Real-Time Innovations (RTI), the Industrial Internet of Things (IoT) connectivity company, has announced RTI Labs, a free program for customers that provides early access to new technology developed for the IIoT. Customers who take advantage of RTI Labs have the opportunity to optimise their IIoT systems with advanced technical capabilities and potentially influence the RTI product roadmap.
RTI Labs is a mutually beneficial program, fostering open communication and collaborative efforts between customers and RTI technical teams. The program grants end-users insight and access to experimental and complementary software projects, downloads, tools, and the chance to provide feedback to RTI engineers and product managers. With the introduction of this program, RTI has created a mechanism to share the full range of RTI-developed technologies at various development stages, allowing software developers to increase their knowledge and efficiency when architecting IIoT systems of systems, and to reduce the time, effort and resources spent on creating alternative solutions.
RTI Labs includes detailed project descriptions, links to relevant content and documentation, tutorials and videos. It also provides users with the current status of these projects, insight into future plans and notifications of any updates. Users are encouraged to evaluate various aspects of the program and submit feedback directly to the RTI technical team. This feedback will be considered while prioritizing updates and features to include in future product releases, creating a unique customer service dynamic that delivers immediate value to the end-user, providing free technical resources and know-how, and the opportunity to directly influence technology crucial to their IIoT system enablement. It also empowers RTI with insights into evolving customer needs as the company develops RTI Connext DDS for future IIoT systems.
Rti Connext Dds Arm64. 9/12/2019 Data doesn't always have to be big data to have a huge effect on the way we live. Whether it's big data or small data, data management is increasingly a thorny issue.For, data management is at the heart of a key challenge: improving human-to-robot communication to make space exploration easier and safer.'

“Our number one priority as a company is going above and beyond in our customer support and relationships, which was the driving force behind the creation of RTI Labs,” said Jan Van Bruaene, vice president of engineering at RTI. “We encourage our customers to engage with our engineers and speak openly about their unique experiences and processes in implementing our products. This feedback is invaluable and enables us to continue improving the utility of our products and contribution to our customers’ success. We are proud of the user community we have built at RTI and recognise our users’ impact in solidifying our role as a leader in IIoT connectivity software.”
RTI Labs launches with three new experimental projects, each of which offers value to customers across markets:
- This use case shows how RTI Connext DDS can be integrated with the Unity gaming engine to create a dynamic visualization of DDS Data and to show how Unity can be integrated into your DDS-based system. Unity dds rti-connext-dds C# 0 1 0 0 Updated Apr 9, 2021.

- RTI Connector for Connext DDS: A quick and easy way to access the power and functionality of Connext DDS from a variety of different scripting languages, such as Python, JavaScript and Lua. It allows developers to leverage these languages, which are often used to create test suites, to simulate incomplete or unavailable system components, and for rapid development.
- RTI System Designer: Allows users to graphically configure a system that uses Connext DDS. This includes the topics of data being exchanged, the schema for each and the Quality of Service (QoS) offered by each publisher and required by each subscriber. RTI System Designer enables system architects to design and configure their IIoT systems through a graphical interface and eliminates the need to hand-write textual configuration files. It also provides a guided configuration experience that makes it easy to learn Connext DDS concepts.
- RTI Cloud Discovery Service: Provides a discovery mechanism that can be used in environments that do not support multicast, as is sometimes the case with public cloud services and firewalls. In these instances, applications can use RTI Cloud Discovery Service to register their presence and look up their peers. Because the service is only used for discovery and not to broker run-time data exchange, it does not impact system latency, throughput, reliability or resilience.
RTI Labs is free of cost and available today. RTI will be adding additional experimental projects to the program within the next few months, including a feedback mechanism and additional tutorials and videos to support product downloads.
The DDS Web Shapes demo illustrates remote access to the Connext DDS DataBus (the world-leading implementation of the OMG Data-Distribution Service standard) from Web applications. Web applications can use standard web protocols such as plain HTTP (or SOAP over HTTP) to remotely publish and subscribe data on the Connext DDS DataBus. The web-bases applications communicate via HTTP with the RTI Web Integration Service, which acts as a gateway to the Connext DDS DataBus.
Use of the Web Integration Service allows universal access to Data-Distribution Service (DDS) data from any client device. All is required from the device is the ability to communicate over HTTP. The client application does not need to even implement a web server or listen to any sockets. So it is even possible to access the DDS data from behind corporate firewalls. This technology also enables JavaScript applications running inside a web-browser to publish and subscribe data and interoperate with other applications that use DDS for communications. This means that it is now possible to publish and subscribe DDS data and invoke services in the Connext DataBus without the need to install any software in the client device.
Clients can choose among various web-protocols including plain HTTP or SOAP to communicate with the RTI Web Integration Service, the service in turn will use the high performance DDS-RTPS protocol to communicate with other applications in the Connext DDS DataBus.

This particular demo is running the RTI Web Integration Service in the Amazon cloud. The RTI Web Integration Service is communicating with other applications in the cloud which are already publishing and subscribing shapes (Squares, Circles, and Triangles). When you click on the Web Shapes Demo link your browser will render a page contaning some JavaScript and run the Web Shapes UI inside your browser. The JavaScript inside your browser in turn communicates using HTTP with the the RTI Web Integration Service in order to send the requests to publish and subscribe and the data updates that flow as a consequence of those.
