Abstract

Systems and methods for designing a robotic system architecture are disclosed. The methods include defining a software graph including a first plurality of nodes, and a first plurality of edges representative of data flow between the first plurality of tasks, and defining a hardware graph including a second plurality of nodes, and a second plurality of edges. The methods may include mapping the software graph to the hardware graph, modeling a latency associated with a computational path included in the software graph for the mapping between the software graph and the hardware graph, allocating a plurality of computational tasks in the computational path to a plurality of the hardware components to yield a robotic system architecture using the latency, and using the robotic system architecture to configure the robotic device to be capable of performing functions corresponding to the software graph.
