Robotics on Java Simplified
summary
Robo4J is a modular Java SE framework that runs on Raspberry Pi and Lego hardware, with HW units (Adafruit LCD example) controlled via a Java API and XML or programmatic builders. An autonomous 3D‑printed robot Coff-E scans with a ~$100 laser rangefinder and runs obstacle avoidance; scans are recorded with Flight Recorder and analyzed with a Java Mission Control plugin. Networking uses auto-discovery (multicast) and remote contexts; HTTP unit speaks JSON; demo devices include a remote button‑pusher and live image/video streaming.
