Abstract:

This paper presents an overview of the main features of GENERIS, a generalised software control system for industrial robots developed by the EC-JRC and financed by the EC-DGXIII-D1. After an introduction reporting the project history and its current development and exploitation state, the author analyses the required capability and quality attributes for a modern motion control system for robotics workshops and how GENERIS matches them. Thereafter, the GENERIS system capabilities and distributed architecture are described. The author concludes with the product organisation and the current and planned development activities.
