Robot object-oriented Pascal library: ROOPL

Abstract

The paper presents a manipulator level robot programming language ROOPL implemented as a library of objects (records and methods) in an object oriented programming version of Pascal. ROOPL is located in a classification of robot programming languages. Moreover a brief introduction to object oriented programming methodology is supplied. The robotic system that the language was implemented on is described. A fragment of an exemplary ROOPL program illustrating an execution of simple robotic task is given.
