SHRDLU Client

The client side of the SHRDLU example used at EuroClojure 2017. You can see a video of the talk here.

What is SHRDLU?

SHRDLU is a NetLogo model that simulates a robotic arm in a block world environment. It demonstrates basic principles of artificial intelligence and robotics within a constrained environment. The model provides a platform for executing a variety of commands to manipulate blocks of different shapes and colors, showcasing the capabilities of the robotic arm to interact with its surroundings.

Features

After using our Socket extension for NetLogo to connect this client to the server-side software you'll be able to access:

• A simulated robotic arm (the "winch") with the ability to pick up, move, and drop blocks on command.
• Commands for direct manipulation of blocks within the environment.
• Customizable parameters for the environment and the winch.

How to Use

1. Setup: Use our Socket extension for NetLogo to connect this client to the server-side software. Then, initialize the client and robotic arm with the setup button.
2. Commands: Use SHRDLU commands to control the robotic arm and manipulate blocks.
3. Experiment: Modify the environment/parameters to observe different behaviors of the robotic arm.

Installation

1. Ensure you have NetLogo installed on your system.
2. Download the shrdlu.nlogo file from the repository.
3. Open the file with NetLogo to start the simulation.
