Abstract :
The need for robots capable of the execution of complex tasks in minimum time calls for advanced control algorithms. Testing, at a low cost, of different control algorithms on physical systems is highly desirable. This paper discusses the hardware and software requirements to implement a universal controller for a GE P50 robot arm
