Description

Today is a very exciting day for all of us here at HAL Robotics.
It has been a long two years in the making but we are proud to be finally taking the first public step towards the 

1.0 release of the HAL Robotics Framework.

Ready for testing and available to download today are the 1.0-beta versions of the Core feature-set and the Grasshopper client application.
 
This means that from right now you will be able to test and break work-in-progress versions of:

  • Accurate real-time simulation 
  • Trajectory diagnosis including detection of out-of reach and singular positions
  • Motions specified in Cartesian or joint spaces
  • Simulation of blended motions
  • Online preset catalogs accessible from within Grasshopper, of robots, tools and controllers ready to drop in to your scripts
  • Program translation to ABB RAPID, KUKA KRL or Universal Robots URScript
  • Lightweight installer which allows you to add, remove and update extensions to the framework with ease
  • Cloud-based licenses to share between you own computers or your whole organisation
  • User interface adapting to the level of control you require

TRY NOW!

With that we shall let you get started but don’t forget, this is public now so by all means spread the word to anyone you think may also be interested in testing out this new toolkit.

 
Happy programming,
The HAL Robotics Team

Changing status bit on Kuka robots

by Erik Parr

Oct 6, 2015

Hi Thibault, I am having problems changing the status bit in HAL. I changed the Flip settings, which works fine in the simulation but nothing is changed in the code generation. How can I make the flip setting changes appear in the code generation? I am attaching my gh file for reference. Thanks

    Hi Erik,

    You need to force the change of configuration via an absolute joint movement (PTP).

    Best,

    T
