Intelligent robot apparatus responsive to environmental change and method of controlling and reconfiguring intelligent robot apparatus

A robot system comprising:

• a service provider;
• a service registry;
• and
• a robot apparatus communicatively coupled to the service provider and service registry, the robot apparatus comprising a control unit, wherein the control unit is configured to execute a set of instructions to implement during operation of the robot apparatus:
• an environment recognition unit that dynamically recognizes a change in an internal environment of the robot apparatus in which one or more components in the robot are changed, or an external environment in which the robot is installed or operated;
• an environment information extracting unit that extracts information about the change in the internal or external environment received by the environment recognition unit to determine a component to be changed;
• a storage unit that stores a component setting file and a component execution
• program that is requested and verified by the control unit to determine if the component setting file and the component execution program correspond to the component to be changed;
• a component manager that configures basic setting between components of the robot apparatus and based on a request by the control unit;
• a command input unit that receives a command or task to be performed by the control unit;
• and
• a component reconfiguring unit that reconfigures components setting files and component execution programs stored in the storage unit,
• wherein when the change is in the internal environment, the change in the internal environment of the robot apparatus comprises occurrence of a fault of the one or more components in the robot, and
• wherein when the change is in the external environment, a parameter with respect to the change in the external environment of the robot apparatus corresponds to a value indicating a number of objects moving around the robot apparatus, or a value indicating a number of obstacles on a moving route of the robot apparatus.
