OpenRTM-aist is a software platform for component-oriented development of robot systems.
OpenRTM-aist is one of the reference implementations of RT-Middleware that AIST has implemented and distributes. It consists of an RT-Component framework to create RT-Components, the RT-Middleware that manages the lifecycle of the RT-Components, tools to generate skeleton code for components and GUI tools to operate and connect RT-Components.
Currently, AIST provides reference implementations for C++, Python and Java, and develops other versions implemented in other languages.
OpenRTM-aist is supported on FreeBSD, Linux and Windows.
