Web Based Virtual Robot Prototyping and
Manufacturing: The Goal

A fully autonomous web / customer
based manufacturing and prototyping
plant for online custom built and
designed manipulators, with complete
simulation, analysis and interactive
correction of the design parameters and
requirements
The Prototype Environment
Overall Design

maintain a global information database.
communicate with the subsystems to update any
changes


receive and report messages from the subsystems

transfer data between the subsystems upon request
check constraints and apply some of the update
rules


maintain design history

deliver reports to the customer with the current status
Database Content
