Internet Robot Resources
47
The Internet contains a wide variety of resource pertaining to robots. Virtually all Universities provide
research documents and files on the Internet for those interested. Many contain information about robot
programming, navigation and control issues. This information can be obtained using a Web browser
such as Netscape or via FTP (File Transfer Protocol). Various newsgroups are available that allow
readers to exchange ideas and ask questions.
Arrick Robotics maintains an Internet Web Site at www.robotics.com. At this site you can browse
pages describing various product offerings and view the latest demonstration code and example
programs. You can also send e-mail to [email protected] to get technical and sales questions
answered.
The following information is a sample of robot-related information available on the Internet at the time
