Abstract
In this paper, an offline service discovery method for Internet-based human-robot-environment interaction is proposed with an interaction framework of humans, robots, and environments. It creates a dynamic robot control system with flexible and uncomplicated configuration under Internet environments. To explore the problems in the conventional FIPA agent platform and to provide the offline service discovery, the concept of VDF(Virtual Directory Facilitator), Slave Agents, and EMA(Environment Monitor Agent) is proposed. A number of experiments have been conducted successfully using a home service robot 'ISSAC', a mobile robot, a PDA, and a personal computer. The experiments show that this framework works well and provides some advantages comparing with existing systems.
