    On-board applications development via symbolic user interfaces
    (Springer, 2014) Kumova, Bora İsmail
    becerik is a functional language consisting of symbolic commands for managing and composing applications. Application commands consist of symbols that are associated with reading sensor values, computing those values and executing actuator values. It is the result of a co-design of mechatronic functionality and robotic behaviour. The requirements given for mechatronic functionality were those of simple robotics kits that are used in school education or as toys. The requirements given for the behaviour were to provide a reflexive one, consisting of triggering simple computations and actuations from simple sensor values. becerik currently lives as a leJOS application on NXT robots and enables developing simple applications using the standard display and buttons of the NXT brick. In this paper we introduce the symbolic user interfaces of becerik. © 2014 Springer International Publishing Switzerland.

    Developing Applications On-Board of Robots With Becerik
    (Trans Tech Publications, 2012) Kumova, Bora İsmail; Takan, Savaş
    Robot applications are mostly first developed on a computer and thereafter loaded onto the robot. However, in many situations, developing applications directly on the robot may be more effective. For instance, children who have not learned using a computer yet and who develop their robot applications while playing. Or for instance in the robots' operating environment, where there is no computer available. In this contribution we present the properties of the software tool becerik, for developing applications on-board a robot and for running them in multi-tasking mode concurrently. Furthermore, we introduce the programming language of the applications that has the same name becerik, which consists of only 6 commands. © (2012) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
