Abstract

This paper deals with the current trend towards moving from industrial robots to the service or social robotics era. The time when robots populated the environment ‘alone’ is over and networked robotics and the acquisition and understanding of crowd-sourcing is fully supported by the trends in Computer technology.

Cloud Robotics is a new phenomenon supported by Cloud Computing and the main challenges question how these new trends change the tools of Artificial Intelligence and the forms of its contributions to human behavior simulation. The challenging question within this domain is the quality of Human-Robot and Robot-Robot interactions in a general environment or industrial scenario.

The role of emotions seems to be increasingly important and the impact of synthetic robotic emotions on humans is essential to human performance and productivity or entertainment in everyday life. The paper also emphasizes the importance of tele-monitoring, linked with tele-operation, as an important part of the knowledge acquired in cloud robotics and crowd sourcing. The paper draws together certain theoretical predictions on the future of intelligent robotics domains.
