Khepera III Toolbox

The Khepera III Toolbox is a collection of scripts, programs and code modules for the Khepera III robot.

A Khepera III Robot.

The toolbox was developed by the Distributed Intelligent Systems and Algorithms Laboratory (DISAL) at EPFL (Lausanne, Switzerland) and comprises:

• Scripts to conveniently upload and run programs on multiple robots.
• Programs to interact with most robot features (e.g. infrared sensors, motors).
• A development environment (using arm-linux-gcc and make) to easily program and compile programs for the robot.
• A very straightforward API to access sensors and actuators on the robot.
• Install scripts to set up WLAN networking and other things.

The toolbox does not need the libkorebot and provides a faster, safer and easier to use implementation of the same functionality.
