Graphical Simulation and Visualisation Tool for a Distributed Robot Programming Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Robotics Research Group of the University of Auckland is developing a robot programming environment using a Service Based Architecture [Woo, 2002; Woo et al., 2003] to facilitate the description of robot behaviours. Simulation and visualisation tools allow programmers to test their robot behaviours at early stages and such tools are an important addition to any programming environment. This paper describes the development of a Graphical Simulation and Visualisation (GSV) Tool. Robotic applications can automatically test a specific robot algorithm using the CORBA Service offered by the GSV Tool. A GUI enables a human user to visualise the performance of the robot in a specific virtual environment.

The introduction of open standards in telecommunications has resulted in a rapid expansion in services by allowing different vendors to produce equipment that can interwork successfully. However to ensure that a product adheres to an open systems specification a series of tests, called conformance tests, must be performed. Faults occurring at this stage are expensive to correct and therefore te...

We present a manipulation path planner under development for providing high-level software control for humanoid robots. Using a graphical simulation environment, the software is designed to facilitate the automation of object grasping and manipulation tasks. Given a robot's internal model of the environment and a desired posture, we use a randomized path planner to search directly the congurati...
