[comp.robotics] DDCMP protocol code

sdh@monu6.cc.monash.edu.au (Simon Hill) (02/13/91)

I have an AdpetOne robot here that I would like
to communicate with using the DDCMP protocol.

The robot controller has DDCMP built in as part of the VAL-II
language, so I am looking for a PD implementation of the
DDCMP protocol that I can compile and run on the SPARC
workstation (SUN-OS 4.0.3)

Can anyone point me in the direction of the source
code for a DDCMP implementation? Preferably in C

Thanks in advance,

Me too! We have a GM-Fanuc robot with Karel controller.

I can get you C source for DDCMP implementation on a Sun 3/160 which
is talking to an Adept controller.  We also have implementations
(which we've dropped due to their overhead) for communication
between a Karel controller and a VME based system running VxWorks.
There's probably other specific implementations around here as well;
we've got quite a few laboratories/projects here.

If there's enough interest I suppose I could post them; I wait to
see the interest.
