Abstract:
1. Robot system comprising: at least two robots; at least two processing units, the processing units being connected to each other via a network bus for data transmission and each being related to a respective robot of the at least two robots; and distributed sensor means for gathering first and/or second measurement data within a local extension of the robot system, the first measurement data gathered by at least one first sensor means being transmissible to at least one of the processing of the at least two processing units that is related thereto, and second measurement data gathered by at least one second sensor means being feedable into the network bus and provided to the at least two processing units connected thereto for analyzing the second measurement data as a variable dynamic share of processing unit workload, the at least two processing units being configured to feed analysis result-data into the network bus; wherein the first measurement data are data to be analyzed in less than a predetermined length of time and the second measurement data are data to be analyzed in greater than the predetermined length of time.
