compute power provided by Kubernetes computer clusters
- Deploy and update ROS APPs by Kubernetes computer clusters
- Full support for your robot working in on-site.
- It is easy to separate part of the existing Enterprise network.
- Other Robot Development Platform not enough support on-site.
What you do
- Run the Script on your Virtual machine (VirtualBox or AWS).
- Burn the SDCARD Image for your Raspberry Pi.
Features
Make your job easy with 3 features.1. Orchestrate all resources running "ROS robots".
- You will get a simpler and creative development experience than deploying with traditional roslaunch. Furthermore, it becomes easy to control a lot of groups of robots.
- Orchestrate ROS nodes on robots and conputer resources by Kubernetes.
- Allow mixing of x86 and ARM architecture CPU.
- k8s master will run on AWS EC2 or VirtualBox on your PC.
- Connect with the robots and others by Mesh Wi-Fi Network.
- Connect with the Clouds/On-Premise by VPN Network.
2. Make It yourself!!
- The RDBOX Edge devices builds with Raspberry Pi 3B/3B+.
- There is no worry that the back port will be installed. (All source code and hardware are disclosed.)
- Raspberry Pi provides you edge computing and Wi-Fi network and environmental sensors and more.
- Provide assembly procedure and original SD card image.
3. NETWORK CONNECT
- Easily set up a dedicated local area network for robots.
- Simply connect RDBOX in between the internet and your service robot. In one simple step, you can build a local area network and development environment. No knowledge of internet or networking is necessary.
- Many network applications, including NTP, are offered with the product. Automate your network robot management.
- All you need is a power source. Cover the whole movable range of mobile robots with a Wi-Fi network.
Compared with other robotics platforms.
3 Advantages compared to competitor's "robot development platform".1. The RDBOX Provides ALL layers (L1 to L7) of the OSI reference model.
- Competitor's "robot development platform" does not support it. You
may need to pay a great deal of money to a specialist for consultation.
- Providing access points via mesh Wi-Fi. The robot just connects to the access point.
- It is possible to get security measures such as VPN and firewall
andmore..., and convenient functions such as network application.
2. The RDBOX can be made with general equipment.
3. The RDBOX take in the good points of other companies' robot development platforms.
- It can be used by combining "simulator linkage" and "existing API service" that other companies are good at.
- Object Detection API
- Reinforcement learning by Gazebo.
- and more..

Our Mission
Solve: Short of talented engineers (48,000 people in Japan in 2020)
- Robotics is a complex technology.
- Therefore, the backbone of the engineer is different. Naturally, IT skills of each engineer are not constant.
- The use of IT technology is essential to build a robot system that links various types of service robots and IoT devices.
RDBOX (a IT infrastructure for ROS robots.) Boosts the productivity of engineers with various backbones.
- for Engineer with various backbones.
- Create opportunities to experience "Advanced IT technologies".
- for Advanced IT Engineer
- Provides easy customization and high affinity to existing modules. (like a ToolBOX)
- for Robotics beginners
- Master the standard development process.(high productivity.)
Roadmap
- Portable version
- Multipoint connection
- Improved fault tolerance (multiple sites version)
- App Market
- Multi-OS GUI SDWriter
- aws and nvidia, cooperation
- Create dedicated H/W
- Docker File Generator
- k8s. yaml file Generator
- elastic plug-in
