RE: Manipulator control SW in ADA ?

I believe the Livermore laser fusion system is in Ada. If so, the Department
of Energy could release some of the low-level sources. I can understand why
the Government would not wish to make this project open source. However, a
good part of it, such as servo software and stepping motor control, is not
specific to the project.

I might note as a Californian, I believe that expediting this project could
have significant benefit to my standard of living. Opening the sources has
the great virtue of providing free code inspection and help.

HI,
does anyone out there know about an either free or commercially
available software package for controlling manipulators (traject.
generation, inverse kinematics, etc.), that is written in ADA to run
within an rtos environment?

any info appreciated, thanks in advance,
