Specifications for RapidPlan Control

1.1 RapidPlan Control

...

Standard

RapidPlan Control, a runtime software tool that , streams motions to robot controllers in a robotic cell. Given Due to the real-time nature of the communication, selecting the appropriate suitable hardware is critical to ensure a crucial for robust and reliable system performance of the system. Therefore, we recommend . We advise our customers to utilize use hardware that has been validated by Realtime Robotics.

1.2 RapidPlan Control Dynamic

The add-on RapidPlan Dynamic allows the system to avoid dynamic obstacles. The system takes a point cloud of the environment captured using 3D cameras as an input, and adds these elements to the scene on the fly. Motions that would collide with dynamic obstacles are immediately stopped and force the system to replan.

RapidPlan dynamic requires a dedicated GPU.
