Abstract
A recent evolution in the field of Internet of Things (IoT) is the interdisciplinary domain involving smart automation and robotics implemented by the techniques of Internet of Things (IoT), famously known as Internet of Robotic Things (IoRT). This emerging technology is adopted in various sectors such as health care, manufacturing industries, economic, information technology and several other fields. Persistent sensors and actuators involved in robotics and automation are brought together by the emerging vision of Internet of Robotic Things. The domains of robotics and Internet of Things (IoT) cannot be viewed separately hence integrated together to form the novel domain—Internet of Robotic Things where the technologies of robotics are implemented in the scenarios of IoT. This chapter aims to provide an overview of possible solutions for various issues in smart automation environment and applications of robotics using Internet of Things (IoT). Envisioning dense heterogeneous devices communicating with each other to accomplish various objectives in the field of automation and robotics using Internet of Things (IoT) is the aim of this chapter. This technology can increase efficiency at reduced cost, significantly reducing manual intervention by increasing automation process visioning by SCADA systems. Industrial automation involving Internet of Things (IoT) has the goal of self-configuration, self-organization, self-healing system, scalability with less power consumption compatible to global standards. Involvement of robotics in the field of Internet of Things (IoT) potentially changes the process of production where the operations are performed rapidly in an accurate way leading to tremendous value in the field of automation. These two domains are converged and developed to provide the concept, architecture, involved technologies, challenges and applications and future work in order to cover (Internet of Robotic Things) IoRT comprehensively.
