Robotic hybrid system application frame based on multi-core processor architecture

Abstract

The invention describes a robotic hybrid system application frame based on a multi-core processor architecture. In a robotic system which takes an ARM (Advanced RISC Machines) / X86 multi-core processor as a controller, a multi-core parallel processing structure of the ARM / X86 multi-core processor is used for operating the robotic hybrid system application architecture consisting of a real-time operating system, non-real-time operating systems and a system supporting frame on a whole robotic controller so as to provide improved operating system service, wherein the real-time operating system, non-real-time operating systems and the system supporting frame simultaneously operate. In the application frame, one real-time operating system independently operates in one ARM / X86 core, meanwhile, a plurality of non-real-time operating systems operate in other ARM / X86 cores, the operating systems mutually individually occupy processor resources and peripherals, robotic application programs with different real time requirements are independently operated, and the application programs can be used (drawing 1) in a uniform ROS (Robotic Operating System) application node form.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of robots, and relates to a robot hybrid system application framework based on a multi-core processor architecture. Background technique [0002] Robot control is an important field of robotics research, and its requirements for applications are becoming increasingly complex, accompanied by the use of various real-time and non-real-time operating systems to provide system support. Programmers need to use the rich programming resources provided by the operating system to write robot control programs, and also need the real-time support provided by the operating system. The Robotic Operating System (ROS) based on Linux is an open source operating system born to improve the efficiency of robot development, but the non-real-time characteristics of Linux limit the application of the robot operating system ROS in the field of real-time control of robots. However, there are many real-time operating systems on the market at ...

Problems solved by technology

The Robotic Operating System (ROS) based on Linux is an open source operating system born to improve the efficiency of robot development, but the non-real-time characteristics of Linux limit the application of the robot operating system ROS in the field of real-time control of robots.

At present, there are many real-time operating systems on the market. Compared with general-purpose operating systems, most of them have single functions and less system application resources, so it is difficult to implement complex applications conveniently.
