What is the RobotShop App Store
The idea is similar to the Apple App Store, but here at RobotShop we sell Robot Apps for all robotic platforms, regardless of who made them or what are their operating system. We just love all robots.
At the moment, we sell mostly downloadable robot apps, but we envision a future where applications will run on the robotic cloud. This will free computation time and resources on the robots and will make a single app compatible with many different robotic platforms.
I'm a Developer, Why Should I Join?
We believe the future is digital. Tomorrow, the intelligence behind your robots will not be restricted to their physical platforms; most of the intelligence dictating their behaviour and actions will be in the cloud. This intelligence will be transferable to all robotic platforms, real or virtual. Information, knowledge, and skills will be instantly available everywhere.
We have seen tremendous transformation in technology in the recent years and we are going to see much more in the next decades. This evolution is exponential. The robot developers are the new heroes of science and technology and they know what is coming; They understand technology’s evolution. With the vision of one robot in every home and the interconnected world where all intelligent objects are connected to Internet, the robot developers understand the potential and the opportunities. Some say that there will be 50 billion connected devices by 2020. Our question to you is: how many of those do you think will be robots?
Once robots are connected to the Internet, what is the next logical step? The next step is the Web for Robots where Robot apps will become a multi-billion dollar industry. Developers that will have started to experiment early, sell and build their Brand will have a huge advantage.
How much money will I make?
RobotShop retains 25% of all transactions. You as a developer will receive 75% on every app sold.
Who can participate?
Everybody can!
Behold the three participant types:
-
The Developer: You belong to a new generation of heroes capable of programming robot apps that increase the robots' abilities, intelligence, usefulness, and sometimes silliness. You do it for yourself, and for others in the intent of making money (there is nothing wrong about making money, we like money too). You might be a robotic geek, a seasoned professional, a company or corporation, or a robot in disguise.
-
The Manufacturer: You are an innovative and open minded manufacturer of robots and you are interested in improving your customers' experience by offering add-ons 'à la carte' and value added services. You are also interested in making money by selling the apps and robots.
-
The Robot Owner: You are a tech savvy pioneer paving the way of the future of civilization. You want your robots to be useful and make your life easier; you want them to learn new tricks 'matrix-style'. By downloading a new robot app or connecting your robots to the cloud, you can start reaping the benefits.
Where do I start?
For the apps that will be downloadable and that robot owners will install on their robots or on a computers, you can start to develop right now. You can suggest your robot app via the Support Center, under the App Store department.
We strongly recommend you read about FlowBotics Studio, the perfect tool to create robot apps. You will be soon able to submit and upload your robot apps directly from FlowBotics. Stay tuned.
