RoboEarth
RoboEarth is a World Wide Web for robots: a huge network and database where robots can share information and learn from each other about their behavior and their environment. RoboEarth's goal is to allow robotic systems to benefit from the experiences of other robots, paving the way for the rapid development of machine cognition and behavior, and ultimately for more subtle and sophisticated human-machine interaction.
