The software graphical user interface integrates an easy to use process designer together with digital twins of every integrated system. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Developed by researchers at the BIBA, this software framework aims to provide an easy to understand programming interface for multiple technical or robotic systems. It was founded by the European Regional Development Fund (EFRE) and the Bremer Aufbau-Bank (BAB). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
