Abstract: Cloud Computing as an emerging technology is a new paradigm in Information Technology and has dramatically changed our everyday life. The presentation summarizes the basics of cloud computing, namely the main idea, the definition, the cloud model composed of essential characteristics, service models and deployment models. In the second part of the presentation the possible applications of cloud computing in robotics are outlined with special emphases to robots as a service in cloud computing. Finally some cloud robotics projects are discussed.
In the third part of the presentation the new perspectives of cloud computing based education are discussed. Some higher educational institutions do not have sufficient hardware or software to provide the students full learning environment and experience. This problem is particularly important  in various fields of Engineering Education. Cloud computing provides Service as a Service (SaaS) and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) which allow the students to access the latest technologies with a low budget. Finally some tips for planning Platform as a Service (PaaS), SaaS and Iaas are outlined and some security problems are discussed.
