Ineffabelle - an Environment for Interactive Computer Graphic Simulation of Robotic Applications

Abstract

This paper describes an environment developed for interactive computer graphic simulation of robotic applications. The goals of this environment are to make the development of application programs easier and to allow the same models to be used by a variety of application programs. In this environment, standard models of work cells, robots, sensors, and other entities can be created. These models can be extended to include user-defined properties of individual entities. Functions are provided to access the data in these models, to manipulate the data with computer graphic animation, and to perform other simulation tasks.
