A Maplesoft Case Study
Quanser Consulting, a company specializing in advanced control systems for education and industry, faced the challenge of developing complex kinematic and dynamic equations for robotic systems. This process, which was previously done by hand, was extremely time-consuming and prone to error. To overcome this, they turned to the vendor Maplesoft and its product Maple for a more efficient and reliable solution.
Using Maplesoft's Maple, Quanser was able to symbolically develop, test, and verify the necessary equations for robotic control in a fraction of the time. This accelerated their design cycle tremendously, speeding up development by an estimated 10 to 100 times. The solution allowed them to successfully collaborate with CRS Robotics to create the world's first commercially available open-architecture industrial robots. Maplesoft's tool provided critical productivity improvements, saving significant time and money while enabling greater innovation.
