Abstract :
This paper illustrates a new, open source toolkit enabling the seamless integration between robots and popular Internet-based teleconference systems. The toolkit has been designed to leverage a number of standards and to be as open and extensible as possible. This paper describes the rationale for the design of the new toolkit, and illustrates its implementation and its application to two popular robot platforms.
