Revision as of 09:31, 8 September 2010

In this section you can download the lattest versions of the BABEL Development Site. Currently they are distributed as binaries for Windows platforms. Work on shifting to open-source multi-platform distribution is in progress.

BABEL v0.39.1 Endymion

BABEL v0.39.0 Endymion

The free version of the BABEL Development System for Win32 platforms that supports the following code generators: Endymion (W32+ACE51TAO11+VC++2008), Hyperion (W32+ACE51TAO11+VC++6), Iapetus (JAVA+OpenORB -experimental-), and Cryo (HTML report generator).

It is also shipped with the MRPT toolkit, the WxWidget libraries and the OpenCV libraries, and includes three sample applications.

Apart from the new generators, the system is used the same as the Hyperion 0.38 version.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

  • Uncompress the files in a path that does not contain spaces or special characters.
  • Do not use spaces or special characters in any of the path you create for generating modules.
  • It has been tested in Windows NT, 2000, XP and Vista. In the latter you must download the msvbvm50.dll and register it in the system with the command line program regsvr32, or maybe just copy it into the BABEL base directory. If you find any other dll missing, the procedure is the same.
  • It has been tested with VC++6.0 in Win NT and XP.
  • It has been tested with VS2008 Professional and Express in Win XP and Vista.

BABEL v0.38-free Hyperion

The most intensively tested configuration of the BABEL tools in our research laboratory: Hyperion (C++, ACE5.1+TAO1.1, Win32). With this version, you can design, implement, and test robotic applications with all the functionality of BABEL.

This compilation also includes the MRPT robotic programming library and the ACE5.1+TAO1.1 free implementation of CORBA as the communication platform. The MRPT version included in this file is v0.5.1. For more information on updating that version to new MRPTs, please visit the MRPT site.

The downloadable file contains the brief installation manual in PDF format.

Robot simulation kit

A zip file containing several modules to test the BABEL free version. These modules simulate a mobile robot and permit the user to command simple movement actions and produce log files.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Some problems have been found with this kit in the newer versions of BABEL (v0.39 and later). It is recommended to not use this kit in those versions: they contain their own kits appropriately tested.

Brief installation instructions

This is a brief installation manual for the most common configuration of the BABEL tools.
