Abstract:
1. A method performed by a processor, the method comprising: receiving information from a robotic device, wherein the robotic device includes a mechanical actuator, wherein the information indicates an amount of available memory on the robotic device, a type of operating system on the robotic device, and a type of sensor available to the robotic device; determining data responsive to the information, wherein the data includes instructions executable by the robotic device; determining an order at which to send the data to the robotic device, wherein data associated with robot functionality to be performed at a first time is given a first priority and data associated with robot functionality to be performed at a subsequent time is given a second priority, wherein the first priority is higher than the second priority; adjusting the order based on the amount of available memory on the robotic device, the type of operating system on the robotic device, and the type of sensor available to the robotic device; and providing to the robotic device an amount of the data responsive to the information that is storable in the amount of available memory on the robotic device and in an order such that data that pertains to the first priority is sent first.
