This talk will present the Robot Construction Kit, a software framework for robotic development. The interesting part of the framework is the mixing of C++ components for high-performance and low-latency operations and of Ruby-based tooling for the coordination, adaptation and management of these components.

The talk will be in two parts: (1) description of the general framework ideas and implementation, (2) lessons learned - it runs for more than two years on multiple robots.
