Abstract

Research in the field of creating specialized computing systems for robots is conductedin many world scientific centers, including our country. The development of capabilities ofsensor systems, global navigation systems, growth of computing power and improvement ofalgorithms allow creating onboard computing systems with broad intellectual capabilities.An important, but unsolved problem remains the equipping of such computing systems withdomestically produced microprocessors. One of the difficulties hindering the widespreadintegration of domestic hardware is the problem of unification and standardization of thecomponents of the onboard computers. Unification of onboard computer modules would openup new opportunities for developers of robotic systems by reducing the price and simplifyingdevelopment and modernization. This article discusses approaches to the unification andstandardization of elements of onboard computers, describes the experience of the developmentof ANSI/VITA standards in the field of onboard computers, and also provides examplesof computing modules in a unified COM-Express form-factor based on Elbrus microprocessorsfor onboard computers. Experiments were conducted using unified computing modules based on Elbrus-2C3, Elbrus-1C+ and Elbrus-4C microprocessors. Their applicability forcreation of onboard computing complexes is shown. The necessity of developing a domesticstandard for on-board computer housings and form-factors is shown.
