Variable Algorithmic Language (VAL) is a computer-based control system and language designed specifically for use with Unimation Inc. industrial robots. The VAL robot language is permanently stored as a part of the VAL system. This includes the programming language used to direct the system for individual applications.
The Kilobot placed first in the roaming category of the 2012 African Robotics Network $10 Robot Design Challenge, which asked engineers to create low-cost robots for educating children in developing countries. [5] The Kilobot was created for the purpose of making a cheap swarm-bot more affordable to the general public.
Unimate 500 PUMA (1983), control unit and computer terminal at Deutsches Museum, Munich PUMA arm at NASA. The PUMA (Programmable Universal Machine for Assembly, or Programmable Universal Manipulation Arm) is an industrial robotic arm developed by Victor Scheinman at pioneering robot company Unimation.
RoboMind is a simple educational programming environment with its own scripting language that allows beginners to learn the basics of computer science by programming a simulated robot. In addition to introducing common programming techniques, it also aims at offering insights in robotics and artificial intelligence.
The HLA v2.x language system is a command-line driven tool that consists of several components, including a shell program (e.g., hla.exe under Windows), the HLA language compiler (e.g., hlaparse.exe), a low-level translator (e.g., the HLABE, or HLA Back Engine), a linker (link.exe under Windows, ld under Linux), and other tools such as a ...
Open source robotics means that information about the hardware is easily discerned, so that others can easily rebuild it. In turn, this requires design to use only easily available standard subcomponents and tools, and for the build process to be documented in detail including a bill of materials and detailed ('Ikea style') step-by-step building and testing instructions.
MATLAB is a high-level programming language for numerical computing, data acquisition, and analysis. It can control Lego NXT robots over a Bluetooth serial port (serial port communication is part of the base functionality of MATLAB) or via USB. [18] (free & open-source). Simulink is a block-diagram environment for modeling and simulating ...
A Manufacturing Language (AML) is a robot programming language created by IBM in the 1970s and 80s, for its RS 1 robot and other robots in its Robot Manufacturing System product line. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] The systems were used in factory automation by customers such as Plessey and Northern Telecom . [ 5 ]
