Web application developing methodology for managing robotic complexes

The purpose of the study is to develop a web application for control systems of robotic complexes (RTK) using the example of RTK with MP-11 robotic manipulators. The structure of the control system includes a controller on the Arduino Mega 2560 Pro Mini board with a loaded low-level program and an upper-level program. A web application has been selected as a software component. This type of application consists of a server and a client part. Data is exchanged between them over the network using the HTTP protocol. The application is built on the Microsoft .NET platform and the ASP .NET WebForms framework. The web server is a computer connected via a USB cable to the controller and currently used for a desktop application. The description of the web pages of the developed web application and its operation, algorithms of functioning, indicating the specifics of execution for this type of program is given. The program provides manual and automatic operation modes, as well as control of not only the RTK, but also its model. This type of management system involves multi-user mode and network transmission, two types of user rights and authentication have been developed to ensure the security of the complex, as well as antivirus protection, network settings for protection against unauthorized access are used. Guest access allows you to control only the robot model, in order to ensure the safety of the equipment. The main advantages of a web application are its cross-platform nature, i.e. the ability to work on any devices and operating systems, as well as the absence of the need for installation.
