Using an object-oriented programming approach, ROBOOP, a robotic manipulator simulation package which is both platform and vendor independent, compares favourably against a package requiring similar coding effort. Performance tests show that with ROBOOP the class inverse dynamics of a 6-DOF robot can be computed in less than 5 ms with a Pentium 100 MHz computer
