Rti Connext Dds Arm64. 9/12/2019 Data doesn't always have to be big data to have a huge effect on the way we live. Whether it's big data or small data, data management is increasingly a thorny issue.For, data management is at the heart of a key challenge: improving human-to-robot communication to make space exploration easier and safer.' RTI’s Connext DDS Cert is the first DDS implementation evaluated to DO-178C. It is available with a complete Level A Certification Package produced by Verocel, a leader in mission-critical software verification with a proven track record of DO-178 certifications.

Real-Time Innovations (RTI) announces that 634AI has selected RTI Connext DDS for real-time connectivity between its MAESTRO system and its Autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR) platforms. The Connext databus enables applications to work together as an integrated unit, while delivering real-time connectivity between systems. The result is a central control tower that can streamline the management and control of AMR tasks on an industrial floor.

As companies deploy systems from different vendors, those systems will run with disparate or proprietary operating systems, navigation systems and fleet management systems. Interoperability becomes a huge challenge. The 634AI MAESTRO unifies the control and management of AMRs into a single centralized AI-based system.

“The motivation for creating our MAESTRO system was helping our customers transform the way they fulfill everyday indoor tasks,” said Onn Fenig, CEO at 634AI. “RTI Connext DDS helped us create a central control tower that can streamline the management and control of any mobile task on an industrial floor. MAESTRO’s top-view visibility enables customers to achieve safer, more controlled and more effective floor operation all through a single system, and at a fraction of the price of today’s solutions.”

RTI Connext DDS software supports fast, reliable communication between the MAESTRO system and individual AMRs with near-zero latency for critical data over Wi-Fi networks. With Connext as the underlying communication framework, 634AI is able to add new messaging and devices seamlessly, with zero latency and minimal effort. Building on RTI’s proven software connectivity platform, 634AI now has a common, shared infrastructure to develop, deploy and maintain fully interoperable systems.

Some of the data-centric features of MAESTRO include:

• Real-time overview of the entire industrial floor
• Continuous tracking and tracing of AMRs
• Recording of movement and inventory
• Real-time path adjustments

“634AI is achieving groundbreaking feats by developing a solution that not only reduces vendor costs, but allows users a higher degree of productivity and innovation in a way that is truly unique in the robotics vehicle market,” said Bob Leigh, Senior Market Development Director at RTI. “At RTI, our mission is to power the next wave of autonomous systems and provide the underlying connectivity framework that supports this automation revolution. Through this effort, RTI and 634AI are tackling the biggest challenges associated with widespread AMR adoption and demonstrating the importance of future-proof connectivity software.”

Real-Time Innovations (RTI), the Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity company, has announced RTI Labs, a free program for customers that provides early access to new technology developed for the IIoT. Customers who take advantage of RTI Labs have the opportunity to optimise their IIoT systems with advanced technical capabilities and potentially influence the RTI product roadmap.

RTI Labs is a mutually beneficial program, fostering open communication and collaborative efforts between customers and RTI technical teams. The program grants end-users insight and access to experimental and complementary software projects, downloads, tools, and the chance to provide feedback to RTI engineers and product managers. With the introduction of this program, RTI has created a mechanism to share the full range of RTI-developed technologies at various development stages, allowing software developers to increase their knowledge and efficiency when architecting IIoT systems of systems, and to reduce the time, effort and resources spent on creating alternative solutions.

RTI Labs includes detailed project descriptions, links to relevant content and documentation, tutorials and videos. It also provides users with the current status of these projects, insight into future plans and notifications of any updates. Users are encouraged to evaluate various aspects of the program and submit feedback directly to the RTI technical team. This feedback will be considered while prioritizing updates and features to include in future product releases, creating a unique customer service dynamic that delivers immediate value to the end-user, providing free technical resources and know-how, and the opportunity to directly influence technology crucial to their IIoT system enablement. It also empowers RTI with insights into evolving customer needs as the company develops RTI Connext DDS for future IIoT systems.

“Our number one priority as a company is going above and beyond in our customer support and relationships, which was the driving force behind the creation of RTI Labs,” said Jan Van Bruaene, vice president of engineering at RTI. “We encourage our customers to engage with our engineers and speak openly about their unique experiences and processes in implementing our products. This feedback is invaluable and enables us to continue improving the utility of our products and contribution to our customers’ success. We are proud of the user community we have built at RTI and recognise our users’ impact in solidifying our role as a leader in IIoT connectivity software.”

RTI Labs launches with three new experimental projects, each of which offers value to customers across markets:

• RTI Connector for Connext DDS: A quick and easy way to access the power and functionality of Connext DDS from a variety of different scripting languages, such as Python, JavaScript and Lua. It allows developers to leverage these languages, which are often used to create test suites, to simulate incomplete or unavailable system components, and for rapid development.
• RTI System Designer: Allows users to graphically configure a system that uses Connext DDS. This includes the topics of data being exchanged, the schema for each and the Quality of Service (QoS) offered by each publisher and required by each subscriber. RTI System Designer enables system architects to design and configure their IIoT systems through a graphical interface and eliminates the need to hand-write textual configuration files. It also provides a guided configuration experience that makes it easy to learn Connext DDS concepts.
• RTI Cloud Discovery Service: Provides a discovery mechanism that can be used in environments that do not support multicast, as is sometimes the case with public cloud services and firewalls. In these instances, applications can use RTI Cloud Discovery Service to register their presence and look up their peers. Because the service is only used for discovery and not to broker run-time data exchange, it does not impact system latency, throughput, reliability or resilience.

RTI Labs is free of cost and available today. RTI will be adding additional experimental projects to the program within the next few months, including a feedback mechanism and additional tutorials and videos to support product downloads.
