AN ANALYSIS OF THE USE OF THE PYTHON LANGUAGE IN ROBOT APPLICATIONS

Abstract

The paper has analyzed the possibility of using the Python computer language in programming mobile robots. The designed and constructed test stand – a caterpillar mobile robot, enables the testing of wireless control algorithms, responses to events, I/O device programming methods and path selection algorithms. The software applications(client and server) written in the Python computer language have been developed and analyzed. A partial listing of the program source is included. The useful-ness of Python in robot applications was confirmed.
