Abstract

This paper gives an overview of reflections about more generic robotic architectures models and their associated tools. The objective of our work is not to define a new robot software but rather to specify common robotic requirements for future component-based models. These models could be used as a common-base by the robotic sub-communities whatever the purpose their different robots have been designed for, whatever the targeted hardware, the chosen frameworks or the host operating systems. Even if we are not yet strongly familiar with the specificities of the Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) and with the Domain-Specific Language (DSL), we are self-convinced by the powerful benefits that these two fields could bring to robotics and to robotic architecture models. In this paper, we discuss about the characteristics a robotic architecture model should own to be efficiently designed by software model engineers and easily but efficiently used by robot engineers.
