A robotics suite is a visual environment for robot control and
simulation. They are typically an end-to-end platform for robotics development and include tools for
visual programming and creating and debugging
robot applications. Developers can often interact with robots through
web-based or visual interfaces.
One objective of a robotics suite is to support a variety of different robot platforms through a common programming interface. The key point about a robotics suite is that the same code will run either with a
simulated robot or the corresponding real robot without modification.
Some robotic suites are based in
