泛在机器人是由各种软硬件平台组成的，具有不同的功能和接口。在实际意义上，软件代理不可能保存与其他传感器或移动的机器人相关的所有信息。这使得很难开发软件代理，同时，实现整个系统的模块化和可扩展性。本文提出了一种新的多层体系结构，以解决不同的硬件和软件平台之间的互操作性问题，在一个无处不在的环境中提供服务的用户，无论空间或时间的限制。该架构由五层组成，这是根据设备和环境的独立性，模块化，可扩展性和不同的硬件和软件平台之间的互操作性分类。为了显示所提出的架构的一般可行性，本文提出了在一个简化的环境中，通过计算机模拟和实验的案例研究。
Ubiquitous robot consists of various software and hardware platforms with various functions with different interfaces. In practical sense, it is impossible for software agents to hold all information related to other sensors or mobile robots. This makes it difficult to develop software agents and, at the same time, implement both modularity and scalability for the entire system. This paper proposes a novel multi-layer architecture to address the problems of interoperability between different hardware and software platforms in an ubiquitous environment offering services to the user regardless of space or time constraints. The proposed architecture is composed of five layers, which are classified according to device and environment independency, for modularity, scalability and interoperability between different hardware and software platforms. To show the general feasibility of the proposed architecture, this paper presents case studies in a simplified environment by computer simulation and experiments.
