Chapter 19: Robot Programming – Programming for Advanced Applications
Abstract : Robot programming for advanced applications often involves languages like Python, C++, Java, and Lisp, alongside tools like Robot Operating System (ROS) and offline programming software , enabling complex tasks like AI, machine learning, and sophisticated robotic control. Languages and Tools: Python: A versatile language used for scripting, prototyping, and developing the non-critical parts of robotics software, often paired with libraries for image processing and machine learning. C++: A powerful language for developing high-performance, low-level robotic systems, often used for critical tasks and interfacing with hardware. Java: A language well-suited for enterprise-level applications and Android development in robotics, offering platform independence and a large developer community. Lisp: An older language with a resurgence in robotics, particularly for AI and robotic applications, with much of the Robot Operating System (ROS) ...
