Analyzing the temporal behavior of real-time closed-loop robotic tasks

Abstract

ORCCAD (Open Robot Controller Computer Aided Design), is a development environment for robotic controllers which provides verification and simulation tools along with a graphical human-machine interface, in order to bridge the gap between control laws as understood by the control systems community, and real-time computing as understood by the computer science community. In this paper, we introduce some recent extensions to ORCCAD which make it possible to perform certain kinds of temporal verification of real-time closed loop robotic tasks.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
