- Currently, I am preparing a robotic lab for undergraduate students.
- I am not familiar with forth, I learnt it briefly ten years ago. I
- remember at that time, someone had proposed to use it in controlling
- robot.
-
- After 10 years, is it true now?
- Is it popular in the robot industrial to use forth in robotic control?
- I only know that prolog is quite suitable for writing a planner for
- robotic.
-
- I am developing a hypercard stack (in Macintosh) for teaching elementary
- concepts on robotic. It is intended for use in an undergraduate course
- in our faculty. It will include instructions in dealing with the
- ESHED ROBOTEC's ER5 & ER7 robot arm. If it succeeded, I will post it
- to the public.
-
- Thanks!
