RoboPORT

Robotics Cluster

Crowd engineering in robotics: an online platform for the development of ideas and prototypes

RoboPORT is developing a platform that can be used by different stakeholders to join together and develop and implement components for service robotics applications. Open innovation and crowd engineering methods have been key to the success of open source software – methods that have the potential to also transform the way in which robotics hardware is developed. The platform makes available a wide range of developer tools, a library for open source robotics and communication and management tools. This means that customer feedback can be taken into account during the development process.
