Building a PaaS for Robotics with Kubernetes
summary
Claims a working PaaS that moves robotics workloads from a pre-Docker LXE stack to Kubernetes using Docker + pods and CRI-O runtimes, reuses Open Service Broker API to provision and bind cloud and device services, and composes apps via a package abstraction deployed with Helm and CNI. Demonstrated two Roombas offloading SLAM to remote AWS GPUs to build 3D maps and a low‑latency teleoperated drone flown from a browser across continents within acceptable latency, with cross‑compile builds via OpenShift and QEMU.
