ABSTRACT

This two-part paper describes the author's recent experiences with robot control systems. First, three principal programming techniques are reviewed, including dedicated robotics languages; machine tool languages; and general purpose computer programming languages. Then, unconventional languages for robot control, such as PostScript and Java, are discussed. In the next installment, the use of Forth as an object-oriented language to develop the author's multiprocessor android control system is explored.
