Code Generator for RoboSim/CROS Simulators

Type: Project

One of the goals of our work is to develop software for cooperative robotics quickly and easily from design specifications.  The analysis and design tool that we currently use in called agentTool.  In agentTool, developers can analyze and design multiagent and cooperative robotic systems that work together to achieve team goals.  We currently are able to generate Java code from agentTool that creates agent shells that work in multiple multiagent environments.

The goal of this project is to extend the code generation capability of agentTool to create Java code that maps to specific robot interfaces and a suitable communication framework.  A new version of agentTool that includes ontology definition will allow for more complete (and correct) code generation.

Possible platform include RoboSim and CROS simulators.
