Abstract

The limitations such as non-universal, interactive blocking and application specificity are common in existing robot programming languages. So, a universal robot programming language based on VB(Visual Basic) scripting language is designed in this paper. The language is aim to achieve the mixed programming of robot instruction and VB scripting language by doing the constructible and interactive design for robot command functions. Finally, a robot language programming motion simulation platform was designed to verify the implementation process of the programming language. Simulation results show the designed robot programming language can realize flexible programming under the Windows platform and further realize complex robot motion control and sensing interaction function, which provides a new way for the practice and extension of robot programming language system.
