RCP让机器人与智能体、用户间通信更简单可靠。
Robot Context Protocol (RCP): A Runtime-Agnostic Interface for Agent-Aware Robot Control
- 用统一接口解耦前端操作与后端实现，支持多种部署环境。
- 通过结构化消息和类型校验，确保通信安全可扩展。
- 适合制造、物流、医疗等多智能体协同场景使用。
机器人上下文协议（RCP）是一种轻量级、中间件无关的通信协议，旨在简化机器人系统复杂性，实现机器人、用户与自主智能体之间的无缝交互。RCP提供统一且语义明确的接口，将客户端操作与后端实现解耦，支持物理机器人、云编排器及仿真平台等多种部署环境。基于HTTP和WebSocket传输层，协议定义了基于模式的消息格式，包含读取、写入、执行、订阅等结构化操作。集成运行时自省、异步反馈、多租户命名空间隔离和严格类型验证等功能，确保系统的鲁棒性、可扩展性与安全性。论文详述了RCP的架构、消息结构、接口模型及基于适配器的后端集成策略，并展示了其在制造、物流、医疗等行业的部署实践与适用性。RCP支持复杂多智能体生态中的智能、健壮与安全机器人操作。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
The Robot Context Protocol (RCP) is a lightweight, middleware-agnostic communication protocol designed to simplify the complexity of robotic systems and enable seamless interaction between robots, users, and autonomous agents. RCP provides a unified and semantically meaningful interface that decouples client-facing operations from backend implementations, supporting a wide range of deployment environments including physical robots, cloud-based orchestrators, and simulated platforms. Built on HTTP and WebSocket transport layers, the protocol defines a schema-driven message format with structured operations such as read, write, execute, and subscribe. It integrates features such as runtime introspection, asynchronous feedback, multi-tenant namespace isolation, and strict type validation to ensure robustness, scalability, and security. The architecture, message structure, interface model, and adapter-based backend integration strategy of RCP are described, along with deployment practices and applicability across industries including manufacturing, logistics, and healthcare. RCP enables intelligent, resilient, and safe robotic operations in complex, multi-agent ecosystems.
