You get smart robots powered by a super &#8220;brain&#8221;\u00a0that resides in the cloud. \u00a0Robots can be built to be lightweight and low cost, but their cloud controller\u00a0enables them to be backed with powerful computational capabilities and a library derived from the accumulated experience\u00a0of many other robots.<\/p>\n<p>A report from <a href=\"https:\/\/ww2.frost.com\/news\/press-releases\/frost-sullivan-empowering-robots-cloud-computing\/\">Frost &amp; Sullivan<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.healthcareitnews.com\/news\/cloud-robots-coming-healthcare\"> found that <\/a>&#8220;cloud robotics can be viewed as a convergence of information, learned processes, and intelligent motion or activities with the help of the cloud. It allows to move the locus of &#8216;intelligence&#8217; from onboard to a remote service&#8230; \u00a0The key application sectors for cloud robotics include healthcare, transportation, consumer and manufacturing applications.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/goldberg.berkeley.edu\/\">Ken Goldberg<\/a>, professor at UC Berkeley, <a href=\"https:\/\/bits.blogs.nytimes.com\/2014\/10\/25\/the-robot-in-the-cloud-a-conversation-with-ken-goldberg\/?_r=0\">said that<\/a> when robots are backed by the cloud that \u00a0&#8220;robot learning is going to be greatly accelerated. Putting it a little simply, one robot can spend 10,000 hours learning something, or 10,000 robots can spend one hour learning the same thing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"lightsocial_container\"><div
