kcontrol has been developed to have a testbed for 'real-life' experiments within the field of robotics. It controls a miniature robot via a serial link. Some useful widgets have been implemented to assist programmers to integrate their own ideas within the program easily. It can collect information about the internal state of the robot, monitor parameters and displays them on a common X-Display. Various algorithms or controllers can be written and tested simulteanously. New controllers and their algorithms can be derived from a base object which can supply generalized methods for storing and loading parameters, observing the testrun, displaying spezific parameters and controls or allow the change of parameters while running the experiment. A canvas can be used to display graphic data.
