This book takes a hands-on, simplified approach to building scalable robotic systems using Terraform for infrastructure and Python for logic. This book eliminates unnecessary complexity, offering practical techniques such as storing binary data in Amazon S3 to trigger AI-based workflows-allowing you to move swiftly from prototype to production.

In this book, you'll learn how to set up a ROS2-based camera with servo motors, process images using AI models hosted on AWS, and trigger automated actions with Lambda functions and DynamoDB. Each chapter walks you through real-world implementations, providing Terraform code for deploying serverless components. You'll discover how to manage data streams, run AI-powered object detection, and send movement commands to ROS2 devices-all while maintaining a fully integrated cloud-robotics workflow. Rather than isolating cloud and robotics concepts, this book presents a practical, end-to-end approach with code snippets and best practices for seamless deployment.

By the end of this book, you'll have a repeatable framework for using AWS services and AI agents to control and manage ROS2 devices-without the need for complex IoT setups. Whether you're a robotics enthusiast or a cloud developer, you'll gain the confidence to build scalable, cost-effective, real-time robotics applications that respond to real-world events effortlessly.
