Questions About Programmatically Controlling Robot Motion

Robot Programming
2

You have few different options, including:

  • Write a Python script which controls the robot directly during simulation. Using e.g. the vcHelpers.Robot2 module
  • Write a Python script which generates a robot program using joint motion statements.
  • Use some existing script to generate a robot program, such as Robot Program Pre Processor (uploader)

In all of these cases you probably need some data source. In the first two you could of course generate the data with some custom logic, but might want to e.g. read it from a CSV or Excel file instead. In the last option you need to use an existing robot programming language of your choice.
