Machinekit is a platform for machine control applications.
Machinekit is portable across a wide range of hardware platforms and real-time environments, and delivers excellent performance at low cost. It is based on the HAL component architecture, an intuitive and easy to use circuit model that includes over 150 building blocks for digital logic, motion, control loops, signal processing, and hardware drivers. Machinekit supports local and networked UI options, including ubiquitous platforms like phones or tablets.
The easiest way to get up-and-running is to install Debian Wheezy and get the binary packages.
Please go to www.machinekit.io for this and all other information, including documentation.
The open-source Machinekit project forked from the open-source LinuxCNC project (http://www.linuxcnc.org) in 2014. At the present time, identifiers such as 'linuxcnc' and 'emc' (the antecedent of linuxcnc) still occur in various places. These occurrences are diminishing with time as the Machinekit codebase and Machinekit documentation evolve.
