Microsoft Seeks Robotics Business
Microsoft released a new authoring tool named "Microsoft Robotics Studio", which allows developers to create their own robots! I found this news in a Japanese Blog which is written by a Microsoft's worker, who explained detailed background of this software and the core of the technology. According to his blog, the tool provided a SOA based execution environment named "Common Concurrency Runtime" and a distributed system named "Distributed System Service", which enables developers to do more loosely connected programming.
I am not sure how it works because I've not yet used this tool and the level of technological requirement seems far beyond my level, but, I guess that this tool is one of Microsoft's archievement through its trial in Web Services such as ".net" or many proposal in standardization of Web Services technology. As you know, now everybody can enjoy "Remix" of many kind of web services such as Amazon ECS, Google Web API and Yahoo! Search API (My "Got2Video" is one of them). This means that many services on WWW has already started to collaborate each other and the users has already benefited from the collaboration on WWW. Don't you think that the fact that Microsoft deployed the same technology in its "Robotics Studio" indicates that many services on WWW and the real world can collaborate as well and users can benefit from it in the near future? This might be a big movement in business...
