Application of the Microsoft robotics studio (MSRS) to the design of a factory safety monitoring robot is presented. Basic structures of the MSRS and the service are introduced. The service is the key building block of the MSRS. Control of the safety monitoring robot is performed using four basic services: 1) the robot service which communicates with the embedded micro-processor and other services, 2) the sensor service that notifies the subscribing services of the change of the sensor value, 3) the motor service which controls the power levels to the motors, 4) the drive service which maneuvers the robot. With built-in capabilities of the MSRS, control of factory safety monitoring robot can be more easily performed.
