16		-|(% colspan="2" style="width:400px" %)FlowBotics Studio is a new development platform for robotics software: it boasts the powerful FlowBotics graphical programming language, and includes many demo robotics projects to get you started. It can be used to control just about any robotics platform, data acquisition board, motor controller, servo board, sound card, or webcam.

	19	+FlowBotics and the stand-alone APPs which it can create are intended to run on Windows-based operating systems and communicate in real time via a computer's COM port (ex. USB or Bluetooth) with external devices. FlowBotics is not intended to be uploaded to a microcontroller, FPGA or other controller.

18		-FlowBotics Studio includes hundreds of built-in components that allow you to interface your PC to many of the standard computer peripherals and, using the FlowBotics programming language, you can quickly create new components for new hardware. You can also easily create new projects with custom GUI screens, knobs, buttons, switches, etc. that will run live from within FlowBotics Studio without needing to wait for compilation.

20		-Using the FlowBotics programming language is as easy as dragging new components out of the library into the project's schematic, and making green links to connect one component's output of another one's input. FlowBotics even has support for writing custom modules in Ruby, a traditional procedural language.

24		-There is a growing collection of pre-made demo projects for use with your robotics hardware: the demos range from GUIs for simple interface card and sensor — that give you access to real-time analogue and digital signals — to full-blown robotics control applications — that have visual representations of your robots that can be manipulated directly with the mouse: the project calculates the inverse kinematics and moves the robot immediately.
