A generalised software control system for industrial robots

摘要

This paper presents an overview of the main features and the software architectural design of a generalised software control system for industrial robots, named GENERIS. After an introduction explaining the project history and its current development and exploitation state, the authors analyse the required capability and quality attributes for a modern motion control system for robotics workcells. This paper explains the functional model and the architectural design approach. Finally, the authors conclude with the GENERIS product organisation and the current and planned development activities.
