Building Distributed Robot Systems with ROS2 and Cloud Computing Frameworks
Robots are no longer confined to the lab-they live in the cloud. Cloud Robotics with ROS2 is your definitive guide to building scalable, connected, and intelligent robot systems using AWS and the Robot Operating System 2 (ROS2).
Whether you're managing a single autonomous drone or a global fleet of delivery bots, this book walks you through everything needed to architect, deploy, and manage distributed robotic systems using today's most powerful cloud tools.
What you'll learn inside:
Connecting ROS2-powered robots to the cloud with secure and scalable communication
Deploying robot services on AWS using EC2, Lambda, IoT Core, Greengrass, and ECS
Managing real-time telemetry, diagnostics, and system logs in distributed environments
Using DDS (Data Distribution Service) and ROS2 middleware for cloud-based control
Creating hybrid systems with local autonomy and cloud-level intelligence
Leveraging cloud storage, analytics, and AI models to empower robotics at scale
Monitoring, updating, and debugging robots remotely in production environments
This is more than cloud infrastructure-it's a robotics revolution. From edge computing to fleet management, you'll gain practical, production-ready strategies to build the next generation of autonomous systems.
