This paper introduces R&D activities in IoT (Internet of Things) focusing on the fusion of
the Internet and robotics. The ubiquitous networked robotics (UNR) combining multiple robots with
sensor networks, smartphones, wheelchairs, etc. is described. It includes a few standardizations of the
UNR platform allowing to bridge robot components and service applications. The “Innovate!Osaka”
for promoting the global innovation is also introduced.
