Every time, programmers in the process of their work, again and again, press the keyboard buttons, entering multi-page code in text format.
Often these are the same repetitive sets of procedures with instructions and input rules that require programmers to have knowledge of the language, programming environment, experience in error testing and features of hardware communications to devices.The history of the creation of Beeptoolkit (Framework - a software environment for accelerated prototyping and development of robotics, automation and intelligent systems) is the result of many years (over 25 years) of experience of the author - Engineer DevOps Alexander Kapitulskyin many high-tech robotics and automation enterprises, from animal husbandry to medicine and the defense industry, summarize the results of many years of scientific work in the laboratory of the startup Beeptec Engineering (Israel 2019).To date, the framework has been brought to the boxed level, which can be put on the shelves of many specialized distributors.
At the same time, it has been tested in commercial projects, but, alas, has not yet gained popularity among a wide range of potential customers.
Platform design and topology
For the first time - the BEEPTOOLKIT hardware and software platform based on a PC running Windows 10 iOT / LTSC.
It is a desktop atomized programming aggregator for the development and prototyping of automation systems, robotics and intelligent systems, which is installed on PCs, tablets, SBCs or Sticks.
It is both an instrument and a freely programmable real-time controller.
This is a software simulation with no connection or hardware connection using inexpensive USB I/O modules for the required number of input or output channels for collection and control.
This is what the main panel of our multifunctional tool looks like! Customize BEEPTOOLKIT like a joystick for the most addictive games, connect to the outside world of binary logic, create your own automation, robotics and intelligent systems.
To get started, you are provided with a functional I / O simulator that will allow you to determine the future configuration, set up communications and conduct virtual experiments. Next - go to the Script Builder Panel, which opens with one click.
We introduce new concepts to the development world and tools that empower BEEPTOOLKIT users:
👍 Tactile coding of microservices means literally programming on the fly. Your actions look the same as when setting up a coffee machine with a set of recipes that you can edit and save under your name. These microservices can be called automatically anywhere in the main algorithm and their number is not limited.
👉 Computer vision. This function allows you to read colors from an image area and use this data as commands for further control. 👌 👆 160 output and 1600 input configurable channels are at your disposal with trigger functions to collect data and control all kinds of loads according to your ideas.
👆 Unlike game simulations, you connect real hardware and sensors, turn your ideas into real prototypes, including software source code. Ask questions, we are ready to develop a dialogue at an expert level.
Circuit example
Allows you to bring a rather impressive range of robotic ideas to a boxed product, where the hardware is inexpensive modules widely used in a large list from Aliexpress (device drivers, sensors, communicators, etc.).
There is no need to create hardware from scratch, write code and sew it into the MCU with a concomitant bunch of problems that are familiar to all classic developers embedders for Arduino, STM, ESP, Raspberry and other platforms with embedded software.
