Abstract—The Internet of Robotic Things is an emerging vision that brings together pervasive sensors and objects with robotic and autonomous systems. This survey examines how the merger of robotic and Internet of Things technologies will advance intelligent manufacturing, thus enabling the creation of new, potentially disruptive services. This paper discusses some of the new technological challenges created by this merger and concludes that a truly holistic view is needed but currently lacking.
Index Terms—Internet of things, manufacturing robotics, autonomous systems, intelligent manufacturing, internet of Robotic Things (IoRT), FANUC robot.
