Robot application development software ALMA
act/X is an activeX component library that enables you to develop robotics software or animation applications involving 3D articulated objects (3D simulation software, robot programming software, simulation of machines moving in space, etc). act/X is a tool box including all the mathematical and robotic functions that are necessary to modelize and animate articulated objects in 3D. The main functions available are object modelization, collision detection and automatic robotics trajectory search to avoid obstacles. The activeX format enables the user to use the development language of his choice.
