This paper introduces the KUKA Robot Learning Lab at KIT – a remotely accessible robotics testbed. The motivation behind the laboratory is to make state-of-the-art industrial lightweight robots more accessible for education and research. Such expensive hardware is usually not available to students or less privileged researchers to conduct experiments. This paper describes the design and operation of the Robot Learning Lab and discusses the challenges that one faces when making experimental robot cells remotely accessible. Especially safety and security must be ensured, while giving users as much freedom as possible when developing programs to control the robots. A fully automated and efficient processing pipeline for experiments makes the lab suitable for a large amount of users and allows a high usage rate of the robots.

本文介紹了KIT的庫卡機器人學習實驗室 - 一個可遠程訪問的機器人測試平臺。 實驗室背後的動機是使最早進的工業輕型機器人更容易進行教育和研究。這種昂貴的硬件一般沒法供學生或較少特權的研究人員進行實驗。 本文介紹了機器人學習實驗室的設計和操做，並討論了在遠程訪問實驗機器人單元時所面臨的挑戰。特別是必須確保安全性，同時在開發控制機器人的程序時爲用戶提供儘量多的自由。 用於實驗的全自動且高效的處理管道使得該實驗室適合於大量用戶而且容許機器人的高使用率。
