摘要

This paper presents the control system of a chess-playing robot developed by the Research Institute of Robots at the Shanghai Jiaotong University. Thanks to the Windows NT operation system and the RTX (Real-Time extension), the whole system can achieve good real-time performance. The control system, which is supported by a standard PC hardware platform and a modularized structure of system software, is open-ended and easily expansible.
