Realtime Robotics
Realtime Robotics is a Boston-based industrial robotics software company that builds collision-free autonomous motion planning for multi-robot workcells. Its products are RapidPlan (the RapidPlan Create offline programming tool plus the on-premise Realtime Controller that plans and deconflicts robot motion at runtime), RapidSense (a sensor/perception layer that adds dynamic collision avoidance, volumes, markers and change detection), and Resolver (a cloud application that optimises cell layout and cycle time from simulation projects exported through Process Simulate, Visual Components and MELSOFT Gemini connectors). Its integration surface is machine-facing rather than web-facing: an inline-YAML ASCII command API over a TCP socket to the Realtime Controller, a REST interface for RapidSense, PROFINET and CC-Link IE Field Basic fieldbus interfaces for PLCs, and a published JSON Schema for the Resolver Operations Query. A public Resolver Cloud REST API is documented as under development and not yet publicly available.
Realtime Robotics publishes 3 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Robotics, Motion Planning, Industrial Automation, and Manufacturing.
Realtime Robotics’ developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, support, engineering blog, signup flow, authentication, and 21 more developer resources.

name: RapidPlan Realtime Controller ASCII API
description: 'The ASCII API is the primary runtime integration surface for the Realtime Controller. A client opens a TCP
socket to the controller and exchanges inline YAML 1.2 command strings (topic / type / id / data) terminated with CR+LF;
responses come back as inline YAML or, after SetResponseType, as CSV. Version 2.9 documents roughly seventy commands across
four groups: Project (SetResponseType, GetUnits, SetUnits, GetMode, ClearFaults, LoadProject, GetLoadedProject, UnloadProject,
SetDefaultProject, EnterOperationMode, EnterConfigurationMode, Shutdown, UserLog, BeginInterlockRecording, GenerateInterlockData),
Robot (ActivateRobots, DeactivateRobot, Connect, Disconnect, AcquireControl, ReleaseControl, SetMaxLinearAcceleration,
SetMaxLinearSpeed, SetAlternateLocation, SetInterruptBehavior, SetRobotPreset, GetRobotPresets, Move, CombinedMove, CancelMove,
HoldMove, ResumeMove, GetTargets, CreateTarget, UpdateTarget, RenameTarget, RemoveTarget, AddConnection, RemoveConnection,
GetJointConfiguration, GetTCPPose, IsOnTarget), Scene Modeling (GetObjectStates, GetStatefulObjects, SetObjectState, GetFrames,
AddFrame, UpdateFrame, RemoveFrames, AddBox, AddObject, RemoveBoxes, RemoveObjects, Reparent) and the combined SetWorkcellState.
No OpenAPI is published for it.'

name: Resolver Cloud
description: Resolver is Realtime Robotics' cloud optimisation application, reached at app.resolver.rtr.ai (global) and
app-eu.resolver.rtr.ai (Europe). Work is submitted as a .zip study containing a project.yaml workcell description, a cad/
folder and an optional queries.json; Realtime Robotics publishes a JSON Schema for the queries.json Operations Query and
a written specification for project.yaml (rtr_yaml_version 4.2.0). The application's own /api surface is an authenticated
AWS API Gateway (anonymous requests answer 403 Missing Authentication Token) and the documentation states plainly that
the public REST API is under development and not yet publicly available.
