The new major version CIROS 7.1 is here! Over 550 improvements compared to the previous version enable even smoother workflows and lead to success faster. The new change management enables the automated transfer of revised process plannings into robot programs. The robot programs themselves can now be provided with breakpoints for convenient debugging. The logging of simulation data has been extended once more. For individual requirements, users can now easily add their own functions to the software. These functions are programmed in Python, which now offers access to many model elements via 275 functions.
