ResGreen Group International Inc. unveiled a new Application Programming Interface (API) for its BotWay software that uses REST, an architectural style that makes it easier to integrate with other software systems and applications. REST or RESTful, which stands for Representational State Transfer, is an approach to communications that uses less bandwidth, making it more suitable for efficient internet usage. The REST API makes it easy to retrieve information from BotWay such as where a mobile robot is located, the battery life of connected devices and how long the software has been operating.

The ResGreen team made additional updates to BotWay, such as introducing a new architecture for its command structure that enables integration with a more diverse group of robotic equipment, IoT (Internet of Things) devices and vehicles. The new command structure allows connected technology to use their own syntax to communicate with BotWay. ResGreen also enhanced BotWay by adding a configurable archiving system that backs up important information such as data logs, performance logs and other metrics.
