Hello there,

First of all, i'm not sure if this is the correct section, but from all of them this one seemed like the one "less wrong" on here.

I am here asking if you guys know open source software to control a 6 axes Robot.
It does not need to be free, but it must be based on a open standart.

I mostly only need names, i will do the heavy research myself, but if possible add vantages/disadvantages to software you recommend.

The motors to be controlled are normal DC motors, and the positioning of the axes are provided by potentiometers.

Any help is truly appreciated, and i will try myself to add some software to this list until the end of the weekend.

Happy developing, satanicoo.

Have you investigated the following options?:

Option1: RTAI as realtime kernel and controller designed in simulink/matlab or scilab/scicos

Option2: The Orocos Project | Smarter control in robotics & automation!

Linux EMC2 does six axis, and hexapods
