====== CRAM: Cognitive Robot Abstract Machine ====== CRAM is a toolbox for designing, implementing and deploying software on autonomous robots. The framework provides various tools and libraries for aiding in robot software development as well as geometric reasoning and fast simulation mechanisms to develop cognition-enabled control programs that achieve high levels of robot autonomy. CRAM also provides tools for introspection that enable the robots to reason about their past executions and improve by autonomously optimizing their plans. The core packages of CRAM are implemented in Common Lisp (with a little bit of C/C++) with support to the ROS middleware infrastructure. ===== CRAM Applications ===== === Household application ===
