Showcasing FLUIDOS in Robotic Logistics: A Dynamic Approach to Edge-Cloud Continuum

FLUIDOS continues to revolutionize the edge-cloud continuum with its innovative robotic logistics capabilities. In this latest demonstration by Robotnik Automation, a robot autonomously manages resource allocation and task scheduling, showcasing the power of the FLUIDOS framework in action.

The demo illustrates how resource-intensive tasks, such as navigation, are dynamically offloaded to an edge cluster to optimize CPU usage on the robot. Using RViz2, the robot navigates autonomously, highlighting efficient collaboration between local and remote resources. When the edge cluster becomes unavailable, the robot seamlessly transitions to local processing, maintaining its operational continuity and demonstrating FLUIDOS’ resilience.

Key highlights include:

• Efficient Resource Offloading: Resource-intensive tasks are offloaded to the edge cluster, significantly reducing CPU load on the robot.
• Dynamic Rescheduling: Upon edge cluster unavailability, tasks are rescheduled locally without interruption.
• Network Efficiency: Smooth communication between the robot and the edge server, with optimized network traffic.

This demonstration underlines FLUIDOS’ potential in transforming robotic logistics, providing robust and adaptable solutions that optimize performance and ensure operational continuity in real-world scenarios.
