Systems and methods for automation control

Abstract

Disclosed herein, are systems and methods for generating one or more motion sequences, and/or actuating one or more motion devices according to the motion sequences. The systems and methods may be implemented in an automation environment. The motion sequences may be generated, via a software module, using one or more modular function blocks, each of which may be defined based on one or more parameters. The motion sequences may be generated, and/or the modular function blocks may be defined, graphically using a user interface (e.g., a graphical user interface (GUI)). The motion devices may include any number of motor controlled devices and/or any number of pneumatic controlled devices. Each motion device may be coupled to a respective motion controller, wherein the motion controller is configured to receive the motion sequences via communication with the software module, so as to actuate movement by the motion devices.
