Methods and systems for robot cloud computing are described. Within examples, cloud-based computing generally refers to networked computer architectures in which application execution and storage may be divided, to some extent, between client and server devices. A robot may be any device that has a computing ability and interacts with its surroundings with an actuation capability (e.g., electromechanical capabilities). A client device may be configured as a robot including various sensors and devices in the forms of modules, and different modules may be added or removed from robot depending on requirements. A robot may interact with the cloud to perform any number of actions, such as to share information with other cloud computing devices. A robot's performance of a task can be augmented by a cloud service which contains a data library of elements which are delivered to the robot to help the robot execute actions.
