MyRobots.com is a social network for robots and smart objects. In the same way humans use social networks to interact and collaborate with other humans, robots can benefit from being connected to other robots. [1][2][3][4]. In the same way humans benefit from socializing, collaborating and sharing robots can benefit from those interactions, too, by sharing their sensor information giving insight on their perspective of their current state.
History
MyRobots has been launched in December 2011 and is a subdivision of RobotShop[5][6]. MyRobots is one of the firt Cloud Robotics initiative. Cloud robotics happens when robots are connected to the Internet. Then, by doing so, robots become augmented with more capacity and intelligence. The cloud lets them communicate with other machines and serve their human operators better. Connected robots equal augmented robots. By collaborating with other machines and humans, robots transcend their physical limitations and become more useful and capable, since they can delegate parts of their tasks to more suitable parties.[7]
API
MyRobots uses the Open Source ThingSpeak API[8].
MyRobots App Store
Right now, other app stores (e.g. the Apple App Store) focus on selling applications that need to be downloaded, installed, and run on a physical device. MyRobot Apps Store, although sells downloadable apps too, plans to develop applications that will run on the cloud. This will free computation time and resources on the robots and will make a single app compatible with many different robotic platforms[9].
