If you are a web developer or a cloud architect, the world of robotics often feels like a foreign land. We imagine humanoid machines and low-level C code that looks more like math than software. But modern robotics has moved away from monolithic codebases. Instead, it relies on Middlewares, the “glue” that allows different software parts to talk to each other.
Isn't this Rodney Brooks' insight?
