A set of tools which allow beginners to program robots easily and efficiently

Aseba is an event-based architecture for real-time distributed control of 
mobile robots. It targets integrated multiprocessor robots or groups of 
single-processor units, real or simulated. The core of aseba is a 
lightweight virtual machine tiny enough to run even on microcontrollers. 
With aseba, we program robots in a user-friendly programming language 
using a cozy integrated development environment.
