What does RAS stand for?
Remote access server
What is RAS?
A model for enabling ubiquitous, convenient and on-demand access to a shared pool of computing resources
What does BAAS stand for?
Brain-as-a-service
What is BAAS?
This is the use/application of RAS for robotic control. The cloud computers act as an external brain.
How can we enable BAAS for use with robotics?
With cellular/wireless communication
