ITTIA has announced that Wasserbauer has embedded ITTIA DB SQL into its next-gen robot product line, Butler. When building mission-critical embedded systems and devices, ITTIA embedded database software and services enable manufacturers to benefit from existing database skills and experience, and work with greater efficiency and accuracy.

Industrial automation systems, including robotics, are advancing, offering more specialised services and assisting with daily activities. A mobile device is an effective tool of choice to manage and operate the robot, however autonomous-decision making enables the robot to preform complex actions. It needs to collect information from various sensors and build a database to describe its local environment in order to make intelligent decisions.

Providing a safe and efficient way to update and query local data on various embedded platforms, ITTIA DB SQL is a proven choice for robotic data storage. Data is always available to multiple concurrent tasks and can be easily distributed to other robots and control systems.

When a web interface or tablet application is used to provide the robot with human guidance, ITTIA DB SQL supports several popular scripting languages, such as Python, and features database replication to synchronise a robot database directly with Android and other mobile platforms.

ITTIA embedded database software products and services save time and money for customers looking to deploy a low-cost, highly reliable data management infrastructure.
