Overview

FIROS is a tool that helps connecting robots to the cloud. For this purpose it uses the Robot Operating System (ROS, http://) and the FIWARE Context Broker (http://catalogue.fiware.org/enablers/publishsubscribe-context-broker-orion-context-broker) as a way to publish and listen robot's data.

FIROS works as a translator between the robotics field and the cloud world, transforming ROS messages into NGSI to publish them in the cloud, and vice versa.

Visit https://github.com/Ikergune/firos/blob/master/README.md to know how to install and configure FIROS. To execute FIROS run:

• $ rosrun firos core.py
