AWS RoboMaker
Develop, test, and deploy robotics applications at scale.
Overview
AWS RoboMaker is a service that makes it easy to develop, test, and deploy intelligent robotics applications at scale. RoboMaker extends the most widely used open-source robotics software framework, Robot Operating System (ROS), with connectivity to AWS cloud services. This includes AWS machine learning services, monitoring services, and analytics services that enable a robot to stream data, navigate, communicate, comprehend, and learn.
✨ Key Features
- Cloud-based simulation
- Managed ROS and Gazebo environments
- Large-scale parallel simulations
- Integration with AWS services (S3, CloudWatch, etc.)
- Robotics development environment in the cloud
- Fleet management for robot deployment
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Scalable cloud-based simulation
- Deep integration with the AWS ecosystem
- Managed infrastructure for ROS and Gazebo
Unique Value: Enables robotics developers to run large-scale simulations in the cloud without the need to manage their own infrastructure, accelerating development and testing cycles.
🎯 Use Cases (5)
✅ Best For
- Used by robotics companies to automate their testing and deployment pipelines.
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Users who require a desktop-based, offline simulation environment.
- Simulations that require very low latency interaction.
🏆 Alternatives
Unlike desktop simulators, AWS RoboMaker is designed for scalable, parallel simulations in the cloud. It offers a more managed and integrated experience for ROS developers compared to setting up simulations on generic cloud compute instances.
