RoboComp is an open-source robotic framework. It is made up of different robotic software components and the necessary tools to use them. The running components form a graph of processes that can be distributed over several cores and CPU's using software component technology. Communications are handled by the Ice framework, following the approach taken by the Orca2 robotics system. Our main goals in designing the system are efficiency, simplicity and reusability. RoboComp also uses in some of its components other tools like CMake, Qt4, IPP, OpenSceneGraph and OpenGL. Programming languages used in the project are mainly C++ and Python but the Ice framework makes possible to easily use components written in many other languages. RoboComp, as ROS, can also be called a robot operating system as long as it provides an abstraction layer to robot hardware...
