Monitoring robots in real time with Grafana and other cloud native solutions

Edgardo Peregrino, a freelance developer and robotics enthusiast, shares his journey of integrating robotics projects with cloud-native tools like Grafana, Prometheus, and Jaeger for real-time monitoring. Starting with a Raspberry Pi and progressing through various control methods for his robots, Linus and Torvalds, he expanded his skills by learning about cloud-native technologies in a scholarship program. Peregrino leveraged these tools to create a comprehensive monitoring system using the Flask Python library, Docker, and Kubernetes, enabling him to track robot performance with a Grafana dashboard displaying metrics like response time and processor utilization. His work demonstrates the potential of combining open-source tools with robotics to improve monitoring and diagnostics, with future plans to utilize a Raspberry Pi cluster for even greater innovation.
